Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on describing the institution of amparo as an instrument for protecting the fundamental rights and freedoms, by emphasizing the role of the actors of amparo proceedings: the claimant and the defendant. The main principle of this proceeding is that of bilateralism, mainly the existence of opposing parties in a determined juridical issue. The claimant (the injured party) can be a person (both natural and artificial), a public entity or an injured third party. The defendant (the injuring part) can be a public authority, a private person or an entity.
