Brazilian Anti-Corruption Law (Law no. 12,846/13), intended to sanction juristic persons for

reviewed the birth context of the aforementioned federal law, we studied the
constitutionalization of law phenomenon and its contribution to the structuring of a Punitive
Administrative legal regime. Therefore, essentials concepts and premises to this investigation
were established in l ight of the Punitive Administrative Law. Then, a necessary introduction
was made to the disregard of legal person technique in Brazilian legislation. Finally, we
suggested criteria for the interpretation and application of article 14, of the Law 12,846/13.
Keywords: federal law n. 12.846/13; anti-corruption; constitutionalization of Law; sanctioning
Administrative Law; disregard of legal entity doctrine.
