Law
  • ApresentaçãoPresentation
    The Criminal Procedural Law II course covers the study of criminal procedural dynamics and the progression or conduct of proceedings in their various forms, including the system of criminal appeals. The course will be delivered through two types of classes: theoretical classes and practical classes. The so-called theoretical classes will consist, essentially, of theoretical presentations on the subjects included in the course syllabus. In addition, there will be practical sessions in which students will analyse and resolve practical cases - whether fictional or real - critically examine and evaluate judicial decisions, draft and critically analyse procedural documents, and engage in debates on topical or contentious issues relating to the subject matter of the course.

  • MetodologiaMethodology
    In all subjects, students are given the opportunity to engage with real-world cases in real time, as well as to discuss them. Students with special status, as provided for by law or regulations, who are not required to attend classes but who wish to be assessed under the continuous assessment scheme, must inform the lecturer of the course unit as soon as they become aware of this fact, but always at least 90 days before the end of the term, so that the lecturer can arrange an alternative form of assessment or monitoring, which may involve a written assignment, the submission of reports and/or an oral examination.
