Resumo: | The main objective of this article is to compare the performance of small claims courts in the Brazilian State Courts, from 2009 to 2016, from the point of view of production and productivity. Small Claims courts are aninstitutional framework created in response to pressures arising from problems of judicial slowness and lack of access to justice in Brazil. Recent critics, however, warn that this model of justice already seems to suffer from the same slowness that it sought to combat. The present research seeks to offer contributions to the study of Brazilian judicial performance and to focus the discussion in the context of the small-claims courts. Official secondary data were analyzed using panel econometric regression, using as a dependent variable the Productivity Index of Judges in the Small-Claims Courts. As independent variables, the following ones were used: total number of judicial servants, total number of judges, new lawsuits and workload. The results indicate that the growth of new cases over the years has led to a smaller increase in productivity, while an increase in the number of magistrates is related to a deterioration in the performance of small claims courts. The research complements previous studies with a similar objectives and points to weaknesses in the model of the small claims courts that need to be addressed. |

Os juizados especiais são um marco institucional em resposta às pressões oriundas dos problemas de morosidade e da falta de acesso à justiça no Brasil. Críticas recentes, contudo, alertam que esse modelo de justiça já parece sofrer da mesma morosidade que almejou combater. A presente pesquisa busca preencher uma lacuna de estudos escassos voltados para a avaliação do desempenho judicial brasileiro. Dados secundários oficiais foram analisados por meio de técnica econométrica de regressão em painel, utilizando como variável dependente o Índice de Produtividade dos Magistrados nos Juizados Especiais e, como variáveis independentes, total de servidores da área judiciária, total de magistrados, casos novos e carga de trabalho. Os resultados indicam que o crescimento dos casos novos, ao longo dos anos, tem ocasionado o aumento, em menor proporção, da produtividade, enquanto que o aumento do quantitativo de magistrados está relacionado a uma piora no desempenho dos juizados especiais. A pesquisa complementa estudos prévios de objetivo similar e aponta para fragilidades do modelo dos juizados que precisam ser enfrentadas.Rede de Estudos Empíricos em Direito2019-12-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/article/view/34910.19092/reed.v6i3.349Brazilian Journal of Empirical Legal Studies; Vol. 6 No. 3 (2019): Brazilian Journal of Empirical Legal Studies; 231-250Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito; v. 6 n. 3 (2019): Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito; 231-2502319-081710.19092/reed.v6i3reponame:Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direitoinstname:Rede de Pesquisa Empírica em Direito (REED)instacron:RPEDporhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/article/view/349/238Copyright (c) 2019 Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direitoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Jeovan AssisFerreira, Guilherme VianaPrata, Ana Aires2020-01-31T02:53:53Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/349Revistahttps://reedrevista.org/reedONGhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/oaimvchein@gmail.com||reed.revista@gmail.com2319-08172319-0817opendoar:2020-01-31T02:53:53Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito - Rede de Pesquisa Empírica em Direito (REED)false |
