Jurimetria e o artigo 926 do Código de Processo Civil: análise da taxa de reversibilidade do Tribunal de Justiça do Pará

Abstract

The 2015 Brazilian Code of Civil Procedure (CPC) consolidated relevant mechanisms aimed at standardizing case law, particularly through Article 926, which enshrines the principles of stability, consistency, and integrity of the legal system. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of this provision still faces structural and cultural challenges within the Brazilian Judiciary, underscoring the need for more in-depth analysis. In this context, the present study addresses the research problem of examining how the use of legal analytics, combined with the standardization and application of judicial precedents, can enhance the effectiveness of Brazil’s precedent system. The central hypothesis is that the systematic application of legal analytics, when integrated with procedural techniques provided by the CPC/2015, can improve the coherence of judicial decisions and reduce repetitive litigation, thereby promoting greater judicial efficiency. To achieve this, the research adopts a theoretical-analytical and documental approach, grounded in legal doctrine, legislation, and statistical data extracted from the Court of Justice of the State of Pará. The study examines the normative and philosophical foundations of the precedent model, identifies the main practical obstacles to its implementation, and evaluates institutional experiences in the use of judicial metrics. The findings indicate that, although still in its early stages in Brazil, the incorporation of legal analytics into judicial practice has significant potential to strengthen decision- making predictability, resulting in fewer appeals and reversals and, consequently, fostering greater legal certainty and stability.
