Abstract

This paper focuses on a line of jurisprudence developed by the Supreme Court in recent years, which offers an argument aimed at accepting the principle of ductility of the forms through a «flexibilization» or «ductility» of the expiration period set for the filing of a remedy of protection, the latter in lieu of the existence of reasonable circumstances, as well as a result of the infralegal rank of the rules that set such procedural limitation, allowing us to evaluate the relevance of this judicial opinion from the guarantee standard of Latin American Constitutional Procedural Law.
