Download or read book Il nuovo diritto internazionale privato europeo delle successioni written by Angelo Davi' and published by G Giappichelli Editore. This book was released on 2014-09-18 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il regolamento UE 650/2012, che sarà applicabile negli Stati membri dell’Unione europea, con l’eccezione di Danimarca, Irlanda e Regno Unito, a partire dal 17 agosto 2015, disciplina tutti gli aspetti internazionalprivatistici di una successione: la competenza dei giudici e altre autorità, la legge applicabile, la circolazione delle decisioni giudiziarie e degli atti pubblici. Esso istituisce altresì il certificato successorio europeo, nuovo tipo di atto pubblico destinato ad avere effetti in tutti gli Stati membri partecipanti. Il volume presenta in maniera esaustiva l’ampia e articolata disciplina dettata dal regolamento, contribuendo a facilitarne l’interpretazione e fornendo approfondimenti degli aspetti più complessi. Le nuove norme, che si applicano a tutte le successioni internazionali, comprese quelle che possiedono elementi di collegamento con paesi non membri della UE, innovano radicalmente la disciplina italiana vigente: in particolare, esse sostituiscono al principio della sottoposizione della successione alla legge nazionale del de cujus quello dell’applicabilità della legge del paese della sua ultima residenza abituale, pur accordando all’interessato una facoltà di opzione, esercitabile tramite una disposizione adottata in forma testamentaria, in favore della prima legge. La nuova normativa contiene inoltre regole particolareggiate sui patti successori, finora non esplicitamente disciplinati dalla legislazione italiana. Vengono altresì unificate fra gli Stati membri partecipanti le regole sulla giurisdizione e sul riconoscimento delle decisioni. Si tratta nel complesso di una normativa coerente e completa, destinata ad avere un rilevante impatto pratico e a recare un contributo significativo allo sviluppo dello spazio europeo di libertà, sicurezza e giustizia.

Download or read book Imperativeness in Private International Law written by Giovanni Zarra and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book centres on the ways in which the concept of imperativeness has found expression in private international law (PIL) and discusses “imperative norms”, and “imperativeness” as their intrinsic quality, examining the rules or principles that protect fundamental interests and/or the values of a state so as to require their application at any cost and without exceptions. Discussing imperative norms in PIL means referring to international public policy and overriding mandatory rules: in this book the origins, content, scope and effects of both these forms of imperativeness are analyzed in depth. This is a subject deserving further study, considering that very divergent opinions are still emerging within academia and case law regarding the differences between international public policy and overriding mandatory rules as well as with regard to their way of functioning. By using an approach mainly based on an analysis of the case law of the CJEU and of the courts of the various European countries, the book delves into the origin of imperativeness since Roman law, explains how imperative norms have evolved in the different conceptions of private international law, and clarifies the foundation of the differences between international public policy and overriding mandatory rules and how these concepts are used in EU Regulations on PIL (and in the practice related to these sources of law). Finally, the work discusses the influence of EU and public international law sources on the concept of imperativeness within the legal systems of European countries and whether a minimum content of imperativeness – mainly aimed at ensuring the protection of fundamental human rights in transnational relationships – between these countries has emerged. The book will prove an essential tool for academics with an interest in the analysis of these general concepts and practitioners having to deal with the functioning of imperative norms in litigation cases and in the drafting of international contracts. Giovanni Zarra is Assistant professor of international law and private international law and transnational litigation in the Department of Law of the Federico II University of Naples.

Download or read book The Characterization of Provisions Protecting Forced Heirs Against Lifetime Dispositions written by Raphael de Barros Fritz and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2023-07-07 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Normally, forced heirship is primarily associated with a restraint of the decedent's testamentary freedom of disposition. Nevertheless, to effectively protect the forced heirs, forced heirship systems usually also contain various mechanisms to restrain the decedent's lifetime freedom of disposition. Scholars and courts have been debating the proper characterization of these mechanisms in conflicts of laws for decades. Raphael de Barros Fritz addresses the many open questions surrounding this issue by analysing the characterization of forced heirship mechanisms in the laws of Louisiana and Germany.

Download or read book Planning the Future of Cross Border Families written by Ilaria Viarengo and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-15 with total page 975 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is built upon the outcomes of the EUFam's Project, financially supported by the EU Civil Justice Programme and led by the University of Milan. Also involved are the Universities of Heidelberg, Osijek, Valencia and Verona, the MPI in Luxembourg, the Italian and Spanish Family Lawyers Associations and training academies for judges in Italy and Croatia. The book seeks to offer an exhaustive overview of the regulatory framework of private international law in family and succession matters.

