ANTONIO GARCIA, Pedro  y  ACEVEDO PRADA, Milena. THE DOCTRINE OF THE COLOMBIAN CONSTITUTIONAL COURT ON EVIDENT PROCEDURAL EXCESS IN MATTERS OF EVIDENCE (2001-2011). Vniversitas [online]. 2013, n.127, pp.127-156. ISSN 0041-9060.

Eleven years have passed since the Constitutional Court of Colombia began to evident procedural excess (Case T-1306, 2001).In this figure, the work presented here argues that there are two variants, one of which is directly related to the evidentiary ISSue. In this sense, i.e., when evident procedural excess is preached as an error of the trial judge related to the topic of evidence, and more accurately when reviewing writ he is forced to practice a certain number of them it is hard not to conclude that with regard to evident procedural excess we are taking over guardianship to a form of last resort in terms of proof, and not only for the protection of fundamental rights. Moreover, it can be argued that the Constitutional Court, under the idea that the judge has a duty to pursue the truth, and above all find it, he ventures into the relevant facts of each case which involves evident procedural excess or, at least, suggests precisely the way forward for the trial judge to give the fundamental right to a party. However, It be must be said that this incursion by the constitutional judge in matters of the ordinary headquarters, is due to, in part, and within the strict limits of the figure discussed here, the fact that in Colombia on matter of evidence we share two systems : the inquisitorial and regulatory system; equally, to the way some rules of procedural law (especially related to - the duty ofjudges to decree evidence) are expressed, but above all, to an understanding of what the process itself means in relation to the protection of fundamental rights and the prevalence of substantive law.
