Summary: This research was developed with the primary objective of demonstrating the close relationship between the implementation of integrity systems in judicial bodies and procedural efficiency. Initially, it addresses fundamental concepts necessary for understanding the topic (morality, ethics, law, integrity, and corruption), justifies the choice of the term “integrity system,” and defines what is meant by efficiency. Subsequently, it examines the functions performed by the Judiciary and identifies which should be considered when implementing an integrity system, with special attention to the procedural impacts of such implementation. It then brings to light the formal and material aspects of National Justice Council Resolution No. 410/2021, which establishes general rules and guidelines for the institution of integrity systems within the Judiciary. Finally, it links integrity systems to the promotion of greater procedural efficiency, particularly by strengthening procedural guarantees such as impartiality, publicity, adversarial proceedings, and the right to a full defense. It also highlights the role of lawyers and parties in maintaining and improving the system.
