“The precedent of the Constitutional Court and the binding nature of the jurisprudence of the SCJ brought to us by Law 2-23, on Appeal of Cassation, have changed the system of sources of the Right Dominican, transforming a Law legislative in a mixed, jurisprudential and legislative law,” he said.
He noted that in his latest bibliographical works on jurisprudence he has made an exhaustive assessment of this transformation process, almost three decades after the installation of the Social Status in the Dominican Republic.
“The next work that I will publish next year demonstrates this, it will be a Glossary of the Contentious-Administrative Process that compares the jurisprudence of the SCJ with that of the TC”, he advanced.
