This commentary analyses Article 9.1.14 of the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts (PICC) concerning rights related to the right assigned to the assignee. According to Art 9.1.14, the assignment of a right transfers to the assignee all the assignor's rights to payment or other performance under the contract in respect of the right assigned, as well as all rights securing performance of the right assigned. Art 9.1.14 is not restricted to what civil law systems would refer to as accessory rights. With respect to partial assignments, a distinction must be made between divisible rights and other rights. This commentary also discusses assignment that is contrary to a clause limiting or prohibiting assignment, along with mandatory rules and party autonomy relating to the assignee's rights to payment or other performance.

Performance of work on a basis other than an employment relationship takes various forms. Predominantly, it takes place based on civil law relationships, which are characterised by the principle of freedom of contract, which results in the possibility of freely shaping the content of any such legal relationship. However, recent years are marked by a gradual increase in regulations of employment other than based on contracts of employment, i.e. based on civil law contracts. Introducing a minimum hourly wage, limiting employment in trade on Sundays and public holidays, providing temporary work under civil law contracts or the much earlier widespread granting of employment rights to contractors in the putting-out system and, above all, granting the right to safe and hygienic working conditions to everyone who performs work justifies asking questions about future developments.

Legal privilege and professional secrecy of attorneys relate to the right to a fair trial (Article 6 European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR)) as well as to the right to respect for private and family life (Article 8 ECHR). The reason for protecting the lawyer via fundamental rights is the protection of fundamental rights of the lawyer’s clients. All legal orders apply legal privileges and professional secrecy; however, the contents of such are not identical. Traditionally there is an important difference between common and civil law. The professional secrecy of an attorney in civil law jurisdictions is his right and at the same time his obligation based on his membership of the Bar (that is his legal profession). In common law legal privilege comprises the contents of documents issued by an attorney to the client. Professional secrecy of attorneys in civil law jurisdictions applies solely to independent lawyers; in-house lawyers are usually not allowed to benefit from rules on professional secrecy (exceptions in the Netherlands and Belgium). On the other hand, common law jurisdictions apply legal professional privilege, recognized also to in-house lawyers. Slovenian law follows the traditional civil law concept of professional secrecy and sets a limited privilege to in-house lawyers. The article then discusses Slovenian law of civil procedure and compares the position of professional secrecy in lawsuits before State’s courts and in arbitration.

AbstractNeither in England, nor in Germany, nor in all Canadian provinces, does the law provide specific rules for the redistribution of property for unmarried cohabitants after the breakdown of their relationship. Instead, courts apply the law of trusts, contract and unjust enrichment with an eye to the characteristics of intimate relationships, as, for example, in decisions like the EnglishJones v Kernott([2011] UKSC 53) and the CanadianKerr v Baranow(2011 SCC 10). This article compares English, Canadian, and German case law and evaluates it both from a doctrinal perspective and as a part of a general approach towards cohabitation. The article concludes with an appeal for legislative action that strikes the right balance between party autonomy and protection of the weaker party.

The paper shows how the publication of court decisions influenced the formation of a precedent. The author reviewed scientific works devoted to research the precedent in common and continental law. The research explains that the formation of precedent in England was accompanied by development of the judgment’s reviews and their prevalence among lawyers. Of course, publication of court decisions was not a major factor in setting a precedent, but it played a significant role in this. The paper also describes facts of the publication of court decisions in Italy, Germany, France and the Netherlands, as well as the admissibility of their citations at the court of cassation. The general idea of the paper is that convincing precedent exists and is used although the countries of continental law do not have a «classic» precedent. The paper gives a review of the importance of the state register of court decisions for setting a convincing precedent in Ukraine. The author analyzes the pros and cons of citing court decisions. It’s stated that, unfortunately, the quotations of court decisions is not always correct and sometimes amounts to rewriting the «right» legal position without comparing the circumstances of the case. The article concludes that the practice of applying a convincing precedent in Ukraine is only emerging and needs further improvement.          It has been found out that the publication of judgments of supreme courts is one of the factors that helped to establish precedent in common law countries. The publication of court rulings also created the conditions for a convincing precedent in civil law countries (especially in private law). At the same time, the formation of a “convincing precedent» in countries where court decisions are published in publicly available electronic court registers is much faster than in common law countries. Of course, the structure and the significance of the precedent in the common law and civil law countries are different, but one cannot dismiss that publication of court decisions as one of the factors for establishing the precedent.

The protection of personal human rights is especially important after the death of the victim. First of all, it is necessary to determine what is meant by the personal rights of a person, what personal rights can be protected after the death of the victim, in order to determine what is meant by the protection of the personal rights of the deceased. Then it is necessary to find out what the characteristics of a person are, by whom, how and in what form these rights are protected, and what harm can be caused by the violation of personal rights. It is true that the violation of personal rights is not allowed by law, but, nevertheless, there are many facts around us when the personal rights of the deceased and the living are violated. It is also desirable to protect personal rights acquired at birth from being violated by others both during the life and after the death of the victim. It is true that a person with personal rights protects his life and can claim compensation for property and / or non-property damage, but after the death of the victim, the law prohibits relatives or friends of the deceased from claiming compensation. for moral damage in violation of these rights. However, if a person was rehabilitated after his / her death, but the unlawful condemnation of the victim or other illegal legal actions damaged both the name and reputation of the heir, it is recommended to give the victim’s heir the right to claim compensation for the damage directly caused to him.
