Download or read book Contract Law in Poland written by Piotr Machnikowski and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2020-12-20 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this practical analysis of the law of contracts in Poland covers every aspect of the subject - definition and classification of contracts, contractual liability, relation to the law of property, good faith, burden of proof, defects, penalty clauses, arbitration clauses, remedies in case of non-performance, damages, power of attorney, and much more. Lawyers who handle transnational contracts will appreciate the explanation of fundamental differences in terminology, application, and procedure from one legal system to another, as well as the international aspects of contract law. Throughout the book, the treatment emphasizes drafting considerations. An introduction in which contracts are defined and contrasted to torts, quasi-contracts, and property is followed by a discussion of the concepts of ‘consideration’ or ‘cause’ and other underlying principles of the formation of contract. Subsequent chapters cover the doctrines of ‘relative effect’, termination of contract, and remedies for non-performance. The second part of the book, recognizing the need to categorize an agreement as a specific contract in order to determine the rules which apply to it, describes the nature of agency, sale, lease, building contracts, and other types of contract. Facts are presented in such a way that readers who are unfamiliar with specific terms and concepts in varying contexts will fully grasp their meaning and significance. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable time-saving tool for business and legal professionals alike. Lawyers representing parties with interests in Poland will welcome this very useful guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative contract law.

Download or read book Gain based Remedies for Breach of Contract written by Daniel Zatorski and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-02-15 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on an emerging problem in English contract law: what should be done when a party has been unjustly enriched as the result of a breach of contract but there is no measurable loss suffered by said party? Two rulings are at the heart of the book: Wrotham Park Estate v Parkside Homes and Attorney-General v Blake. These two cases can be said to have established gain-based remedies in English contract law. However, the principles that underpin these remedies are not entirely clear and are subject to debate. This book analyses these principles through the lens of compensatory and restitutionary approaches. Moreover, it applies a comparative analysis of these approaches through the lens of the civil law jurisdiction in Poland. Since the term ‘compensation’ is not a universal concept, the book distinguishes between two rationales in the compensatory analysis. The first, reparative compensation, is defined as a form of monetary recompense for loss or damage actually suffered. The second, substitutive compensation, represents a monetary equivalent to a right that a person has been deprived of or denied. Both rationales require the application of a broad notion of loss in order to make gain-based remedies workable in both English and Polish law. In contrast, ‘restitution’ states that a person cannot be permitted to profit from their own wrongdoing. Based on this principle, the book argues that gain-based remedies could be applied under Polish law through the rules of unjust enrichment. However, in order to do so, a broader understanding of the subtraction prerequisite (the enrichment being at the aggrieved party’s expense) would have to be adopted. The book concludes that unjust enrichment is a more natural way of implementing gain-based remedies in civil law jurisdictions.

Download or read book Animals as specific objects of obligations under Polish and German law written by Małgorzata Lubelska-Sazanów and published by V&R unipress. This book was released on 2021-01-18 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defining where the needs of contracting parties end, and where the mistreatment of animals begins is especially difficult in contract law, where protecting animals is not a basic premise. Thus, although animal law is a widely discussed topic, the position of animals under civil law has not been discussed comprehensively before. The first chapters of the book set the background for subsequent civil law considerations given that the object of a contractual obligation is an animal, and the impact this has on the conclusion, performance and consequences of non-performance of a contract. It constitutes a unique interdisciplinary and comparative work focused mainly on animals in contractual relations (e.g. sale, donation, lease, tenancy, commission, agency, safe-keeping, training contracts).

Download or read book Polish Tenancy Law and the Principles of European Contract Law written by Ewa Gromnicka and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides an introduction to the Polish law of tenancy and a brief analysis of the changes this field of law has experienced in recent years. The last decade has witnessed comprehensive law reform in Poland, particularly in the ambit of civil law and civil procedure, primarily to enhance consumer protection. In addition to difficulties arising from an overhaul of the judicial system and transformations wrought by the re-privatisation process, a general lack of clarity further remains with regard to the ownership of private property and to the doctrine of restitution. As a result, the application of the law in this field has been in a something of a general flux. The report offers a comprehensive overview of the historical background of civil law developments in Poland together with the particularities of the system as it functioned under the Communist rule, moving later to recount the recent law reforms and constitutional influences as exhibited since the adoption of 1997 Constitution. It addresses in more detail the basic structure and content of the current tenancy law together with the legal concepts of the lease contract and other forms of lawful possession of premises for housing purposes. Later on social regulations affecting private tenancy contracts are analysed. Then a summary account on 'tenancy law in action' is provided. It comprises economic considerations that influence the application of law in the field. Then it moves on to discuss the role of association of tenants and consumers and the alternative dispute resolution. In conclusion it provides account of the practice of tenancy law in Polish courts and the effectiveness of access to justice of the interested parties. The final part of the report consists of analysis of a set of hypothetical cases concerning conclusion of the tenancy contract (including the choice of tenant and formal requirements of the contract). This is followed by analysis of the issues of the duration and termination of the contract, rent and rent increase. Obligations of the parties in the performance of the contract and standard terms are part of a separate set of cases. The case studies are concluded by analysing the issues of the breach of contract and relationship between the Tenant and Third Persons.
Download or read book Service Contracts written by Maurits Barendrecht and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2009-04-27 with total page 1095 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rules presented in this volume of "Principles of European Law" deal with service contracts. The economic importance of service contracts within the European Union is enormous. The European Commission recently estimated that services account for some 50% of EU GDP and for some 60% of employment in the Union – though an exact figure is hard to determine given that many services are provided by manufacturers of goods. According to the European Commission, many services appear in official statistics as manufacturing activity, meaning that the role of services in the economy is often significantly underestimated.
