 Resumen: De entre las aportaciones del Reglamento 650/2012, relativo a las sucesiones transfron­terizas, sobresale la introducción de la elección de la ley sucesoria por parte del causante. Para justificar la institución y su inclusión en el instrumento europeo es fácil imaginar una suerte de correlación natural entre la libertar de testar existente en Derecho civil y la posibilidad de designar la ley aplicable propia de las herencias internacionales. Con todo, la doctrina prefiere invocar la seguridad y previsibilidad que la professio iuris proporciona en la planificación de la sucesión. No es ésta, sin embargo, la línea que está siguiendo la jurisprudencia registral española, pues, en sus resoluciones, se ha basado más en la libertad de testar que en la seguridad jurídica.Palabras clave: sucesión mortis causa, libertad de testar, sucesiones internacionales, elección de la ley sucesoria, elección tácita, seguridad jurídica.Abstract: Among the features of Regulation 650/2012, on cross-border successions, the introduc­tion of the testator’s choice of the succession law stands out. In order to justify the institution and its inclusion in the European instrument, it is easy to imagine a kind of natural correlation between the free­dom of testation, granted by national law, and the possibility to select the applicable law which is charac­teristic of international inheritances. Nevertheless, scholars tend to invoke the security and predictability that professio juris provides in the estate planning. Yet resolutions stemming from Directorate General for Registries and Notary Affairs are based more on the freedom of testation than on legal certainty.Keywords: succession upon death, freedom of testation, cross-border successions, choice of law, tacit choice of law, legal certainty

Due to the lack of legal certainty in determining the law applicable to third-party effects of the assignment of claims and, consequently, determining the law applicable to the owner of the claim after a cross-border transaction, the European Commission proposed a new regulation aimed at increasing cross-border transactions investment and market integration. The aim of the new regulation is clear and the reasons for its proposal are understandable. Nevertheless, we wonder what impact the new regulation will have on cross-border transactions if it is adopted as it is right now. Will these uniform rules reduce legal risks and bring significant added value to financial markets?

This chapter discusses the law of set-off in Spain. Under Spanish law, set-off represents a means of extinguishing an obligation between a debtor and a creditor. Set-off occurs mainly as a form of payment rather than a guarantee. The chapter first considers set-off between solvent parties, focusing on the requirements of statutory set-off, set-off in case of assignment of credit rights, and set-off as a mechanism for creating security interests. It then examines set-off against insolvent parties, with emphasis on the scope of the prohibition set out in Article 58 of the Insolvency Act regarding set-off against an insolvent debtor and whether there are exceptions to this prohibition. The chapter also analyses set-off in financial transactions subject to Royal Decree Law 5/2005, along with cross-border situations relating to set-off against insolvent parties and choice of law with respect to set-off between solvent parties.

This chapter discusses the law of set-off and netting in Australia as well as the key restrictions on the availability of set-off under Australian law. In Australia, set-off and netting arrangements are often used as a means of reducing operational and credit risk. In the context of reducing credit risk involving financial rights and obligations (for example, deposits and loans), set-off and netting arrangements depend on one or more of: contract, section 553C of the Corporations Act 2001, and the Payment Systems and Netting Act 1998 (Netting Act). The chapter first considers set-off between solvent parties and set-off against insolvent parties before explaining set-off under section 553C of the Corporations Act. It also examines issues that may arise in cross-border transactions under Australian law with respect to the availability of set-off in section D of the Corporations Act, with emphasis on the choice of law and set-off in insolvency.

The study contains a step-by-step algorithm for determining the law applicable to private cross-border legal relations. The algorithm is developed based on legislation, law enforcement practice and doctrine. The initial rule of the sequential execution of the stages (steps) of the algorithm is a mechanism in which the determination of the law applicable to the legal relationship at one of the stages excludes the subsequent stages of the algorithm. Public policy interests dictate the rules for determining the law to be applied to private law relations complicated by a foreign element. The establishment by the legislator and law enforcement officer of the closest connection between the interests of conflicting public orders (legal orders) with elements of cross-border legal relations is the basis for the process regulation in the Russian Federation. At the first, second and third stages of the algorithm, the interests of the domestic public order (law and order) dominate. At the fourth stage of the algorithm, public interests in the part not regulated by super imperative norms are correlated with the agreement of the parties on the choice of the applicable law. At the fifth — eighth stages of the algorithm, the law enforcement officer is guided by the rules established by the legislator taking into account the interests of public orders that are conflicting in cross-border legal relations. At the last, ninth stage of the algorithm, the applicable law is established by the judge based on the closest connection between the interests of public order (law and order) with elements of crossborder legal relations.

This chapter discusses the law of set-off in Sweden. Set-off in Sweden has developed through case law and legal commentary although legislation has been considered necessary in certain areas such as bankruptcy. The legal landscape of set-off can be divided into two sets of principles, those applying outside bankruptcy and those applying in bankruptcy. The chapter first considers set-off between solvent parties, focusing on set-off after a transfer of the principal claim, contractual arrangements, and set-off as security interests. It then examines set-off against insolvent parties, with emphasis on restrictions regarding the right of set-off in bankruptcy, recovery of set-off effected before bankruptcy, and close-out netting. It also analyses cross-border issues with respect to applicable law for set-off outside bankruptcy, applicable law for set-off in bankruptcy, and the conditions for cross-border set-off under Swedish law.

