This article explains in detail the rules on the obligations of the judge, the parties and their lawyers in civil litigation, prepared by a working group that was established within the context of a project on European Rules of Civil Procedure of the European Law Institute and UNIDROIT. These rules are grouped into several parts devoted to the overriding objective of the proposed rules, management and planning of the proceedings, the determination of facts, findings of law, and consensual dispute resolution. The suggested rules reflect best practices in European civil procedure.

International Conventions

The law of international civil procedure, in some systems treated as part of the conflict of laws (private international law), governs international disputes where the parties to a transaction did not for arbitration as dispute-resolution mechanism and where such disputes are dealt with in domestic courts. The principal issues are as follows. Which courts have jurisdiction? Are provisional and protective measures available? How are proceedings conducted in cases involving parties from different countries, in particular how are they served with documents and how is the taking of evidence organized? Will a judgment or other type of decision rendered by the courts of one country be recognized and enforceable in other countries? In the EU these matters are dealt with by genuine Union law, such as the Brussels I bis Regulation. In the Member States of the MERCOSUR, the approach is still more conservative (‘indirect’ instead of ‘direct’ determination of adjudicatory jurisdiction). US courts apply the common law of the State where they sit, and their approach to using traditional concepts, such as discovery, as an alternative to rules provided for in international conventions creates what is known as the ‘judicial conflict’ between US and courts in other parts of the world. First steps to harmonize the law of civil procedure are currently bearing fruit.

Observational Techniques

The focus of discussion in Working Group 3 was on the Thermodynamic Properties as determined spectroscopically, including the observational techniques and the theoretical modeling of physical processes responsible for the emission spectrum. Recent advances in observational techniques and theoretical concepts make this discussion particularly timely. It is wise to remember that the determination of thermodynamic parameters is not an end in itself and that these are interesting chiefly for what they can tell us about the energetics and mass transport in prominences.

Procedural Reform

The article examines some of the results of the procedural reform in terms of the resolution of corporate disputes by courts. The authors formulated four main theses that reflect the essence of this reform: the division of competence in corporate disputes between courts of general jurisdiction and arbitration courts, the expansion of the arbitrability of corporate disputes, the implementation of the principle of one-time consideration of a corporate dispute, the consolidation of new subjects of civil proceedings in corporate disputes not named in the general part of the Commercial Procedure Code of the RF and the Code of Civil Procedure of the RF.
