A Progressividade na execução da pena do sentenciado estrangeiro passível de expulsão

Abstract

This article intends to analyze the possible application of criminal sentence progressivity for convicted foreigners susceptible to expulsion. Although there isn’t an express norm in Brazilian law forbidding it, those foreigners have difficulty obtaining criminal execution benefits that directly imply in less strict ways of serving their sentence, in such a way that the existence of an expulsion procedure is occasionally indicated as an obstacle for the progressivity. For a better understanding of the problem, criminal sentence serving in national territory and expulsion measure characteristics were examined, as well as other related distinct themes.
