Participação no processo judicial: Arranjos subjetivos e modalidades de atuação

Abstract

This thesis analyzes the system of participation in lawsuits. Initially, it seeks to identify the characteristics and trouble spots in the classical model of multiparty and third-party lawsuits, highlighting the shortcomings of the traditional system. Once this diagnosis has been made, the paper seeks to introduce directions that may guide a restructuring of procedural rules, which is to say, diversity, responsibility and flexibility. Secondly, this study sets out to develop proposals that allow for alterations and new arrangements for the interested parties, dealing with themes such as procedural succession, integration of co-parties and intervention by third parties. This thesis also aims to identify the conditions that allow intervention in lawsuits, aiming to identify and categorize the various forms of participation, including those that occur in a non-apparent manner, and to introduce a set of adequate procedural rules.
