The present work aims to analyze the theory of actio libera in causa and its applicability in the Brazilian legal system according to the jurisprudence of the Superior Court of Justice. The theme of the research arose due to the concern during graduation, when verifying the existence of a great doctrinal clash about the theory, since, for some, its use is possible to observe the respect for the principle of culpability, while, for others, it would be the revival of objective criminal responsibility. The main focus is to discuss whether the Superior Court of Justice admits the reception of the actio libera in causa to the Brazilian legal system, as well as to analyze the ratio decidendi present in the examined judgments. A bibliographical, jurisprudential and documental research was carried out, allowing to verify that the STJ affirms the acceptance of the actio libera in causa by the Penal Code, regardless of the typical criminal figure practiced, provided that the agent's state of unimputability, present at the time of the action or omission, resulted from previous free and conscious conduct.
