This article examines the agreements as to succession from a historical perspective and in the context of the particular effects given by the  Regulation (EU) no. 650/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 July 2012 on jurisdiction, applicable law, recognition and enforcement of judgments and acceptance and enforcement of authentic instruments in matters of succession and on the creation of a European Certificate of Succession. The article aims to establish the content and the admissibility of these agreements in  successions having cross-border implications that are governed by Romanian applicable law, and to determine which agreements allowed by Romanian civil law could fall under the European definition.

A novelty element which concerns even Romanian citizens is the enforcement of Regulation (EU) no 650/2012. Although the area of enforcement of the regulation should include all aspect of civil law regarding a deceased person’s patrimony, certain aspects were deliberately left out from the enforcement area of this regulation, as the questions governed by the law of companies or relating to matrimonial property regimes. To illustrate the effects of the death of an associate in a company, we will provide a short comparative presentation of the continuance of the collective society with the heirs of the deceased partner as regulated by Law no 31/1990 regarding Romanian companies as opposed to the French Civil Code. Also, our brief analysis of the Proposal for a Council regulation on jurisdiction, applicable law and the recognition and enforcement of decisions in matters of matrimonial property regimes, may shed some light on what is to come in matrimonial property regimes.

This chapter discusses the recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards. Domestic awards are recognized and enforced under the provisions of the Arbitration Act, which are virtually the same as the provisions in the New York Convention. As per the Model Law, if an arbitration is seated in Korea it is considered a domestic arbitration. In addition, the 2016 Arbitration Act now provides that recognition or enforcement of an arbitral award can occur in far more simplified fashion, through an enforcement decision by a court, as is the case in such civil law countries as Germany and Japan. Furthermore, under the amended Article 37.1, a domestic and foreign arbitral award will be recognized as long as grounds to set it aside do not exist.

Very little literature concerns conflicts between civil law and common law requirements for judgment recognition and enforcement (JRE) and grounds for refusing JRE. This paper intends to fill this gap by using the finality dispute between Mainland China and Hong Kong as an example. It compares relevant Chinese law, Hong Kong law, U.S. law, and EU law. It also analyzes Mainland judicial statistics from 1999 to 2010. It argues that Hong Kong courts inappropriately apply the law of the requested court to determine the finality of a Mainland judgment in the judgment recognition and enforcement proceedings. It proposes three solutions to solve the finality dispute between Mainland China and Hong Kong: amend Hong Kong law, amend Mainland law, or adopt interregional law approaches.

This article, in earlier versions presented as a paper to the Edinburgh Roman Law Group on 10 December 1993 and to the joint meeting of the London Roman Law Group and London Legal History Seminar on 7 February 1997, addresses the puzzle of the end of law teaching in the Scottish universities at the start of the seventeenth century at the very time when there was strong pressure for the advocates of the Scots bar to have an academic education in Civil Law. It demonstrates that the answer is to be found in the life of William Welwood, the last Professor of Law in St Andrews, while making some general points about bloodfeud in Scotland, the legal culture of the sixteenth century, and the implications of this for Scottish legal history. It is in two parts, the second of which will appear in the next issue of the Edinburgh Law Review.
