RETIFICATION OF THE CIVIL REGISTRATION AND THE ADVANCES OF LEGISLAÇÃO NA DEJUDICIALIZAÇÃO

Abstract

The purpose of this article was to provide objectivity and clarity regarding the rights of people who wish to change their civil name. At a national level, due to a lack of knowledge and good guidance, many people have difficulty in accessing their rights in a simple way. In order to simplify the subject, the theme of this article was an eminently theoretical study. First and foremost, the theoretical and historical context was addressed, with characteristics of the right to personality and name, followed by the possibilities of change provided for in current Brazilian legislation, taking into account Law No. 14,382/2022, which brought about relevant changes regarding the extrajudicial activity carried out by Civil Registry officers of Natural Persons, aiming to understand in which possibilities it is possible to meet requests related to the change, replacement or addition of name or first name in civil records and, also, what procedure to follow (administratively), to carry out such acts, with the aim of dejudicializing.
