La aplicación del principio de oportunidad y la reparación integral

Abstract

The problem regarding deficient integral reparation to the victim, has not been a generalized issue since the Integral Organic Penal Code regulates a penalty for the transcendence of the crime committed, whose sentences range from fifteen days in prison and with a ceiling of forty years if the active subject of the crime has committed an offense with some type of aggravating circumstance. However, there are crimes known to be doctrinaire as bagatelle and Ecuadorian criminal law has included speed for the actions of the prosecutor to discretionally apply the principle of opportunity; that it be understood that the discretionality to which I refer is with respect to the power granted by the norm to apply the aforementioned principle simply by looking at state circumstances, the sentence and the health condition of the active subject of the crime; leaving aside a constitutional right of the victim, to be repaired for having been affected his legal protected property; However, the latter may well claim by the civil jurisdiction, but the legislator has included several verbs in the Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador. as is the repair without further delay; therefore, the proposal is aimed at including a reform in the Ecuadorian criminal legislation that guarantees that the victim ends her ordeal in seeking to seek redress through the civil courts.
