This dissertation aims to discuss how the feasibility of investigative tasks can be used as a temporality criterion for criminal investigations. The starting point is the enumeration of principles that underlie the control of the duration of the investigative phase: human dignity, access to justice, due process of law, proportionality, reasonableness, efficiency, legal certainty and contradictory. The paper draws a diagnosis on the duration of criminal investigations in Brazil and concludes that peculiarities of our system, such as outdated legislation, structural deficiencies of the prosecution bodies and excessive criminal investigations become obstacles to the adoption of peremptory investigative deadlines. Furthermore, the analysis of comparative law demonstrates that the “no term” system is adopted by international human rights courts and various national legal systems. Other countries that provide a fixed deadline for investigations adopt measures that mitigate the rigor of the system, in order to avoid inefficiency of investigation and impunity. In this context, the paper proposes the adoption of a final control of criminal investigations based on the feasibility of the investigative tasks. For this purpose, the first aspect to be established is the correct definition of roles between the police authority, the Public Ministry and the judge, with respect to the accusatory system. Then, the cognition of the criminal investigation must be summarized, limited by its purpose of obtaining the necessary elements for the exercise of the opinio delicti by the Public Ministry. Finally, the study proposes the adoption of three filters to assess the feasibility of continuing the investigative procedure: efficacy, effectiveness and efficiency. Such filters must be understood in their double aspect: the absence of one of them requires the closure of investigations, while their joint presence gives rise to the investigator's duty to continue the investigation of the crime, under penalty of violating the principle of prohibition of deficient protection.
