Une cuisine juridique : les « assaisonnements » et les (mauvaises) saveurs de la production de preuves documentaires dans les procédures de pension de retraite rurale devant les Cours fédérales spéciales

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the production of documentary evidence in rural minimum retirement age cases, in the Federal Small-Claims Courts, in Sobral, Brazil. With the research, we concluded that judges occupy a central position in the production and classification of documents, as they value and hierarchize, in a particular way, consequently contributing for the maintenance of the structure of free conviction and the inquisitorial logic of the Brazilian procedural system.
