What are the consequences of using atypical measures in civil enforcement of food?
The present research tried to investigate the relations between the Brazilian civil
execution with the named general enforcement clause provided for in art. 139, IV of
the Brazilian Civil Procedure Code (Law 13.1052015), trying to test hypotheses such
as (1st) if the typical coercive measures such as civil imprisonment and the notary's
protest of the maintenance decision are insufficient to safeguard the performance of
food obligations. ; (2) if atypical measures of restriction of rights such as suspension
of the right to drive, suspension of passport and restriction of use of the social network
are less burdensome than civil imprisonment, and also (3) if a particular atypical
measure cannot be prohibited a priori. The research methodology used in this work
to test the hypotheses was dogmatic, as it is the one that best suits the research
problem, based on the performance of a critical analysis of the principles of civil
execution, such as the least costly as opposed to the greater effectiveness, still going
through the problems found in each of the typical executive measures. It was also
analyzed what contributions the unnamed measures can bring to the realization of
debtor and creditor rights. The results found partially confirmed the first hypothesis,
confirmed the second hypothesis since in the context of execution of maintenance
the typical measure of civil prison in closed regime can be more severe than the rights
restrictions listed throughout the work and denied the third hypothesis because the
impediment to carrying out a contest is disproportionate.
