Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the context of the harmonisation of European contract law this is a hot topic: The new volume of the Principles of European Law deals with mandate contracts, i.e. contracts whereby an agent concludes a contract with a third party for the benefit of a principal. The Principles of European Law on Mandate Contracts do not only mirror the provisions on these contracts in the Draft Common Frame of Reference (DCFR), but also contain a more comprehensive explanation of these provisions. Moreover, they provide details on the functioning of mandate contracts in the laws of the Member States. Thus, the principles are conducive to advance the process of Europeanisation of private law.

Download or read book The Mandate Contract in Selected Civil Law Statutes and DCFR written by Zvonimir Slakoper and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion of the mandate contract in DCFR is in some aspects wider in comparison with its notion in BGB, CC, CLO and OR. While these Laws see the mandate contract as a contract where mandator confers to mandatary and mandatary obliges to mandatory to carry out one or more transactions, its notion in DCFR emphasizes also intermediary contracts (contracts for mediation) and the relations based on the act of authority given by one person to the other (representative). It is wider also in prescribing the possibility to conclude this contract for fixed period or/and for indefinite time. On the other side, DCFR see the mandate contract - in principle - ending when the representative (agent) conclude the contract with third party, while mentioned Statutes see it ending when mandatary and third party exchange performances in their relation and when mandatary transfers to the mandator whatever received from third party.
Download or read book Mandate on the Department of Defense s Contract Award Procedures for Directed Spending Items written by Andrew Sherrill and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2009-06 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nat. Def. Auth. Act for FY 2008 directed the auditor to compare procedures used for awarding noncompetitive defense contracts for new projects pursuant to: (1) congressionally directed spending items or congressional earmarks; and (2) the special interests of senior exec. branch officials. The auditor has concluded that it is not feasible for him to address the mandate. First, he has not found a sound approach for systematically identifying "new projects of special interest to senior exec. branch officials." And, he was unable to apply the definitions of "congressional earmarks" because of data availability and timing issues. This report summarize the approaches that were explored and the reasons they were not feasible.

Download or read book Swiss Contract Law written by Nino Sievi and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2024-07-15 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Swiss contract law is among the most frequently chosen laws for commercial contracts. This practice-oriented book provides a comprehensive description of the basics of Swiss contract law with an emphasis on topics and contracts that are frequently in dispute between commercial parties. Grounded in a remedies-based approach, the analysis draws primarily on a thorough examination of the Swiss Federal Supreme Court’s case law. With numerous references to decisions of that court and informal translations of the most important parts, the issues and topics covered include the following: relationship between the Civil Code and the Code of Obligations; legal capacity to enter into a contract; required scope of the parties’ mutual expressions of intent; defects in consent; amending the content of a contract due to changed circumstances; performance of contractual obligations; concluding a contract via a third party; multiple creditors and/or debtors; breach of contract and legal remedies; termination of contracts; and specific contracts of particular commercial relevance (sales contract, contract for work, mandate agreement, settlement agreement). The remedies at the centre of the book make its details particularly accessible to foreign practitioners, notably those with a common law background. With its focus on dispute resolution, the book will equip practitioners with a confident understanding of how Swiss law regulates the creation, performance, termination, and enforcement of commercial contracts. It will prove of immeasurable value to corporate counsel and international law firms.
Download or read book The Impact of Corruption on International Commercial Contracts written by Michael Joachim Bonell and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-08-29 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents national reports describing the legal instruments that are available to prevent the payment of bribes for acquiring contracts. Anti-corruption is one of the preeminent issues in the modern global commercial order and is tackled with the help of criminal law and contract law in different ways in different countries. The reports included in this volume, from very diverse parts of the world, represent a unique and rich compilation of court decisions, doctrinal discussions and a pool of suggested solutions. The central theme is the enforceability of three problematic types of contracts: the bribe agreement, whereby a bribe payer promises the agent of his business partner a personal benefit in exchange for favourable contract terms; the agreement between a bribe payer and an intermediary (a “bribe merchant”), where the latter offers his expertise to help funnel bribes to agents of the business partner; and finally, the contract between the bribe payer and his business partner which was obtained by means of bribery. The analysis is tailored toward commercial contracts, which can also include contracts with state-owned enterprises. The examination and comparison of international and national initiatives included in this volume advance the discussion on the most appropriate remedies in corruption cases, and show how to get past the boundaries of criminal, private and contract law.

Download or read book Contract Management written by U S Government Accountability Office (G and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Federal agencies have used time-and-materials (T&M) contracts to purchase billions of dollars in services. These contracts are risky because the government bears the risk of cost overruns. Effective February 2007, the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) was revised, pursuant to a statutory change, to allow T&M contracts to be used to acquire commercial services under FAR Part 12, which uses a streamlined procurement process. Certain safeguards were included in FAR Part 12, including a requirement that contracting officers prepare a detailed determination and findings (D&F) that no other contract type is suitable. Based on a mandate to review the use of T&M contracts for commercial services, we assessed (1) agencies' reported use of such contracts and what they acquired, (2) the degree to which agencies complied with the new safeguards, and (3) the applicability of the safeguards to General Services Administration (GSA) schedule contracts. GAO reviewed contracts and orders at DOD and civilian agencies and spoke with contracting officials.

GAO reviewed contracts and orders at DOD and civilian agencies and spoke with contracting officials. GAO recommends that OFPP take steps to clarify the FAR regarding labor-hour contracts and to explicitly apply the Part 12 safeguards to the GSA schedules program, and that it provide guidance to contracting officials on the Part 12 D & F. In oral comments, OFPP agreed with our recommendations. The other six agencies in our review also concurred or had no comment.
