Moffatt, Rowena. "An appeal to principle : a theory of appeals and review of migration status decision-making in the United Kingdom." Thesis, University of Oxford, 2016. https://ora.ox.ac.uk/objects/uuid:95a2afbc-835e-4de9-84b4-2e65598bfd4b.
Full textAbstract:
The question asked by this thesis is when and why, as a matter of principle, should there be judicial scrutiny on the merits of administrative decisions on migration status ('migration status decisions') in the United Kingdom? It argues that this is a moral question, engaging concerns of fair treatment. The first two chapters examine the question theoretically. It is argued that access to justice is not a gift of citizenship and that migration status decision-making should be reviewable on the merits to avoid the appearance and/or occurrence of injustice in the light of the effects of migration control on individual migrants and the nature of migration status decision-making as 'very imperfect procedural justice' (save where a decision is not based on the judgment discretion of an administrator). The latter five chapters apply the normative claims to the United Kingdom constitutional context, including the relevant European regimes (European Convention on Fundamental Rights and European Union). First, as background to the argument, a history of recourse from migration status decision-making in the UK from the initial establishment of a review system in 1905 is sketched out. The history demonstrates the absence of a coherent or principled account of migration status appeals. The history is followed by a three-part critique of the current system of recourse in the UK. First rights of appeal in three case studies (deportation, offshore visitors and students) are examined. Secondly, the three standards of review available under judicial review (rationality, anxious scrutiny and proportionality) are critiqued, and thirdly, the contribution of European and international norms is considered. In general terms the thesis concludes that the current UK system of recourse is deficient in certain respects and suggests reform to the current appeals system.

Este trabalho discute a transcendência, requisito específico de cabimento do recurso de revista trabalhista, instituído pela Medida Provisória n.º 2226, de 05 de setembro de 2001. Quase uma década depois, essa criação legislativa não surtiu qualquer efeito prático, porque dependente de regulamentação por parte do Tribunal Superior do Trabalho (TST), o qual, todavia, depois de vários estudos, inclina-se por descartar esse critério de admissibilidade, em face da evidente dificuldade de se conceituar o que é transcendência econômica, política, social e jurídica. A celeuma envolvendo esse requisito recursal, no entanto, abriu oportunidade para se discutir um pouco o papel da Justiça do Trabalho e, particularmente, a atuação do TST, incumbido de julgar um número cada vez maior de recursos de revista, o que pode comprometer a credibilidade de sua missão. O surgimento da transcendência, portanto, instiga a revisitar as origens do próprio recurso de revista, procurando-se identificar na herança histórica romana, ibérica e lusitana, como surgiram a recorribilidade extraordinária das decisões e a jurisprudência e de que maneira isso se transferiu para o Brasil. Examinam-se, também, o processo legislativo de criação desse requisito, as experiências similares e a influência estrangeira e aborda-se a constitucionalidade da transcendência à luz da jurisprudência do Supremo Tribunal Federal, que, desde 1999, não admite o uso de medida provisória para legislar direito processual. A dificuldade de operacionalização desse pressuposto, fato declarado em entrevistas por alguns Ministros do TST e reconhecido pela última Comissão incumbida de estudá-lo, resultou na elaboração de anteprojeto de lei, alternativo à transcendência, que é revelado e comentado neste trabalho. Porque, na maioria das vezes, o direito do trabalho envolve interesses de grupos de indivíduos e de categorias profissionais e econômicas, com reflexos em todo o mercado de trabalho, a uniformidade de sua aplicação e de sua interpretação continua necessária, mas não pode restringir-se ao TST; deve, antes, ser compartilhada com os Tribunais Regionais, obrigados à unificação de sua jurisprudência interna. São urgentes alterações no sistema recursal trabalhista, com a adoção de medidas, mais simples, objetivas e práticas, em sintonia com os propósitos de celeridade, qualidade, eficácia, segurança e justiça nos julgamentos.This work discusses the principle of transcendence of appeals, a specific requirement for the admission of an appeal in a labor case instituted by the Provisional Presidential Decree no. 2226 of September 5, 2001. After almost a decade, such legislative creation has not had any practical effect because it depends on regulation by the Superior Labor Court (TST) which, however, after several studies, tends to discard such criterion of admissibility in light of the clear difficulty of defining what is economic, political, social and legal transcendent. Notwithstanding, the argumentation involving such requirement has opened the door to discussions about the role of Labor Courts and, in particular, the action of the TST that is responsible for adjudging an increasing number of appeals, which might compromise the credibility of its mission. Hence, the rising of the principle of transcendence directs us to revisit the origins of the appeal in labor cases with the purpose of identifying in the Roman, Iberian and Portuguese historical heritage the source of the extraordinary appealability of decisions and the related case law and how this was transferred to Brazil. The legislative process of creation of such requirement is also examined, as well as similar experiences and foreign influences, and the constitutionality of the principle of transcendence in light of case law of the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court, seeing that it has not admitted the use of provisional presidential decrees to legislate on procedural right since 1999. The difficult operationalization of such principle, as stated in interviews by some TST Justices and recognized by the last Commission incumbent on studying it, has resulted in the preparation of a bill alternative to the principle of transcendence that is disclosed and commented herein. Considering that Labor Law, more often than not, involves interests of groups of individuals and professional and economic categories with reflexes in the labor market as a whole, it is required be consistently applied and constructed, albeit not restricted to the TST; it should, above all, be shared with the Regional Courts, compelling them to unify their internal case law. The changes in the labor appealing system are urgent, with the adoption of simpler, more objective and practical measures in accordance with the principles of celerity, quality, effectiveness, safety and justice in judgments.