Hal ini dikarenakan dalam Penjelasan pasal 55 ayat (2) menimbulkan ketidakpastian hukum antara pilihan hukum dalam lingkup peradilan umum dengan pilihan hukum dalam lingkup peradilan agama. Kepastian hukum secara normatif adalah ketika suatu peraturan dibuat dan diundangkan secara pasti karena dapat memberikan pengaturan secara jelas dan logis. Jelas dalam arti tidak menimbulkan keragu-raguan atau multi tafsir, dan logis dalam arti hukum tersebut menjadi suatu sistem norma dengan norma lain sehingga tidak berbenturan atau menimbulkan konflik norma ataupun adanya kekaburan dan kekosongan norma. Asas ini dapat dipergunakan untuk dapat mengatasi persoalan dalam hal konsep mekanisme dan pilihan hukum dalam penyelesaian sengketa perbankan syariah;Pilihan forum penyelesaian sengketa Perbankan Syariah berdasarkan Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi Republik Indonesia Nomor : 93/PUU-X/2012 Tanggal 29 Agustus 2013 yang membatalkan Penjelasan Pasal 55 ayat (2) Undang-Undang Republik Indonesia Nomor 21 Tahun 2008 Tentang Perbankan Syariah harus dinyatakan secara tegas menyatakan dan menyepakati apakah memilih forum Arbitrase Syariah atau menentukan pilihan forum Pengadilan Agama dalam rumusan klausula Penyelesaian Perselisihan atau Sengketa dalam Akad Perbankan Syariahnya. Artinya memilih atau menentukan salah satu forum mekanisme penyelesaian sengketa syariah yaitu forum BASYARNAS atau Pengadilan Agama, bukan menggabungkan keduanya dalam satu rangkaian rumusan klausula penyelesaian sengketa.Kata kunci : klausul penyelesaian sengketa, akad perbankan syariah, putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi ABSTRACTDecision of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia Number 93 / PUU-X / 2012 dated August 29, 2013 has annulled the Elucidation of Article 55 paragraph (2) of Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 21 Year 2008 concerning Sharia Banking is a matter of legal certainty. This is because in the Elucidation of article 55 paragraph (2) raises legal uncertainty between the choice of law within the scope of general justice with the choice of law within the scope of religious court. Normative legal certainty is when a rule is created and enacted as it can provide clear and logical arrangements. Clearly in the sense that there is no doubt or multi-interpretation, and logical in the sense that the law becomes a system of norms with other norms so as not to clash or cause conflict of norms or the existence of vagueness and void norms. This principle can be used to solve the problem in terms of the concept of mechanism and choice of law in solving the dispute of sharia banking;The choice of dispute resolution forum of Sharia Banking pursuant to Decision of Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia Number 93 / PUU-X / 2012 dated August 29, 2013 which annul the Elucidation of Article 55 paragraph (2) of Law of Republic of Indonesia Number 21 Year 2008 concerning Sharia Banking must be stated expressly declare and agree on whether to vote for a Shari'ah Arbitration Forum or to determine the choice of Religious Court forums in the formulation of a Clause or Dispute Settlement clause in its Sharia Banking Agreement. It means choosing or determining one of the forums of dispute resolution mechanism of sharia namely BASYARNAS or Religious Court, not merging the two in a series of dispute settlement clause formulas.Keywords: clause of dispute settlement, syariah banking contract, Constitutional Court decision

Of the title "The Legal Paradigm of the properties on the strata title ownership built above the land with the Right to Cultivate Ownership" research objectives to    be at said is knowing why the legal construction of the right material from the strata title built on land rights, attached to the Rights of material the building as common property rights and know how reconstruction material rights on the Strata titles  built on building rights or rights of use that reflects justice and legal certainty. With the concept of methodologies theories and research approaches, as well as of the problems of this study concludes that there are a couple of things. First by sticking the land rights of the unit, then Strata titles have a dependency on the bottom right HGB as with all buildings owned and also can weaken the property rights of apartment units as the strongest and most, but became assessors of HGB. This situation raises a negative implication in the community and has created legal uncertainty and considered unfair, weakening the material rights of Strata titles caused dualism applicable law, the law of the land, building law and the law of objects. It affects the mutual intervention and debilitates the material rights as stipulated in the rules of the law of things, namely; droit de suite, droit de preverent, and droit de levering. In construction law, state that debilitates the legal certainty and justice, it can be reconstructed from the perspective of the development of the legal system of the building against the law of the land, or to the development of HGB as of right down with some simulations and restoration of existing government regulations, or reconstruct the principal laws agrarian related lease rights, land rights, and the rights of use by developing existing government regulations become law, so the law on the new ground by adding the rights of others. In a reconstruction of the law of the land, which is more competitive and create legal certainty and fairness.
