O PRINCÍPIO DA AUTONOMIA DA VONTADE NA AUTOCOMPOSIÇÃO JUDICIAL

Abstract

This paper seeks to demonstrate the need to use auto-composition methods for conflict resolution, focusing on the role of the lawyer as a collaborator in this process. Thus, this study is based on the following questions: What is the influence of the Principle of Will Autonomy in self-composition methods? Are the self-composition methods being respected and encouraged in the Court of Justice of Goiás? What is the lawyer's role in valuing these methods? A possible hypothesis to answer these questions would be that autocomposition methods are not being widely used. The general objective of this study, then, is to demonstrate the relevance of the Principle of Autonomy of the Will in self-compositional solutions, as instruments of justice, in order to privilege them, based on the quantitative analysis of the conciliations and mediations carried out at the Court of Justice of Goiás. This was carried out through quantitative exploratory bibliographic research and the search for quantifiable aspects in numbers. It is concluded, then, that the expected hypothesis was confirmed through the research, demonstrating that the numbers of processes solved by means of autocomposition methods are still below expectations.
