O quesito genérico da absolvição nos Tribunais do Júri: a soberania dos veredictos e a apelação por decisão contrária às provas

Abstract

This paper seeks to analyze one of the special procedures of Criminal Procedure, the Jury Tribunal, especially with regard to the questioning of jurors, focusing on the generic question of acquittal. It is questioned whether, by adopting the generic and subjective question, the legislation validates the principle of the sovereignty of verdicts and the jury's intimate conviction. Finally, the paper addresses the possibility or not of an appeal based on a decision manifestly contrary to the evidence in cases of acquittal on a generic issue.
