The dispute over the incorrect joint procuration as a way of representation in private limited companiesThe subject of this article is an attempt to present the most important problems related to a power of attorney in a company that raises many questions for people who apply specific rules on a daily basis. Authors will analyze the individual issues that are the cause of doctrinal disputes as well as case law, but not without reference to practice. The purpose of the study will be to describe the incorrect joint commercial representation which should no longer be called this way. Authors will analize the legal status before and after the amendment of the Civil Code, referring to the changes critically and answering at the same time question whether those already introduced changes solve the problems that have occurred so far or they are still not sufficient. To sum up considerations in the end, authors will mark new problems pending after the amendment.

The article reviews the legal status of subjects of corporate relationships, analyzes doctrinal and law enforcement aspects. The author analyzes the scientists’ standpoints, various models of interaction between the subjects of corporate relationships existing in foreign law and order, case law, arrives at conclusions about the correlation between the categories of the “right of participation”, “right of membership”, “right of management”. It is noted that the membership concept evolves out of participation by performing the function of a generic term. It is suggested to determine the “right of management” of a corporation as just one of the member’s activity areas along with other rights. The author recommends to ensure consistency of the provision of Article 2 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and Articles 65.2, 65.3 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation where the concept of the “right of participation” would act as a basic one and the “right of management” would be its constituent part.

Legal Fact

The article examines the role and functional importance of the lawyer's involvement in the notarial process, discusses the peculiarities of the lawyer's procedural activity in committing certain groups of notarial proceedings. Based on the analysis of judicial and notarial practice, the authors consider the issues of registration of the powers of the lawyer who provides representation in the notarial process. The article concludes that it is necessary to eliminate ambiguous understanding of documentary confirmation of the representative's powers. The specifics of participation in the notarial process and the peculiarities of legal regulation for such participation are determined by the nature of procedural formalities in the sphere of the notarial process. The necessity of determining the lawyer's powers in the notarial process on the basis of a power of attorney issubstantiated. The specifics of the lawyer's activity in the notarial process are proposed to be determined on the basis of two significant aspects: the legal status of the person represented by the lawyer and the nature, complexity, subjectivity of the notarial proceedings. Since the notarial procedure involves the search for the most favorable, acceptable to the parties options for solving their legal situation, the use of various instruments of legal technique, the negative effects of the lawyer's participation in the dynamics of notarial proceedings areanalyzed. Particular attention is paid to the functional component of the lawyer's participation in the notarial proceedings in terms of the stage of the notarial process. Based on the analysis of the case law and the practice of notary decrees on the refusal to perform a notarial act, it is concluded that most of the refusals were made on the grounds that could be eliminated or corrected by the applicant. The paper also stipulates the expediency of the lawyer's involvement in the notarial process for the purpose of increasing the efficiency of such a process. The efficiency of the lawyer's participation in the stage of preparation for the execution of the notary proceedings is determined in order to ensure the legal analysis of the documents as should be provided by the applicant for confirmation of one or another legal fact; legal analysis of the grounds for refusal of a notary in committing notarial proceedings; ways of adjusting the course of the notarial process, offering alternatives to solving the legal situation of theperson. The article highlights the problematic aspects of the personal participation of a person on behalf of and in the name of whom the notarial proceedings are committed. Cases where such participation is mandatory are demonstrated. Based on the research, the authors of the article offer independent conclusions and judgments on the analyzed topics.

The creation of § 1192, para. 1a of the Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch (Germany’s civil code) through the Risk Limitation Act (Risikobegrenzungsgesetz) has gradually improved the opportunities for material debtors to object to land charges. In contrast, the law relating to mortgages has remained unchanged with the result that it has in part lost its model character. This study first presents the similarities and differences between mortgages and land charges with regard to the justification of obtaining credit security and then focuses in detail on the opportunities to object to the use of in rem jurisdiction before and after the Risk Limitation Act came into effect. In doing so, the study explains the developments in case law in this regard and alternatives to the creation of § 1192, para. 1a of the Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch, and in conclusion addresses the question of improving debtor protection.

This paper shows the standpoints of the representatives of the legal practice about women’s legal status in Hungary between 1867 – 1918. The actuality of the examination was the fact that the drafts of the first Civil Code in Hungary (1900 –1928) were under editing at the same time. The articles about  alimony and jointure are described in this paper. The study shows the attitude of the members of the legal profession towards the extension of women’s rights and the significant contradictions in case law.

