Summary: The procedural figure of the amicus curiae, well developed in the common law system, allows third parties, outside a debate in the constitutional scope, to apply in order to become a member in the procedure, aiming to contribute with new elements that may be useful to the resolution of the case.

This article is intended to analyze the admission of an amicus curiae in the Spanish constitutional procedure.
