Abstract

The research aims to analyze the decision of the Federal Supreme Court in Habeas Corpus 83.996-RJ, which dismissed the criminal action brought against theater director Gerald Thomas Siemers for the crime of obscene acts, and how this case can help in the judgment of Extraordinary Appeal 1.093.553/RS, brought against the decision of the 1st Criminal Appeal Panel of the Special Criminal Courts of the State of Rio Grande do Sul. The Supreme Court, in Habeas Corpus 83.996-RJ, dismissed the criminal action on the grounds that the theatrical director's act of protest was carried out within the limits of freedom of expression. The method used is hypothetical-deductive. It concludes that the Supreme Court's decision, in accepting the prevalence of the right to freedom of expression and dismissing the criminal action, made use of the phenomenon of the constitutionalization of criminal law, which gives greater guarantees to criminal law.
