Derecho de defensa, inmoralidad e injusticia

Derecho de defensa, inmoralidad e injusticia

Abstract

The adversarial system of adjudication and the right of defense are morally justified (Fiss, 1999), however, from a critical role of the lawyer (cf. Kennedy, 1986) it has been said that the one who agrees defending an immoral cause commits itself an immoral action (Rivera Lopez, 2010). By the method of logical and conceptual analysis, this work defends the idea that it is not morally wrong, as a lawyer, to accept the defense of a client who claims not to be condemned, regardless of whether or not to be condemned. The argument rests on the distinction between action that should make the client and the action to defend themselves in court. The conclusion of this work is that this distinction allows to argue that the act of accepting the defense of a client is not immoral, but there may be moral reasons to refrain from defending it.

El sistema adversarial de adjudicación y el derecho de defensa están justificados moralmente, sin embargo, desde una postura crítica sobre el rol del abogado se afirma que quien acepta defender una causa inmoral comete a su vez una acción inmoral. Este trabajo defiende la idea de que no es moralmente incorrecto, como abogado, aceptar la defensa de un cliente que afirma que no debe ser condenado, independientemente de si debe o no ser condenado. El argumento central del trabajo distingue entre la acción que debería realizar el cliente y la acción de defenderse en juicio para no ser coaccionado injustamente. Discutiré que esta distinción contribuye a sostener que el acto de aceptar la defensa de los derechos de un cliente no es inmoral, aunque pueden existir razones morales para abstenerse de defenderlo.
