Abstract

This article presents the provisions of the new Code of Civil Procedure concerning the grant of procedural gratuity, from the perspective of access to justice and the effectiveness of the jurisdiction. Two themes are especially considered: the profile of the beneficiary of gratuity and the requirements and procedures needed for the benefit to be granted. A comparison with the previous legislation is made, noting progress was made in the new legal text, which should contribute to a more effective access to justice and the reduction of appeals and other procedural issues.
