From the information obtained, it is possible to characterize domestic and family violence for a better contextualization of the phenomenon and, subsequently, the analysis of the procedural rites used by the institution in the application of urgent protective measures to face domestic and family violence against them. women, correlated the material collected with the categories that guide the research. From the results obtained in this research, it appears that the slowness and omission of the judiciary returns domestic violence and family to the private sphere of relations and, once again, abstains the state from its confrontation.
