Summary/Abstract: This study aims to address a comparative analysis of the error as a vitiating factor in the continental law system and the system based on judicial precedent - the common law, from the perspective of the historical evolution of this concept. Error, in the continental system of law is a vitiating factor which consists of the misrepresentation of facts at the conclusion of the legal civil act. At the frontier of error – as a vitiating factor and fraud in the common-law system, is interposed the misrepresentation doctrine, a doctrine with direct application in tort but which has also incidence in what concerns the legal documents. Misrepresentation in this system of law defines a false statement, precisely addressed to a person by another, to determine this other person to enter a contract. This approach emphasizes the demarcations and interferences in terms of concept, structure, and the classification of error from the point of view of the two legal systems.
