Abstract:
Due process and legal certainty are constitutional principles. In the process of
extrajudicial usucapion, rare vagueness persists that threaten these principles. The
general objective of this work was to outline a position regarding one of these
vagueness. The § 7 of art. 216-A of LRP says that the doubt procedure is applicable
in any case. But at what point, before or after the registrar's final decision? Starting
from the bibliographic method and the systematic interpretation of the law, it was
concluded that, in cases where there are disagreements of the interested parties with
a certain interlocutory decision of the registrar, this doubt procedure will be applicable
soon after that decision is made.
