Book excerpt: Since the adoption of the EU Regulation on Insolvency Proceedings in 2000 and its recast in 2015, it has become clear that lawyers engaged in consumer insolvency proceedings are increasingly expected to have a basic understanding of foreign insolvency proceedings, as well as knowledge of the foreign country's court and legal system, legislation and judicial practice. Written by 50 highly qualified insolvency experts from 30 European countries, A Guide to Consumer Insolvency Proceedings in Europe provides the necessary information in the largest, most up-to-date and comprehensive book on this topic.

With contributions by both academics and practitioners, it provides truly multinational coverage of the economic, legal, social, political, and demographic issues in consumer insolvency. Illustrating the numerous practices across Europe, this book allows the reader to evaluate each aspect both on its own merits, as well as in comparison to the approaches applied in other European jurisdictions.

Download or read book Enforcement of Arbitral Awards Against Sovereigns written by R. Doak Bishop and published by Juris Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2009-09-01 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past decade has seen a veritable explosion of investment treaty and other arbitration claims brought against sovereigns. Many of those cases have been filed before the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Claims (ICSID), which has its own self-contained rules for enforcement. Given this significant increase in sovereign cases and the issues attendant to sovereign immunity, this treatise is timely in addressing the various issues that arise in enforcing arbitral awards against sovereigns. One of the first questions posed to their counsel by clients considering the initiation of an arbitration proceeding against a sovereign state is whether and how the resulting award can be enforced. The origin of the client’s question is usually based in some knowledge that a state possesses sovereign immunity, along with an uncertain concern about the exceptions to such immunity and the difficulties of enforcement against a sovereign’s assets. This uncertainty is understandable, especially in light of the sometimes confusing and even contradictory court decisions in certain jurisdictions. It is these inquiries in their broadest application that form the subject of this treatise. With contributions by eminent and experienced practitioners of the multiple issues that have arisen in various jurisdictions and the key cases that have created the law of enforcement of obligations against sovereigns, this book will provide access to valuable information, add to the transparency of this subject and further spur the consistent development of this area of law. This book is divided into three parts. The first part is general in nature and includes chapters encompassing the subjects of sovereign immunity in general (including both immunity from jurisdiction and immunity from enforcement), treaty obligations to honor awards, diplomatic protection by a claimant’s government to obtain payment of awards, and conciliation and settlement. The second part of the book deals with the means of enforcing awards. Part three of this treatise addresses the enforcement issues that arise in specific jurisdictions in which enforcement against sovereign assets is often sought - in particular, the United States, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, France, The Netherlands, and South America.

Download or read book The Carriage of Goods in Swiss Law written by Vesna Polić Foglar and published by Stämpfli Verlag. This book was released on 2022-08-19 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Swiss legal regime differs considerably from the regimes of its neighbouring countries. Swiss law on the carriage of goods is based on the provisions of the Code of Obligations from the early 20th century. Some other laws, various ordinances and international conventions that govern different modes of transportation also apply. All this makes this field of law complex – not only for non-Swiss professionals. This book gives a comprehensive overview of the contract of carriage and the carriers' and freight forwarders' liability, the insurance of goods and of liability, the jurisdiction of Swiss courts and the possibilities of recourse actions. The Carriage of Goods in Swiss Law provides valuable knowledge to properly handle transport business, claims and insurance. It offers reflections on the shortcomings and the development of Swiss laws and regulations. Written for practitioners and lawyers in the country and abroad, the book can serve to all those whose claims may be decided before a Swiss court. Vesna Polić Foglar is an of-counsel in Zurich with over 20 years of experience. She specialises in Swiss transport law, the international carriage of goods, transport insurance and in dealing with transport claims.
