Judges had increased to 663, that is, 21 judges for each judge. “There are 21 judges making decisions daily for each judge who will receive appeals and incidents arising from these first instance decisions of the Federal Court”, he says. Even considering that only 13% of cases judged in the first instance became appeals distributed for trial in court in 2021 and taking into account the greater complexity in the processing of cases in relation to appeals, the workload of second-instance judges is still greater than that of first-degree students. In 2021, an average of 1,921 cases were distributed to each judge, and 5,291 appeals to each judge.
According to José Amilcar Machado, the disproportion between the first and second level of the Federal Court of the 1st Region was also reflected in the ever-exponential increase in demand, consequently generating a significant increase in the congestion rate – an indicator that determines the percentage of cases that remained in relation to the total number of cases processed per year in court –, the workload and the averag Luxembourg Phone Number e processing time of cases in the TRF-1. The numbers, however, show greater demand pressure in the first grade. Judges always manage to judge more cases than they receive. In 2021, for example, the volume of cases judged was 15% greater than that distributed. The first instance registered a deficit of 9% in the ratio between distributed and judged cases. In any case, in both the first and second instances the collection has grown year after year – 7% in the second instance and 21% in the first between021.
The president of TRF-1 also highlights that the electronic process and new technologies, such as the Virtual Counter, the 100% Digital Court, the 4.0 Justice Centers, remote hearings and virtual trials, represent a potential increase in judicial demand, “as they bring in its philosophy, greater access for those under jurisdiction”. “This increase in demand is very representative of the 1st Region, which has under its jurisdiction the most destitute regions and the most distant territories that are difficult to access by road.” For him, the bill that provided for the transformation of substitute judge positions into judge positions in the five regional federal courts had the power to improve the judicial provision of the second instance. The shortage of servers is one of the main bottlenecks in improving the performance of the TRF-1 in the first instance, which for years has received more cases than it judges.