The book also contains national reports from 6 Member States and annexes of interest for both legal scholars and practitioners (policy guidelines, model clauses and protocols).

Download or read book Borders Legal Spaces and Territories in Contemporary International Law written by Tommaso Natoli and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-09-12 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the challenges posed to contemporary international law by the shifting role of the border, which has recently re-emerged as a central issue in international relations. It posits that borders do not merely correspond to States’ boundaries: indeed, while remaining a fundamental tool for asserting States’ power, they are in fact a collection of constantly changing spatial limits. Consequently, the book approaches borders as context-specific limits and revisits notions traditionally linked to them (jurisdiction, sovereignty, responsibility, individual rights), while also adopting the innovative approach of viewing borders as phenomena of both closedness and openness. Accordingly, the first part of the book addresses what happens “within” borders, investigating the root causes of the emergence of spatial limits and re-assessing apparent extra-territorial assertions of State power. In turn, the second part not only explores typical borderless spaces, but also more generally considers the exercise of States’ and international organisations’ powers and prerogatives across or “beyond” borders.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'opera evidenzia la stretta esigenza di regolamentare la materia giuridica delle successioni internazionali, la quale nasce dalla constatazione che circa 12,3 milioni di cittadini europei vivono in un altro Stato membro e ogni anno nell’UE si aprono circa 450.000 successioni per un valore di 120 miliardi di euro. Si ritiene indispensabile avere una Normativa compiuta e strutturata per garantire una certezza della materia giuridica delle successioni internazionali mortis causa.

Download or read book Application of Foreign Law written by Carlos Esplugues Mota and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011-03-30 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last decade Europe has undertaken an active and broad process of harmonisation of choice-of-law rules within the EU. However, this drastic movement towards a harmonised system has so far left aside a highly relevant issue: the application by judicial and non-judicial authorities of the foreign law. In full contrast to the little attention so far paid to it in the EU, this issue is said to be the crux of the conflict of laws. It violates legal certainty and contradicts the objective of ensuring full access to justice to all European citizens within the EU. This book provides a comparative study of the existing situation in all EU member states and drafts some basic principles for a future European instrument. It will become a highly useful tool for lawyers, judges, notaries, land registries, academics, prosecutors etc.

Download or read book Successioni transfrontaliere tra diritto interno e diritto internazionale written by Costanza Marrese and published by Key Editore. This book was released on 2019-09-20 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La residenza abituale del defunto al momento della morte è il nuovo criterio di collegamento per la determinazione della legge applicabile e della competenza in materia di successioni transfrontaliere (Reg. U.E. 650/2012). Questo criterio -elaborato dal legislatore europeo per ottenere un sistema uniforme fra gli Stati, facilitare il family planning, garantire la coincidenza tra forum e ius e favorire l’integrazione sociale e giuridica delle persone- prende il posto della disciplina di diritto internazionale privato nazionale previgente in materia di successioni. Gli obiettivi di questo studio sono quelli di esaminare le caratteristiche del nuovo criterio di collegamento, fornire indicazioni pratiche agli operatori e proporre elementi de iure condendo volti a semplificare il sistema. Nella prima parte dello studio, dopo il confronto con la legge nazionale previgente, si analizzano la residenza abituale e le relative deroghe contenute nel Regolamento europeo. Nella seconda parte, invece, si indaga sui vantaggi e gli svantaggi di questo criterio, suggerendo all’operatore le linee guida per superare le difficoltà applicative e al legislatore europeo elementi de iure condendo.

Download or read book Comparative Succession Law written by Kenneth G C Reid and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-10-09 with total page 832 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third volume in a series on Comparative Succession Law concerns the entitlement of family members to override the provisions of a deceased person's will to obtain money or assets (or more money or assets) from the person's estate. Some countries, notably those in the civil law tradition (such as France or Germany), confer a pre-ordained share of the deceased's estate or of its value on certain members of the deceased's family, and especially on the deceased's children and spouse. Other countries, notably those in the common law tradition (such as England, Canada, or Australia), leave the matter to the discretion of the court, the amount awarded depending primarily on financial need. Whichever form it takes, mandatory family provision is both a protection against disinheritance and also, therefore, a restriction on testamentary freedom. The volume focuses on Europe and on countries influenced by the European experience. In addition to detailed treatment of the law in Austria, England and Wales, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Scotland, and Spain, the book also has chapters on Australia and New Zealand, South Africa, the United States, Canada, the countries of Latin America, and the People's Republic of China. Some other countries are covered more briefly, and there is a separate chapter on Islamic law. The book opens with accounts of Roman law and of the law in medieval and early-modern Europe, and it concludes with a comparative assessment of the law as it is today in the countries and legal traditions surveyed in this volume.
