Download or read book Civil Procedure in Italy written by Michele Angelo Lupoi and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this convenient volume provides comprehensive analysis of the legislation and rules that determine civil procedure and practice in Italy. Lawyers who handle transnational matters will appreciate the book’s clear explanation of distinct terminology and application of rules. The structure follows the classical chapters of a handbook on civil procedure: beginning with the judicial organization of the courts, jurisdiction issues, a discussion of the various actions and claims, and then moving to a review of the proceedings as such. These general chapters are followed by a discussion of the incidents during proceedings, the legal aid and legal costs, and the regulation of evidence. There are chapters on seizure for security and enforcement of judgments, and a final section on alternative dispute resolution. 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. Succinct, scholarly, and practical, this book will prove a valuable time-saving tool for business and legal professionals alike. Lawyers representing parties with interests in Italy will welcome this very useful guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its comparative value as a contribution to the study of civil procedure in the international context.

Download or read book Supreme Courts Under Pressure written by Pablo Bravo-Hurtado and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-13 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses civil litigation at the supreme courts of nine jurisdictions – Argentina, Austria, Croatia, England and Wales, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United States – and focuses on the available instruments used to keep the caseload of these courts within acceptable limits. Such instruments are necessary in order to allow supreme courts to fulfil their main duties, that is, the administration of justice in individual cases (private function) and providing for the uniformity and development of the law within their respective jurisdictions (public function). If the number of cases at the supreme court level is too high, the result is undue delays, which are mainly problematic with regard to the private function. It may also put the quality of the court’s judgments under pressure, which can affect its public and private function alike. Thus, measures aimed at avoiding excessive caseloads need to take both functions into account. Increasing the capacity of the court to handle larger numbers of cases may result in the court being unable to adequately fulfil its public function, since large numbers of court decisions make it difficult to guarantee the uniformity of the law and its development. Therefore, a balanced approach is needed to safeguard capacity and quality. As shown by the contributions gathered here, the nature of reform in this area is not the same everywhere. There are a variety of reasons for this heterogeneity, ranging from different understandings of the caseload problem itself, local conceptions regarding the purpose of the Supreme Court, and strong entitlements concerning the right to appeal to budgetary restrictions and extremely rigid legislation. The book also shows that the implementation of similar solutions to case overload, such as access filters, may have different effects in different jurisdictions. The conclusion might well be that the problem of overburdened courts is multifactorial and context-dependent, and that easy, one-size-fits-all solutions are hard to find and perhaps even harder to implement.

Download or read book Preliminary Injunctions Germany England Wales Italy and France written by Torsten Frank Koschinka and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2015-10-08 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every legal system, at the outset of court proceedings, has rules aimed at safeguarding parties' interests during the time needed to obtain a judgment on the merits. However, as the European Commission put the case in a 1997 communication, 'a comparative survey of national legislation reveals that there are virtually no definitions of provisional/protective measures and that the legal situations vary widely. The only convergence that can be ascertained is between the function of such measures.' Recognizing that after almost twenty years the issues noted by the Commission have not found a satisfactory solution, here at last is a book that collects and compares the ideas behind the 'preliminary injunction' (an expression the authors use as a general term for a great variety of provisional and precautionary measures) with an eye to defining and organizing this small but very important aspect of the law. Although the analysis touches on relevant measures from many countries, the authors focus on the national legislation in four EU Member States – England, France, Germany, and Italy – to highlight the nature of the differences these kinds of measures entail. They compare and contrast such aspects as the following: – differences in civil procedure; - the types of measures that may be taken; - the terms on which preliminary injunctions, which are normally directly enforceable, may be ordered by a court; - the kind of assets that may be affected; - the relationship between proceedings in an interlocutory action and proceedings on the substance; - necessity of credible evidence that immediate and irreparable injury, loss, or damage will result if no preliminary injunction is granted; and - the role of protective measures in summary proceedings. The study also describes and examines the recent European order for payment (EC Regulation No. 1896/2006), the most significant existing transnational instrument aimed at granting preliminary protection of creditors' rights. This incomparable book represents a major contribution to a growing debate, particularly in Europe, on ways and means of securing equivalent protection for all litigants. Given the variety of legal systems and of measures available, the debate will have to focus on the functions served by provisional/protective measures, the minimum conditions to be satisfied, the adversary procedure requirement, the enforceability of the measures, and possible redress procedures. There is no more thorough and reliable resource available to clarify these issues for practitioners and interested policymakers everywhere.

