The goal of this dissertation is to analyse the new discipline of repetitive demands, brought by art. 976, CPC. The adoption of this mechanism shows the value of iguality in decisions and the urgent need to manage the number of causes which are causing many difficulties for a fast and equal solution. The new mechanism can be apllied to demands similar to class actions and the result is more equality despite of the injustice brought by the application of art. 16, LACP, which is against national constitution because restrict res iudicata in a certain territory.
