RESUMEN: La reforma al proceso civil abre el debate acerca de la necesidad de trasladar los costos de la misma a los sujetos que mayores litigios promueven. El presente trabajo pretende indicar algunas de las tesis más relevantes a la hora de realizar esta discusión avanzando algunas de las consecuencias que acarrea la adopción y la no adopción de tasas judiciales en nuestro sistema a través de algún rasgo en el derecho comparado. En este contexto, se interrelacionan conceptos tanto de derecho procesal y tributario como constitucional que deben ser valorados por nuestro legislador antes de tomar la decisión que puede cambiar la gratuidad de la Justicia en Chile.
Palabras Clave: Tasas Judiciales, Gratuidad de la Justicia, Reforma Procesal CivilABSTRACT: Civil procedure reform opens the debate about the need to shift costs to those subjects who litigate the most. This paper attempts to address some of the most relevant arguments foreseeing some of the consequences of introducing or not court fees in Chile's legal system by highlighting some of their features in comparative law. In this context, aspects of tax law, civil procedure law and constitutional law shall be appraised by our lawmakers before making a decision that can change the gratuity of justice in Chile.
This work addresses an old issue that, considering the new active role of the judge all through the proceedings, can have a different interpretation. It has traditionally been understood that, in procedural law, silence does not imply consent, this is, the litigant who does not defend himself does not agree on the allegations of the claim or on the facts therein stated. However, the interpretation of this axiom may change if we pay due attention to the new regulation and, at the same time, correctly read what is today stated on the Code of Civil Procedure.
