Abstract

This study is a reflection concerning the interaction in conciliation hearings held in a Civil Forum in the State of Rio Grande do Norte. We discuss some dimensions of those hearings, guided by what defines the legislation (CPC and the Law of Special Courts), observing how the normative regulations influence the linguistic-discursive aspects. Thus, we privilege the evidences of the overall structural organization of the interaction and the lexical choices * Professora doutora da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte – UFRN, Natal, RN, Brasil. ** Professor doutor da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte – UFRN, Natal, RN, Brasil.

We followed the Conversation Analysis orientation for the construction of the investigation corpus, consisting of two conciliation hearings, recorded on video and transcribed according to the system adopted by the studies of oral texts. The analysis of the audience data allowed us to recognize some consistency in the interaction, marked by what is institutionally defined, given the compliance with laws and guidelines that are embodied in the linguisticdiscursive level, based on the lexicon identified in this research data.
