FAULT - Violation due to erroneous assessment of the evidence or unjustifiably excluding it from
assessment/fault effect due to improper assessment of the evidence - Probationary
valuation/configuration
The very exceptional and restricted intervention of the guardianship judge in evidentiary matters
of the proceedings before other jurisdictions can only be aimed at guaranteeing and/or restoring
the fundamental constitutional rights that have been transgressionally violated in the respective
proceedings and where there is no mechanism of correction. From the parameters of the Political
Constitution, it is imperative that the judicial branch properly and timely fulfill its function of
resolving conflicts, always in a fair manner and, in this way, the factual defect does not point to
another evaluation of the evidence, nor to questioning its power of conviction, but rather to the
fact that in its practice, argument and estimation has been made with full respect for the
fundamental rights of the participants.
