The promulgation of the Law 13,964/2019 introduced the role of the preliminary judge in the Brazilian criminal prosecution. After a period of suspended effectiveness, the Supreme Court declared the constitutionality of the institute; however, with reservations. The approved legal reform was already insufficient and the limitations operated by the Supreme Court further reduced the potential of the new institute. This text analyzes the mistakes in the decision and defends the continuous improvement of the preliminary judge, with the expansion of their role also in what should be the intermediate phase of criminal prosecution, as a measure to reduce potential damage to impartiality and promote better rationality in the use of public time and resources.
