Courthouse buildings do not usually play a significant role in most socio-legal research on law-and-courts; and where the courthouse buildings have been considered, authors often take for granted the need for a ritualized adjudicative process within a certain kind of building, usually a pompous and prominent one. My aim, nevertheless, is to discuss the law buildings, and their internal configuration, where the specialized jurisdiction of family and children justice is rendered, in Portugal. This article will thus consider the discrepancies between the courthouses in books and the courthouses in action, or how they are legally designed and concretely structured, and lived, by giving voice to court professionals (judges and prosecutors) and court users, pointing out the problems and needs they have identified, and the claims they make.
Los palacios de justicia no suelen desempeñar un rol significativo en la mayor parte de las investigaciones sociojurídicas sobre el derecho y los juzgados; y allí donde esos edificios se han tomado en consideración, los autores han solido dar por hecho que existe la necesidad de un proceso adjudicativo ritualizado en un cierto tipo de edificio, normalmente uno pomposo y destacado. Mi objetivo, sin embargo, es reflexionar sobre los palacios de justicia donde se imparte la justicia de familia y sobre menores de edad en Portugal, y sobre su configuración interna. El artículo tomará en consideración las discrepancias entre los palacios de justicia en los libros y los palacios de justicia en acción, o cómo están diseñados jurídicamente y cómo se estructuran de forma concreta, y cómo son habitados, dando la palabra a profesionales del derecho (jueces y fiscales) y usuarios del juzgado, señalando los problemas o necesidades que han identificado y las reclamaciones que presentan al respecto.
