Idade núbil: análise dos impactos da lei 13.811/19 sobre o art. 1520 do código civil de 2002

Abstract

The present paper is about the changes caused by the effectiveness of Law 13.811 of March 12, 2019, referring to the changes brought to the Civil Code of 2002, as well as its impact on the decrease of marriages between young people under sixteen years of age. The general objective of this article is to analyze the changes brought about by the aforementioned device, and more specifically, to demonstrate its inexpressive impacts. In the problematic area, the question of what measures are necessary in the legislation to definitively prohibit child marriage in Brazil is brought up. The study is based on the deductive method, since there is an analysis of the changes brought about by the law and previous changes made to the Civil Code article. Finally, it is observed that Law 13,811 did not innovate, because article 1,520 was already tacitly revoked, without any applicability, which was duly verified during the course of the article. We conclude that child marriage is still possible in Brazil, because there has been no significant change in other important articles to prohibit this stir once and for all.
