This research led to arguing that the mixed procedural structure of Spanish origin was kept during the studied timeframe, besides, it showed a growing autonomy and a formal adjustment of the procedures despite the informal and socially diffuse characteristics that remained in place. The study also shows that the practice of the statement of inquiry started in the late colonial period through the judicial activity of the Royal Audience in first instance.
