Among the types of violence typified in article 7º, we find, in section IV, the description of patrimonial violence understood as “any conduct that constitutes retention, subtraction, partial or total destruction of its objects, work instruments, personal documents, property, values and rights or economic resources, including those destined to satisfy their needs”. The main purpose of this type of violence is to leave the woman without any material possibility of restarting her life, or of intimidating her by saying that without him she has nowhere to go. In Brazil, manifestations of patrimonial violence according to the Maria da Penha Law are very rare, since some judges still apply the absolutist excuses provided for in Articles 181 and 182 of the Brazilian Penal Code, which states that “it is a penalty to commit any of the crimes provided in this title in detriment: I- of the couple, in the constancy of the conjugal society; II- of the ascendant or descendant,be it the legitimate, illegitimate, civil or natural kinship “. So, if the aggressor is the husband, father, son or brother, he may not be punished. Although in Brazilian courts the condemnation of patrimonial violence is very rare, it is essential to recognize it as a type of violence that, like all others, contributes to the cycle of gender inequality and the perpetuation of the abuse of rights in the relations of family. En Brasil, la ley 11340, de 7 de agosto de 2006, conocida como Lei Maria da Penha, criminalizó la violencia en el ámbito doméstico. Entre los tipos de violencia tipificados en el artículo 7º se encuentra, en el inciso 4, la violencia patrimonial, entendida como “cualquier conducta que configure retención, sustracción, destrucción parcial o total de sus objetos, instrumentos de trabajo, documentos personales, bienes, valores y derechos o recursos económicos, incluyendo los destinados a satisfacer sus necesidades”. En Brasil, son muy raras las manifestaciones de violencia patrimonial según la Ley Maria daPenha, pues algunos jueces todavía aplican las excusas absolutorias previstas en los artículos 181 y 182 del Código Penal brasileño que dice que “está exento de pena quien cometiere cualquiera de los crímenes previstos en este título en perjuicio: I- de la pareja, en constancia de la sociedad conyugal; II- del ascendiente o descendiente, sea el parentesco legítimo, ilegítimo, civil o natural”. Por lo tanto, si el agresor es el marido, padre, hijo o hermano, puede no ser punido. Aunque en los juzgados brasileños sean muy raras las condenas por violencia patrimonial, es imprescindible reconocerla como un tipo de violencia que, como todas las otras, contribuye con el ciclo de desigualdad de género y la perpetuación del abuso de derecho en las relaciones de familia.
