Abstract: In Ecuador, the direct procedure is a legal regulation that predominates in criminal legislation, which allows processes to be developed more efficiently and quickly. However, its application presents difficulties and certain constitutional rights are violated. The foregoing becomes a problematic situation that requires analysis, for this reason it is proposed to apply the benchmarking technique in the legislative field in order to reveal opportunities for improvement and thus improve the Direct Procedure in the Comprehensive Organic Criminal Code (COIP), which become the objective of this article. The tendency to carry out research at the level of comparative law allows us to observe various formations of law institutions in parallel. Therefore, it is enriching for legal science in the criminal field. In addition, a study of related procedures of Chilean and Argentine legislation is carried out.
