This book assesses stability guarantees through the lens of the legitimate expectations principle to offer a new perspective on the stability concept in international energy investments. The analysis of the interaction between the concepts of stability and legitimate expectations reveals that there are now more opportunities for energy investors to argue their cases before arbitral tribunals. The book offers detailed analyses of the latest energy investment arbitral awards from Spain, Italy and the Czech Republic, and reflects on the state of the art of the legitimate expectations debate and its relationship with the stability concept. The author argues that, in order to achieve stability, the legitimate expectations principle should be employed as the main investment protection tool when a dispute arises on account of unilateral host state alterations. This timely work will be useful to both scholars and practitioners who are interested in international energy law, investment treaty arbitration, and international investment law.

Warning! This book is written from an unusually light perspective on a dark and otherwise closeted subject - personal discontentment within the legal profession. Author Virginia Warren is asking us lawyers to take a step back and look at ourselves with a sense of humor and lightness, from a place that others might fear to tread. That said, with serious science and other entertaining stories, she injects the spark of purpose back into those of you that feel like your heartbeat within the legal profession is about to flatline. Putting the fun back into your fundamentals and using chocolate as her ally, Virginia promises you that what she has to teach cannot be unlearned. You will explore parts of you that have shied away from the light of existence. In a meet and greet with your true self, not only will your clients thank you, you too, will thank you. Every lawyer should read this book because it contains that "one thing" that a lawyer needs to find to be "loved". Happy reading and lawyer "heal thyself and be loved". - Tom Gyorffy QC, Melbourne, Australia Virginia's humor is infectious and life-giving. She has opened the door to a prickly topic with finesse and light-hearted comic relief which we all need as lawyers. Her vulnerability revealed in these pages is courageous. - Dr Victoria Lambropoulos, Barrister, Senior Lecturer Australian National University Humor mixed with wisdom ... or is it wisdom mixed with humor? Either way, this book provides much needed smiles and advice. - J. Kim Wright, American Bar Association author, leader in the integrative law movement. www.jkimwright.com

HOW TO APPLY FOR AN 'ORDER FOR SALE' IF YOUR EX WON'T SELL OR BUY YOU OUT.... Do you jointly own a UK property with an ex-partner, family member or friend?Have you been left with no option but to apply to the court for an Order For Sale but don't know where to start?>If the answer is yes then this book is for you. A dispute may arise when the relationship between joint owners breaks down and one joint owner wants to sell the property, or be bought out, but the other joint owner does not agree. If agreement cannot be reached then a stalemate arises which could go on for months or even years. Surveys show that the main reason why the issue does not get to court is due to unaffordable legal costs. While the courts have a broad jurisdiction to achieve fairness on divorce, when the parties are not married the strict law of property and trusts apply - Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act 1996 (TOLATA). This book will be focusing on joint owners who are cohabitees, friends or family members and will give you an insight into how to prepare your court application. Using real case studies, of past clients, you can read all about their legal journey and the successful outcomes achieved by either being bought out or receiving a court order for sale. It is recommended that you seek legal advice, on an ad-hoc basis, if your case is complex in nature. Here is a preview of what you'll learn... * The Reasons Why An Order For Sale Is Needed * Positive Outcomes* The Trusts of Land and Appointment Act 1996 (Tolata)* The Litigation Process * Making A Court Application* Preparing For Court Hearings And A Potential Trial* Representing Yourself In Court* Case Studies>** PLEASE NOTE THAT THE REFERENCED BUSINESS IS NO LONGER IN OPERATION **