Abstract In most cases of shoulder injury at work, causation analysis is not clear-cut and requires detailed, thoughtful, and time-consuming causation analysis; traditionally, physicians have approached this in a cursory manner, often presenting their findings as an opinion. An established method of causation analysis using six steps is outlined in the American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine Guidelines and in the AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Disease and Injury Causation, Second Edition, as follows: 1) collect evidence of disease; 2) collect epidemiological data; 3) collect evidence of exposure; 4) collect other relevant factors; 5) evaluate the validity of the evidence; and 6) write a report with evaluation and conclusions. Evaluators also should recognize that thresholds for causation vary by state and are based on specific statutes or case law. Three cases illustrate evidence-based causation analysis using the six steps and illustrate how examiners can form well-founded opinions about whether a given condition is work related, nonoccupational, or some combination of these. An evaluator's causal conclusions should be rational, should be consistent with the facts of the individual case and medical literature, and should cite pertinent references. The opinion should be stated “to a reasonable degree of medical probability,” on a “more-probable-than-not” basis, or using a suitable phrase that meets the legal threshold in the applicable jurisdiction.

The history of local government in South Africa dates back to a time during the formation of the Union of South Africa in 1910. With regard to the status of local government, the Union of South Africa Act placed local government under the jurisdiction of the provinces. The status of local government was not changed by the formation of the Republic of South Africa in 1961 because local government was placed under the further jurisdiction of the provinces. Local government was enshrined in the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa arguably for the first time in 1993. Under the interim Constitution local government was rendered autonomous and empowered to regulate its affairs. Local government was further enshrined in the final Constitution of 1996, which commenced on 4 February 1997. The Constitution refers to local government together with the national and provincial governments as spheres of government which are distinctive, interdependent and interrelated. This article discusses the autonomy of local government under the 1996 Constitution. This it does by analysing case law on the evolution of the status of local government. The discussion on the powers and functions of local government explains the scheme by which government powers are allocated, where the 1996 Constitution distributes powers to the different spheres of government. Finally, a conclusion is drawn on the legal status of local government within the new constitutional dispensation.

Encouraging consumers to switch to lower-rate mortgages is important both for the individual consumer’s finances and for functioning competitive markets, but switching rates are low. Given the complexity of mortgages, one potential regulatory intervention that may increase switching rates is to provide independent advice on how to select good mortgage products and how to navigate the switching process. Working with a government consumer protection agency, we conducted an experiment with mortgage-holders to test whether such advice alters perceptions of switching. The experiment tested how (i) the attributes of the offer, (ii) perceptions about the switching process, (iii) individual feelings of competence and (iv) comprehension of the product affect willingness to switch to better offers, both before and after reading the official advice. The advice made consumers more sensitive to interest rate decreases, especially at longer terms. It also increased consumers’ confidence in their ability to select good offers. Overall, the findings imply that advice from policymakers can change perceptions and increase switching rates. Moreover, the experiment demonstrates how lab studies can contribute to behaviourally-informed policy development.

This chapter reflects on jurisdiction-specific approaches to the domestication of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), considering in particular the domestic legal status of the CRPD and the relevance of that legal status for case law. The chapter explores four dimensions of the CRPD’s legal status: direct effect; indirect interpretative effect (where the CRPD influences the interpretation given to domestic law); use of the CRPD because of commitments to another international treaty; and absence of domestic legal status. With the exception of the first category, all dimensions can potentially present themselves in legal systems which tend towards the monist approach as well as in those which tend towards the dualist approach. The chapter discusses examples of relevant case law and reflects on similarities and differences emerging from a comparison of that case law.

This chapter gives an overview of the law on contract formation and third party beneficiaries in Cambodia. Much of the discussion is tentative since the new Cambodian Civil Code only entered into force from 21 December 2011 and there is little case law and academic writing fleshing out its provisions. The Code owes much to the Japanese Civil Code of 1898 and, like the latter, does not have a requirement of consideration and seldom imposes formal requirements but there are a few statutory exceptions from the principle of freedom from form. For a binding contract, the agreement of the parties is required and the offer must be made with the intention to create a legally binding obligation and becomes effective once it reaches the offeree. The new Code explicitly provides that the parties to the contract may agree to confer a right arising under the contract upon a third party. This right accrues directly from their agreement; it is not required that the third party declare its intention to accept the right.