This paper has as main scope to identify and establish the consequences arising from the delayed analysis of the necessary requirements for acceptance of the reviews appeals that were discontinued by the Regional Labor Court, proceeding that will take place only after the appeal that represents the dispute is judged by the Superior Labor Court, in accordance with the Law No. 13,015, of July 21, 2014, which included the Article 896-C in the Brazilian Labor Code, regulated by the Act No. 491/SEGJUD.GP of September 23, 2014, deep diving into the possibility of applying a predominant thesis or Court Precedent to the discontinued appeals or without the proper observance of the legal requirements established in the legal model. Therefore, it firstly presents the main relevant characteristics of the res judicata and the cases in which there is irradiation effects with their flexibility, followed by the analysis of the judgment of the repeated appeal to determine, with proportionality, weighing the constitutional principles of legal security and isonomy, in thesis, colliding with the proposed analysis. The considerations presented are anchored in doctrine, as well as recent and controversial understanding of Regional Labor Courts and Superior Labor Court on the subject. By last, the conclusions are intended to systematize those cases where even not admitting an appeal, should be overcome formal obstacle, perhaps the immutability arising from the final judgment, so that the stir receives similar solution as established by the Superior Labor Court
O presente trabalho tem como escopo precípuo identificar e estabelecer os reflexos decorrentes da análise diferida de admissibilidade dos recursos de revista sobrestados nos Tribunais Regionais de origem, procedida somente depois do julgamento do recurso de revista representativo da controvérsia perante o Tribunal Superior do Trabalho, na forma prevista pela Lei nº13.015, de 21 de julho de 2014, que incluiu o artigo 896-C, da CLT, regulado pelo Ato nº491/SEGJUD.GP, de 23 de setembro de 2014, afunilando a possibilidade de aplicação da tese prevalecente ou súmula de jurisprudência aos recursos inadmissíveis ou sem a observância de pressuposto recursal estabelecido pelo modelo legal. Para tanto, apresentam-se inicialmente as características relevantes da coisa julgada e as hipóteses em que há irradiação de seus efeitos, seguindo-se à análise do regime de julgamento de recurso de revista repetitivo para fixar, então, com fulcro na proporcionalidade, a ponderação entre os princípios constitucionais da segurança jurídica e da isonomia, em tese, colidentes na análise proposta. As considerações apresentadas ancoram-se na doutrina e no entendimento recente e ainda controvertido dos Tribunais Regionais e Superiores acerca da matéria. Por derradeiro, as conclusões pretendem sistematizar aqueles casos em que mesmo não admitido o recurso de revista, deverá ser superado o empecilho formal, quiçá a imutabilidade advinda da autoridade imanente do trânsito em julgado, a fim de que a demanda receba solução idêntica àquela estabelecida pelo Tribunal Superior do Trabalho

