Abstract

Royal Decree Law 9/2017 regulates the compensation of damages caused by practices restricting competition. To facilitate proof in those procedures, it introduces and regulates the access to evidence sources in damage proceedings, modifying the Code of Civil Procedure (LEC 1/2000). This mechanism coexists with other pre-existing procedural mechanisms in civil proceedings to access sources of evidence: the exhibition of documents and preliminary investigations. This study analyzes the mechanism of access to sources of evidence in antitrust tort law and the advisability of extending the application to other areas of civil proceedings, even when there are confidentiality issues deserving of protection.

Este mecanismo coexiste con otros mecanismos procesales prexistentes en el proceso civil para acceder a fuentes de pruebas: la exhibición de documentos y las diligencias preliminares. El presente trabajo analizará el acceso a fuentes de prueba en el derecho de daños y la conveniencia de extender la aplicación a otros ámbitos del proceso civil, incluso cuando existan cuestiones de confidencialidad merecedoras de protección.