Download or read book International Arbitration in Italy written by Massimo V. Benedettelli and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2020-12-09 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arbitrating cross-border business disputes has been common practice in Italy since centuries. It is no wonder, then, that Italian arbitration law and jurisprudence are ample and sophisticated. Italian courts have already rendered thousands of judgments addressing complex problems hidden in the regulation of arbitration. Italian jurists have been among the outstanding members of the international arbitration community, starting from when back in 1958, Professor Eugenio Minoli was among the promoters of the New York Convention. Being Italy the third-largest economy in the European Union and the eighth-largest economy by nominal GDP in the world, it also comes as no surprise that Italian companies, and foreign companies with respect to the business they do in the Italian market, are among the main ‘users’ of international arbitration, nor that Italy is part to a network of more than 80 treaties aimed to protect inbound and outbound foreign direct investments and being the ground for investment arbitration cases. Moreover, in recent years, Italy has risen to prominence as a neutral arbitral seat, in particular for the settlement of ‘intra-Mediterranean’ disputes, also thanks to the reputation acquired by the Milan Chamber of Arbitration which has become one of the main European arbitral institutions. This book is the first commentary on international arbitration in Italy ever written in English. It is an indispensable tool for arbitrators, counsel, experts, officers of arbitral institutions and judges who happen to be involved in arbitral proceedings or arbitration-related court proceedings somewhat linked to the Italian legal system, either because Italy is the seat of the arbitration, the Italian jurisdiction has been ousted by a foreign-seated arbitration, the assistance of Italian courts is sought for the granting of interim measures or the enforcement of a foreign award or the arbitration results from a multilateral or bilateral investment protection treaty to which Italy is a party. This book may also be of general interest for scholars and practitioners of international arbitration at large to the extent that it deals with the ‘theory’ of international arbitration and illustrates original solutions offered by Italian arbitration law to various complex issues, such as: the potential conflicts (and required balance) between party autonomy and State sovereignty in the governance of arbitrations; the relationship between the New York Convention and the legal system of the State of the arbitral seat; the potential impact on cross-border arbitrations of insolvencies, human rights, or European Union law; the arbitrability of corporate disputes; the extension of arbitration agreements to ‘necessary parties’. Appendixes include an English translation of the main provisions of Italian law relevant to arbitration, a list of the investment protection treaties to which Italy is a party, and an English version of the Rules of Arbitration of the Milan Chamber of Arbitration. The author, who is full professor of international law, name partner of ArbLit (the first Italian boutique focusing on cross-border dispute settlement) and the current Italian member of the ICC Court of Arbitration, has written the book aiming to combine his academic background with his long-standing experience as counsel and arbitrator.

