Incidencia del tipo penal de incumplimiento de decisiones legítimas de autoridad competente en el cantón Cañar dentro del año 2022

Abstract

This research aimed to identify the incidence of Non-Compliance with Legitimate Decisions of Competent Authority in the Cañar canton in 2022 since there is no known study about the incidence of this crime in the location. The methodology used was non-experimental, cross-sectional, and descriptive. It started with a mixed approach employing dogmatic-legal, deductive, comparative, and analytical-synthetic methods. The research techniques included data collection, literature review, and documentary review of the complaints filed in the Cañar Prosecutor's Office. This work studied this crime and added to the field research conducted in the Cañar Prosecutor's Office; 23 complaints were found, fifteen were in the state of preliminary investigation, one was in fiscal instruction, two were for trial, and two were sentenced for this crime in 2022. It was also determined that most cases prosecuted by the Prosecutor's Office regarding this offense are due to alleged non-compliance with court orders, restricted orders, and non-appearance at hearings. The limitations included the lack of access to three case files within this entity, which were presumed lost; however, this article was completed. The work is original, as no studies on the incidence of this crime in the canton have been found; thus, it was necessary to use statistical techniques to investigate the incidence.
