Course objectives, requirements, and teaching aids are outlined, and some thoughts on integrating these diverse topics are included.

In recent years, those involved in regulating, forming or advising faith communities have had much to contend with: the expansion of the vicarious liability doctrine, the status of ministers of religion and the decision in Shergill v Khaira, not to mention the General Data Protection Regulation. These issues share a common denominator: they require faith communities to give close consideration to the values which they seek to articulate and foster in the expression of their own autonomy and right of self-determination. That is, they serve as a prompt to reconnect with the intellectus and vinculo iuris of their own ecclesial norms. This article is intended to encourage such an exercise and to contribute to a discussion of the potential points of collaboration between the civil law and faith communities in securing dispute resolution by which ecclesial values may be accommodated.

The aim of the paper is to present the subject matter related to the procedure of resolving disputes arising in connection with implementation of agreements concluded on the basis of contract models published by the international federation FIDIC in 1999 Red and Yellow Book. The intention of the authors of the FIDIC templates was to apply an autonomous multistage procedure (the so-called multi-step clause) for resolving disputes based on arbitration without taking the matter to court. However, the application of the procedure proposed by FIDIC raises controversies of legal and factual nature. The problems concern, in particular: the nature, immediate enforceability, contestability of decisions issued by the Dispute Adjudication Board (DAB) and methods of their reinforcement. Other issues concern the absence of ‘standing’ or ‘full-term’ Adjudication Board and the right to arbitration in case when a party violates the internal dispute resolution procedure described in the contract, both for reasons dependent on and beyond its control. The publication is of legal and comparative nature and contains the analysis of related jurisprudence of civil law systems of selected countries.

Relations which appear from legal actions do not always end well. It is not seldom that it may end with conflicts or disputes which end in court. To demand for the rights which appear from those legal relations, there needs to be some procedures and regulations so that the demand of rights may be carried out according to the law. The law which regulates those things are usually called the civil law procedures. The resolution of civil disputes in court (litigation) and the resolution of civil disputes through a non-court manner (non-litigation) in the context of the divorce dispute resolution in the Religious Court, is a combination between the litigation and the nonlitigation mmethods. This is rather interesting to be studied. The interesting part is its effectivity as a preventive or a repressive effort in handling the divorce cases in the Religious Court.

Using conceptual and statute approach, this article attempts to look at proofing principles may arise in arbitrary mechanism based on the law mentioned and based on the actual practice.Keywords : arbitrary, proofing principles, civil procedural law.

This chapter addresses the interrelated topics of law and citizenship in Roman Achaia. The epigraphic evidence for cohabitation of Greek and resident Roman communities since the second century BCE, as well as the consequences of Roman military involvement—namely the creation of citizen colonies, administrative and political restructuring, transfers of land, and displacement of populations—inevitably raise questions of juridical gradation between and within the communities of mainland Greece. The spread of Roman citizenship on the one hand, and the persistence of the importance of local citizenships on the other, are directly relevant to the questions of jurisdiction and legal development in the province. Among the most discernible changes in juridical matters of the region is the decline of interstate arbitration and judicial capacities of territorial leagues. The institution of foreign judges, although still mentioned in epigraphic sources of the mid-second century CE, likely lost its original functionality too. Inter-community disputes fell under the complete jurisdiction of Roman authorities by the early first century CE, and the development of territorial dispute resolution under Rome reveals various points of interaction between Hellenistic arbitral practices and the procedural framework of Roman civil law. That said, the governor’s court, whether operating on an assize system or not, could not have been easily accessible, and private law matters within a polis were often dealt with by local judiciaries.
