The Escuela Nacional de la Judicatura (ENJ), the Academia Dominicana de la Lengua (ADL) and the Fundación Guzmán Ariza Pro Academia Dominicana de la Lengua (FGA) will develop two fundamental works to improve the use of the Spanish language in the Dominican judicial bodies: The Style Manual of the Dominican Judicial Branch and the Dominican Legal Dictionary.
These publications arise from an agreement signed by the three entities, represented by Dr. Dariel Suárez, director of the ENJ, and by lawyer and academic Fabio J. Guzmán Ariza, who is president of the firm Guzmán Ariza, representing the ADL and as president of the FGA, within the framework of the inter-institutional collaboration agreement, signed on April 4, 2013 by the Council of the Judiciary branch with the ADL and the FGA.
The purpose of the editorial project, which will be directed by Fabio Guzmán Ariza, is to contribute to improving the use of legal Spanish in the Dominican Judicial branch, offering judges and judicial personnel adequate tools to write clear, precise, concise, coherent legal and correct texts, so that they can be more understandable for the common citizen, who is the final recipient of the judicial service.
Both works will focus on the legal language in use in the Dominican Republic and will be published in digital format and for free distribution among the judicial community.
It is an effort that is in tune with the work that the Real Academia Española and the Asociación de Academias de la Lengua Española have been carrying out in recent years, in collaboration with the General Council of the Judicial branch of Spain, with the publication of the Justice’s Style Book and the Dictionary of Legal Spanish.