Numa perspectiva democrática, em que extensão e alcance da jurisdição são ampliados, há necessidade de se considerar diversas manifestações de juridicidades emergentes, como as advindas de práticas que ocorrem na, para e pela comunidade. Entende-se comunidade como agrupamento humano com vínculos de pertencimento e significado. Diferente de um retorno à "comunidade imaginada," que parte de ideia fixa do coletivo perdido, a justiça comunitária trata a comunidade enquanto opção política e ética emancipatória, definida no presente, com base em diálogos provisórios e contínuos que consideram a diversidade. Ela propõe tratamento adequado aos conflitos partindo da consideração de diversas maneiras de se compreender juridicamente a realidade. Sua proposta consiste em prevenir violências e produzir transformação, solução e gestão de conflitos no espaço interno da comunidade, por meio da ação de seus próprios agentes, para o estabelecimento de um estado de paz pautado em pertencimento, participação e conexão de seus membros. É, portanto, forma de democratização da produção jurídica; neste caso, feita de forma direta pelos meios, linguagem e costumes da comunidade, sendo mais acessível e compreensível aos seus membros, além de mais sensível e familiarizada às particularidades do grupo do que abstrações do "homem médio" do direito estatal monista. A pesquisa focou a verificação das formas e impactos da materialização da justiça comunitária no Brasil na experiência da Região do Nacional, em Contagem, Minas Gerais, sob o Programa Conjunto da ONU "Segurança com Cidadania: prevenindo a violência e fortalecendo a cidadania com foco em crianças, adolescentes e jovens em condições vulneráveis em comunidades brasileiras," entre os anos de 2010 e 2013. O problema central disse respeito à efetividade do Segurança com Cidadania, segundo a perspectiva de seus usuários e executores. Considerando o resultado de mais de um ano sem homicídio de jovens no Nacional, tinha por hipótese que o Programa havia sido efetivo. Houve ainda a preocupação de identificar os impactos e transformações que continuavam em curso no território mesmo após a finalização das atividades do Programa. Para tanto, foi realizada pesquisa documental e bibliográfica, mas foi a pesquisa de campo a grande ênfase metodológica do trabalho. A proposta inicial restringia-se à realização de entrevistas semi-estruturadas do tipo narrativo; com o contato com a comunidade, o estudo de caso converteu-se em pesquisa-ação. O grande destaque do Segurança com Cidadania foi a utilização da metodologia do PNUD, considerando os recursos e potencialidades locais e envolvendo os agentes comunitários em todo o processo decisório e executório de projetos, programas, serviços e políticas públicas. Pautada em policentrismo decisório, práticas restaurativas, participação e influência da comunidade, a utilização da metodologia do PNUD no Nacional demonstrou a reflexividade entre métodos de tratamento de conflitos e cultura. Com marco teórico em Clifford Geertz, a pesquisa foi estruturada a partir da compreensão de que todo Direito é saber local, não só no que tange ao seu lugar, época e categorias; mas também em virtude das construções mentais de que parte sobre o que é possível - permitido, facultado ou proibido. Como saber local, pauta-se em racionalidades e em sensibilidades jurídicas.

Many important opinions have been 5-to-4 split decisions. If nine of the best legal experts in the country cannot agree on what a statute or regulation means, how are average Americans to understand the law?!Chief Justice Roberts stated, "my job is to call balls and strikes." No, it's not! Not in a Free Republic! Justice Bradley understood, "It is the duty of courts to be watchful for the constitutional rights of the citizens, and against any stealthy encroachments [by Congress and Government.]" Three simple rule changes just might begin the process of restoring freedom.

Mediation – ret og rammer, 3. udgaveMediation er – i modsætning til retssagsbehandling – en frivillig proces, hvor en neutral tredjeperson, en mediator, hjælper personer eller virksomheder i konflikt til selv at nå frem til tilfredsstillende løsninger gennem en særlig procesledelse. Mediation har i de sidste 20 år haft en positiv udvikling som konfliktløsningsmodel i Danmark.Mediation er i dag et reelt alternativ til den mere traditionelle behandling af konflikter. Derfor bør særligt mediator, men også mediationens andre aktører, kende til mediationens retlige og etiske grænser. Der er ikke lovgivet om mediation, men der er en vifte af lovregler og andre regelsæt, der er relevante ved mediation.Bogen beskriver de mange forskellige regler, der kan have berøring med mediation, heraf både vedrørende mediationens tilrettelæggelse og gennemførelse, men også de omkringliggende begrænsninger i form af krav til god mediationsskik, uafhængighed, fortrolighed og efterfølgende fuldbyrdelse af den aftale, som ofte er resultatet af mediationen.Nyt i 3. udgaveDenne udgave af bogen udkommer 10 år efter anden udgaven. Der er derfor foretaget en ajourføring af stoffet, indarbejdet ny relevant praksis og tilføjet henvisning til ny litteratur. Bogen indeholder endvidere et kapital med status på mediation anno 2022.MålgruppeBogen henvender sig til jurister og andre, der beskæftiger sig med mediation, men den kan læses af alle med interesse for mediation. Det anvendte sprog gør bogen læsevenlig ­– også de steder hvor juridiske emner behandles.Om forfatterneLars Økjær Jørgensen og Martin Lavesen er begge advokater og mediatorer.

