CONTUMACY AND EXTRADITION AS OBSTACLES TO THE CALCULATION OF THE LIMITATION PERIOD OF THE ACTION IN THE PERUVIAN CRIMINAL CODE
Abstract
The criminal action’s prescription suspension arises from the configuration of an obstacle that turns the criminal prosecution procedure impossible to continue, as it follows from the Criminal Code, article 84, first paragraph. Before this norm’s modification by Law N.° 31751, a
typical moment of termination was expressly established. However, it is after this that, through its new second paragraph, the controversy about the duration of the suspension term due to contumacy and extradition processes came to an end, imposing a one-year legal material term for this purpose.
