Given the risk posed by the material impossibility of the process timely resolving any claim, the legislator must employ a set of measures called precautionary measures. Every legal process takes a considerable amount of time to reach a decision, and events are likely to occur during its substantiation that make it impossible to satisfy the judgment. Therefore, the objective of precautionary measures is to ensure the outcome of the judgment that must be issued in a given case, so that justice is not deceived, making its enforcement impossible. Therefore, sequestration is the most effective precautionary measure a plaintiff can have when, in the absence of an enforceable title, his claim will obtain recognition in the ordinary civil courts.