Dieses Buch analysiert eine 2017 angestoßene Tendenz der höchstrichterlichen Rechtsprechung, wonach die aus dem Arzthaftungsrecht stammende Beweisregel der Beweislastumkehr beim groben Behandlungsfehler auf andere Berufsgruppen ausgeweitet wird. In einem ersten Hauptteil werden umfangreich die Grundlagen zur Regelung des § 630h Abs. 5 S. 1 BGB dargestellt; deren rechtsgeschichtliche Entwicklung, deren Stärken und Schwächen, sowie Alternativlösungen für das Beweisproblem bei der Kausalität im Arzthaftungsrecht. Im darauffolgenden Hauptteil wird sodann die Entwicklung zur Anwendung der Vorschrift außerhalb des Arzthaftungsrechts beleuchtet, beginnend mit einer umfassenden Auswertung von Entscheidungen seit dem Jahr 1962, die eine entsprechende Anwendung der Beweislastregel in Erwägung gezogen haben. Im Anschluss wird diese Entwicklung nach einer Festlegung der methodischen Bewertungsgrundlagen nach Fallgruppen differenziert beurteilt. So wird im Ergebnis eine subsumtionsfähige Formel für künftige Fälle erarbeitet, die über die Zulässigkeit einer Analogie zu § 630h Abs. 5 S. 1 BGB entscheidet. Schlussendlich wird ein rechtspolitischer Vorschlag für eine Alternativregelung unterbreitet, die nicht an die viel kritisierte Beweislastumkehr anknüpft. Der Leser erhält so einen umfassenden Überblick zu der sich aktuell vollziehenden Rechtsfortbildung. Das Ergebnis ist ein Kompromiss aus den unübersehbaren Beweisnöten in den gegenständlichen Fällen auf der einen Seite, sowie dem Anliegen auf der anderen Seite, den Anwendungsbereich der Regelung zu begrenzen, um nicht das gesamte Haftungsrecht damit zu infiltrieren.

This book explores the use of foreign judges on courts of constitutional jurisdiction in 9 Pacific states: Fiji, Kiribati, Nauru, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu and Vanuatu. We often assume that the judges sitting on domestic courts will be citizens. However across the island states of the Pacific, over three-quarters of all judges are foreign judges who regularly hear cases of constitutional, legal and social importance. This has implications for constitutional adjudication, judicial independence and the representative qualities of judges and judiciaries. Drawing together detailed empirical research, legal analysis and constitutional theory, it traces how foreign judges bring different dimensions of knowledge to bear on adjudication, face distinctive burdens on their independence, and hold only an attenuated connection to the state and its people. It shows how foreign judges have come to be understood as representatives of a transnational profession, with its own transferrable judicial skills and values. Foreign Judges in the Pacific sheds light on the widespread but often unarticulated assumptions about the significance of nationality to the functions and qualities of constitutional judges. It shows how the nationality of judges matters, not only for the legitimacy and effectiveness of the Pacific courts that use foreign judges, but for legal and theoretical scholarship on courts and judging.