Download or read book Attachment of Assets written by Lawrence W. Newman and published by Juris Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2014-03-01 with total page 2018 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practitioners from leading firms in over 90 countries provide practical information about procedural and substantive issues regarding attachment of assets. Because the availability of attachments in advance of judgments can make the difference between success and failure in a lawsuit for money damages, and because attachments may often be obtained in places far removed from the venues of proceedings on the merits, it is important for litigation counsel to be aware of the potential for multi-jurisdictional assaults on the assets of their clients or of their clients’ adversaries. Attachment of Assets is designed to give practical information and guidance to lawyers and businessmen who are interested in securing expected future judgments and in making strategic decisions concerning the deployment of moveable assets in the face of possible attachments of them. The chapters, each discussing the requirements of a separate country, are written by lawyers with practical expertise in this field. The procedure by which attachments are obtained vary, ranging from court orders authorizing a court official to take custody of a defendant’s assets to orders restraining the defendant from transferring his assets. The effects of such orders differ as well: some create a lien superior to those of other creditors and others do no more than immobilize the debtor’s assets, leaving them open to being levied upon by later-arriving judgment creditors. Countries vary in the ways in which they permit attachments to be carried out -- whether, for example, all of the banks in a given city may be served with attachment notices or orders. They vary as well with respect to the information that is imparted to the attaching creditor after attachment orders have been served. Some rules make available to creditor information concerning the value of assets on which they have successfully levied, while others leave creditors in the dark, or dependent on informal hints from garnishees as to whether or not pay dirt has been struck. Most importantly, jurisdictional requirements for the issuance of attachment orders are not similar. Some countries permit attachments only if the defendant is subject to the jurisdiction of their courts with respect to the merits of the case. Others are less demanding, permitting attachments solely on the basis and to the extent of the presence of the assets successfully attached. It is probably fair to say that, in many foreign jurisdictions, the protection of creditors through fraudulent conveyance laws and the like is inadequate, or even, as a practical matter, unavailable. The enforcement of judgments is therefore often dependent on a creditor’s ability to obtain -- early, even prior to the commencement of a lawsuit -- a prejudgment attachment (or the equivalent) of his debtor’s assets. The extent to which attachments are obtainable in various countries of the world and the basis under which they may be obtained under local law are the focus of Attachment of Assets. Format of Publication: Organized in a uniform question and answer format that addresses the receptiveness of each country toward the attachment of assets; the procedural requirements for filing for attachment; reciprocity; treaty provisions; and defenses. Every Chapter is organized with the same special three part arrangement - allowing you to quickly and easily locate the information you need for each country. Part I contains a survey of the current attitude of each country’s courts and government toward the attachment of assets, including anticipated changes and recent cases. Part II discusses procedure the judgment creditor must follow to file for the attachment of assets in the other country, including translation of the judgment, currency conversion, attorneys’ fees and recovery of interest. Part III summarizes the requirements the judgment creditor must meet for attachment, and the defense the judgment, and the defenses the judgment debtor must establish to prevent attachment.

This book was released on 1999-11-25 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a very meaningful way, the health of a judicial system may be judged by the care with which its procedural rights are observed. Now, in a book that takes stock of this important element as it is currently used or abused in a number of the world's legal systems, eighteen outstanding scholars approach the subject through an analysis of the following factors: the theoretical and moral implications of procedural abuses the subjects who commit them the typologies of abusive practices the consequences of abusive practices Several authors report on practices in their own countries, revealing distinct evidence of a significant degree of lowered procedural standards in the United States, several European countries, Australia, Japan, and Latin America. General and final reports provide a comparative framework for an analytical study that will repay the study of anyone concerned with the fairness of our legal institutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive analysis of personal participation in criminal proceedings and in absentia trials. Going beyond the accused-centred perspective of default proceedings, it not only examines the consequences of absence in various types of criminal proceedings, but also the fair trial safeguards allowing personal contributions during trials, as well as in pre-trial inquiries, higher instances and transborder procedures. By pursuing an interdisciplinary approach and employing comparative-law methodologies, the book presents a cross-section of twelve European criminal justice systems with regard to the requirements set forth by constitutional, international and EU law.

Download or read book Fairness in Criminal Appeal written by Helena Morão and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-02-10 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the European Court of Human Rights’ fairness standards in criminal appeal, filling a gap in this less researched area of studies. Based on a fair trial immediacy requirement, the Court has found several violations of Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights at the appellate level by at least eighteen States of the Council of Europe in a vast array of cases, particularly in contexts of first instance acquittals overturning and of sentences increasing on appeal. On the one hand, the book critically engages this case-law with the law revisions it has recently inspired in European countries, as well as with the critiques and difficulties that it continues to raise. On the other hand, it interweaves insight from criminal procedure theory with new discoveries in the field of cognitive sciences (neuroscience of memory, philosophy of knowledge, AI), shedding an interdisciplinary light on the (in)adequacy and limits of the Strasbourg Court’s jurisprudence.
