Abstract

The insertion of new means to negotiated criminal justice, mainly, the Non-Prosecution Agreement, brings questions about its applicability to the felonies committed by companies. Answer to this issue is important because the legislator managed this matter having as a paradigm only the crimes committed by natural person. In this article, we analyze the possibility to criminalizes legal entities, as well as the hypotheses of appropriateness of the Non-Prosecution Agreement. Afterwards, we seek to systematically align these two points. Our previous hypotheses were the possibility or impossibility of applying the Non-Prosecution Agreement to the companies. At this point, we did not find any legal or dogmatic basis capable of justifying the absence of isonomic treatment between individuals and legal entities. Thus, through hermeneutic techniques, it is our understanding that companies have the right to celebrate the Non-Prosecution Agreement.