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2018 im Fachbereich Jura - IT-Recht, Note: 1,0, Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences, ehem. Fachhochschule Frankfurt am Main, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die neuen Technologien, welche die digitale Transformation mit steigender Geschwindigkeit voranschreiten lassen, gewinnen an Reife. In den Innovationszentren der Welt stellen sie die Werkzeuge der Gründer dar, die sie zusammenfügen, um neue Geschäftsmodelle zu schaffen, mit disruptiven Folgen für die bestehenden. Eine dieser Technologien heißt Blockchain (zu dt. Blockkette).Die Blockchain hat das Potenzial, die Verwaltung und Speicherung von Daten zu dezentralisieren. Diese Aufgabe wird derzeit häufig einem neutralen, vertrauenswürdigen Intermediär anvertraut, welcher entsprechend dafür entlohnt wird. In Zukunft kann sie von einem System mit Hilfe der Blockchain übernommen werden, was dazu führt das der Intermediär mitunter obsolet wird. Dieses Potenzial ist im Informationszeitalter von gewaltiger Bedeutung. Das IT-Marktforschungsunternehmen Gartner ist der Ansicht, dass langfristig die Blockchain-Technologie zu einer Umgestaltung ganzer Branchen führen wird.Ähnlich wie das Internet, stellt die Blockchain eine Grundlage ¿ Plattform ¿ für Anwendungsfälle verschiedenster Art dar. Neben der Pflege eines Distributed Ledger (Verteiltes Kontenbuch) für jegliche Arten von Vermögenswerte, ermöglicht sie auch die Ausführung von Smart Contracts (Intelligente Verträge). Damit offeriert die Blockchain einen völlig neuen Grad von Automatisierung in den Alltag der Menschen zu implementieren.Smart Contracts sind kleine Computer-Programme, deren zwingende Ausführung an vorher definierte Bedingungen gebunden ist. Dies erlaubt es Verträge vollständig digital abzuschließen und deren Ausführung sicherzustellen. Damit können Smart Contracts nicht zuletzt das Rahmenwerk für die Verschmelzung der virtuellen und physischen Welt darstellen, wenn Sie die Wege bestimmen, wie im Internet of Things autonom agierende Geräte Geschäfte miteinander abwickeln. Aus diesen neuen, digitalen Möglichkeiten ergeben sich offensichtlicher Weise völlig neue vielfältige juristische Fragestellungen.Welche rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen müssen von Smart Contracts erfüllt werden und an welchen Stellen müssen möglicherweise Änderungen oder Ergänzungen im Rechtssystem vorgenommen werden, damit Smart Contracts rechtskonform sind? Der Fokus dieser Arbeit liegt auf der Einordnung der Smart Contracts ins deutsche Rechtssystem und wie diese grundsätzlich zu den Prinzipien des deutschen Rechtssystems stehen.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2017 im Fachbereich BWL - Recht, Note: 1,3, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Das der Arbeit zugrundeliegende Problem besteht in der Fragestellung, wie zukünftig die Haftung im Falle eines Unfalles im Kontext des autonomen Fahrens geregelt wird. So sind heutzutage in erster Linie der Halter bzw. der Fahrer eines unfallverursachenden Fahrzeuges, seltener die Produzenten, für einen Unfall haftbar zu machen. Sollten die Fahrzeuge in Zukunft jedoch ohne Mitwirkung eines Fahrers auskommen, das heißt sollte der Fahrer zu keinem Zeitpunkt mehr die Möglichkeit zur Kontrolle des Kraftfahrzeuges besitzen, so muss auch die Gesetzgebung bezüglich aller mit einem Unfall verbundenen Haftungsfragen überarbeitet werden. Im Rahmen dieser Ausarbeitung werden ethische Aspekte des autonomen Fahrens angesprochen, aber nicht tiefergehend erläutert. Diese ethischen Aspekte sind neben den gesetzlichen Regelungen und den technischen Fragestellungen sicherlich prägend für die Entwicklung des autonomen Fahrens, doch sind sie gleichermaßen kontrovers zu diskutieren und daher nicht Bestandteil der Untersuchung. Eine weitere Abgrenzung ist hinsichtlich der zu untersuchenden Gesetze vorzunehmen. Die der Arbeit zugrundeliegenden Gesetzestexte sind ausschließlich im deutschen Recht zu finden. Lediglich Auszüge aus dem ¿Wiener Übereinkommen über den Straßenverkehr¿ werden bei der Prüfung des vorhandenen Regelwerkes herangezogen.

Kaspar Krolop untersucht Covenants bei unbesicherten Darlehen, Genussrechten und weiteren Formen hybriden Kapitals. Diese unter dem Begriff "Risikokapital auf schuldrechtlicher Grundlage" zusammengefassten Vertragsgestaltungen sind ein Anwendungsbeispiel für transnationales Private Ordering durch komplexe Verträge mit Organisationselementen. Ein Fokus der Arbeit liegt auf der rechtlichen Einordnung dieses Phänomens mit Folgerungen für die Abgrenzung von Vertrag und Verband unter Berücksichtigung der Implikationen für die Corporate Governance der zu finanzierenden Gesellschaft. Dabei spannt er den Bogen von vertragsrechtlichen Grundlagen und Erkenntnissen der Institutionenökonomik über gesellschafts-, kollisions- und europarechtliche Fragen bei der Verzahnung von deutschem Verbandsrecht mit ausländischem Recht unterliegenden Verträgen bis hin zu den konkreten Haftungsfragen im Vertrags-, Gesellschafts- und Insolvenzrecht. Der Autor entwickelt dabei ein international und interdisziplinär anschlussfähiges Einordnungsraster für schuldrechtliche Verträge mit Organisationselementen im Grenzbereich zwischen Austauschvertrag und Verband. Darüber hinaus bietet die Arbeit der Kautelarpraxis Orientierung im Hinblick auf die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der Gestaltungsfreiheit bei Finanzierungsinstrumenten auf schuldrechtlicher Grundlage sowie mit diesen einhergehenden Haftungsrisiken.

The court system in India is overburdened with a high number of pending cases. This acts as a barrier to justice, reducing the confidence of the public in our court system and causing a loss of time and money and additional stress for the litigants.In this book, we discuss some of the reasons for the delays in court cases. We touch upon the scale of the problem and its underlying causes. We use data from various sources and reports, which are cited where necessary. We especially focus on pending property cases, since they are the largest group of pending cases and also take the longest to resolve.
