Abstract

Certain «defensiones» are expressly contemplated in the royal Castilian law. Such exceptions or defensiones may be intended to cause delay, prolonging the procedure in time, but without causing extinction or weakening of the main action, that would extinguish the right wielded by actor and would therefore end the cause. The purpose of this study is to analyze the opinion of the Spanish legal literature on the subject.
