Download or read book Global Environmental Constitutionalism written by James R. May and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflecting a global trend, scores of countries have affirmed that their citizens are entitled to healthy air, water, and land and that their constitution should guarantee certain environmental rights. This book examines the increasing recognition that the environment is a proper subject for protection in constitutional texts and for vindication by constitutional courts. This phenomenon, which the authors call environmental constitutionalism, represents the confluence of constitutional law, international law, human rights, and environmental law. National apex and constitutional courts are exhibiting a growing interest in environmental rights, and as courts become more aware of what their peers are doing, this momentum is likely to increase. This book explains why such provisions came into being, how they are expressed, and the extent to which they have been, and might be, enforced judicially. It is a singular resource for evaluating the content of and hope for constitutional environmental rights.

Download or read book Nulidad de actuaciones en el proceso civil y penal written by César Martínez Fagúndez and published by Civitas. This book was released on 2008-02 with total page 1814 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El objeto de este libro, como su título indica, es poner de manifiesto los vicios de forma, y otros defectos procesales que pueden dar lugar a la nulidad de actuaciones. Concretamente, se estudian en él los casos de nulidad debidos a la no intervención de determinadas personas en los procesos (Abogado, Procurador, Mo Fiscal), la falta de litisconsorcio pasivo necesario, los vicios de forma relacionados con la competencia objetiva y funcional de los Tribunales, con la demanda y emplazamientos, con la actividad probatoria, la incongruencia de las Sentencias etc..., insistiendo de una manera particular, y por lo que al proceso penal se refiere, en las nulidades que pueden existir en el sumario, en el juicio oral y en el procedimiento abreviado. El autor realiza en esta obra un estudio minucioso de la jurisprudencia del Tribunal Supremo, relacionada asimismo con la nulidad de actuaciones. La abundantísima serie de casos en ella reseñados permitirá a los profesionales del Derecho, en particular a los Abogados, alegar, y en su caso obtener, la nulidad de lo actuado, tanto en los procesos civiles como en los penales.

Download or read book Nulidad de actuaciones en el procedimiento y proceso administrativo written by César Martínez Fagúndez and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 1698 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La declaración por los Tribunales de la nulidad de actuaciones en el proceso administrativo es, si cabe, todavía más importante que en el proceso civil y penal, toda vez que los efectos son, con frecuencia, mucho más radicales y perentorios. En efecto, en los procesos civiles y penales la declaración de la nulidad de actuaciones tiene casi siempre como único efecto la reposición de los autos en el momento en que se cometió la falta o defecto procesal, continuando luego el proceso por sus cauces normales hasta que se dicta sentencia, mientras que en lo contencioso administrativo la nulidad de lo actuado muchas veces tiene como consecuencia ineludible la nulidad de todo el proceso. Verdad es que en algunos casos, la nulidad de actuaciones en el proceso penal puede tener como resultado la absolución y puesta en libertad del reo, por ejemplo cuando todas las pruebas de cargo han sido obtenidas de una manera ilegal, empero ello no suele ser frecuente, pues casi siempre ha habido alguna o algunas correctamente obtenidas en las que el Tribunal puede fundamentar su fallo. En los procesos administrativos, la combinación de la nulidad de actuaciones con el instituto jurídico de la prescripción, puede adquirir una capital importancia y unas dimensiones extraordinarias. Esta obra es más que un simple tratado sobre la Nulidad de actuaciones. En efecto, en la numerosa jurisprudencia del Tribunal Supremo en ella recogida, podrán los profesionales de Derecho encontrar abundantes indicaciones sobre muchos errores que se deben evitar, no sólo concernientes a las notificaciones, sino también a otros trámites del procedimiento y proceso administrativos, como pueden ser la manera de proponer la demanda, la propuesta de prueba y su celebración, etc...
