La administración de justicia en el período colonial implicaba la participación de un conjunto variado de agentes -jueces, escribanos, secretarios, procuradores, abogados, etc.- que garantizaban el ejercicio de la jurisdicción. Este trabajo se propone reconocer la relevancia de los apoderados -como representantes de terceros- en la administración de justicia a partir de un voluminoso corpus de escrituras públicas labradas en la ciudad de Córdoba en el último cuarto del siglo XVI. Partiendo del relevamiento de los poderes otorgados entre 1574 y 1600 se focaliza el análisis en aquéllos cuyo otorgamiento involucra específicamente la potestad para gestionar asuntos judiciales, procurando dar cuenta de algunas de las características y variantes de la representación, como la amplitud geográfica de la actuación de los apoderados y la participación de los diferentes sectores sociales en esta modalidad de intermediación.

Este trabalho visa reconhecer a relevância dos procuradores -como representantes de terceiros- na administração da justiça a partir de um volumoso corpus de escritos públicos elaborados na cidade de Córdoba no último quarto do século XVI. Partindo do levantamento dos procurações conferidos entre 1574 e 1600, a análise centra-se naqueles cuja atribuição envolve especificamente o poder de gestão de assuntos judiciais, tentando dar conta de algumas das características e variantes de representação, como a amplitude geográfica das ações dos advogados e a participação de diferentes setores sociais nesse tipo de intermediação.
