The application of the principle of immediacy in the administrative approval process in the Ecuadorian context.

Abstract

The investigation focuses on the principle of immediacy in the procedures for challenging approval resolutions in the administrative jurisdiction of Ecuador; an issue that has generated debate by questioning whether this principle, common in judicial processes, is applicable in administrative procedures governed by the Organic Administrative Code. The objective is to evaluate the validity and applicability of the principle of immediacy in administrative processes in light of constitutional principles. The methodology used is qualitative and empirical-legal, using inductive, exegetical, and hermeneutical methods to analyze in detail the role of immediacy in administrative processes. The results highlight the reluctance of justice operators to effectively apply the principle of immediacy.