Previous issue date: 2016-03-03Traditionally, the Law can be seen as a group of norms of conduct created by the infraconstitutional legislature which contain, in their text, in a reasonably clear manner, the identifying elements of the conditions in which they should apply. However, in the past few years, a new form of Law has arisen in Brazil. Contrary to traditional Law, this Law comes straight from the Federal Constitution. The fundamental rights established in the Federal Constitution became a direct source of subjective rights. The currently prevailing thesis states that they should apply directly not only in matters involving the public administration, but also in private relations. The idea of programmatic constitutional norms has lost considerable force. A new constitutional hermeneutic has formed around the interpretation of the fundamental rights. However, the labor law appellate procedure, specifically the Appeal for Review, is not well suited to this new type of right, one that demands a new kind of interpretation. Our proposal seeks to give the art. 896 of the CLT an interpretation in accordance with the Constitution, to achieve greater coherence with this new form of Law and a jurisdiction that promotes the optimization of fundamental rights
Tradicionalmente, o direito pode ser entendido como um conjunto de normas de conduta que são produzidas pelo legislador infraconstitucional e trazem, no seu texto, de forma razoavelmente clara, os elementos identificadores do suporte fático necessário à sua incidência. Contudo, nos últimos anos, um novo direito surgiu no Brasil. Ao contrário do direito tradicional, esse direito advém diretamente da Constituição Federal. Os direitos fundamentais dispostos na Constituição Federal tornaram-se fonte direta de direitos subjetivos. Tem prevalecida a tese de que eles devem ser aplicados diretamente não somente em relação aos órgãos público, mas também nas relações privadas. A ideia de normas constitucionais programáticas perdeu considerável força. Uma nova hermenêutica constitucional se formou em torno da interpretação dos direitos fundamentais. Contudo, o sistema recursal trabalhista, especificamente o Recurso de Revista, não está adequado para atender esse novo tipo de direito, que demanda um outro tipo de interpretação. Nossa proposta visa dar ao art. 896 da CLT uma interpretação conforme a Constituição, visando garantir maior coerência com esse novo direito e uma jurisdição que promova a otimização dos direitos fundamentais

It is the aim with this paper, to research the shortcomings experienced in the appeal procedures as contained in the Engineering Profession Act ("EPA"), in order to determine whether the process should be revised or if only certain relevant sections of the EPA should be rewritten. Due to the administrative nature of certain duties of the Council as authorised by the EPA, it makes it inevitable that appeals will follow. It is therefore imperative that the procedures to appeal, must be both functional and effective.
The relevant sections of the EPA as well as the appeal procedures of the Health Professions Act's will be researched, taking into account the stipulations of the Constitution and the Promotion of Administrative Justice Act ("PAJA"). Relevant legal administrative principles and doctrines, court judgments, as well as the views of authors are also taken into account.
Two major areas of concern in certain sections of the EPA have been identified:
• The fact that the whole council has to decide on appeals, and
• the fact that such hearings have to take place within a very limited time frame.
Relevant court findings have made it clear that decisions made by authorities, have to comply with the requirements set out in the Constitution in coherence with PAJA.
In conclusion, based on the Constitutional and the legal administrative requirements, it is found to be necessary to rewrite the relevant sections of the EPA, as well as the rules of appeal, as these do not make the grade at present.Thesis (LL.M.

O processo civil brasileiro tem sido objeto de diversas reformas, baseadas em teses doutrinárias, no intuito de aumentar a celeridade processual. Essas reformas acabaram por dar origem a contradições e inconsistências no sistema do Código de Processo Civil de 1973, criando novos problemas e aumentando a litigância em torno de questões processuais. Um novo Código de Processo Civil está sendo elaborado, reorganizando o sistema processual civil, modificando a recorribilidade das decisões intercalares e adotando algumas práticas do direito anglo-americano. Uma análise de direito comparado envolvendo as normas processuais adotadas no direito medieval português, na Justiça do Trabalho, nas cortes federais dos Estados Unidos e nas cortes estaduais de Nova Iorque sugere que algumas das modificações propostas podem não ser efetivas para obtenção de celeridade processual. Além disso, uma análise empírica de decisões do Tribunal de Justiça de São Paulo demonstra que 44,33% das decisões intercalares recorridas são anuladas ou modificadas, sugerindo ainda ser importante a supervisão do juízo de segundo grau sobre este tipo de decisão. Os dados também demonstraram que apenas 22,27% dos agravos de instrumento implicam em alguma suspensão do processo, indicando que este recurso não é uma causa significativa de atraso no processo em primeiro grau. Conclui-se que, na realidade, algumas das inovações propostas para o novo Código de Processo Civil podem não ser a maneira mais eficiente de lidar com os problemas atuais do direito processualBrazilian Civil Procedural Law has been subject to several statutory reforms based on legal theories in order to reduce judicial proceedings length of time. These reforms had produced contradictions and inconsistencies in the Civil Procedure Code introduced in 1973, creating new problems and increasing litigation on procedural matters. A new code is being drafted reorganizing the civil procedure system, redesigning appellate review on interlocutory orders and adopting some practices from common law. Comparative analysis involving procedures adopted by Portuguese medieval Civil Courts, Brazilian Labor Courts, U.S. Federal Courts and New York State Courts suggest that some of the proposed modifications on appellate review may be not effective to reduce procedural length. Moreover, empirical analysis of decisions from São Paulo Court of Appeals demonstrates a reversal or modification rate of 44,33% on appealed interlocutory orders, which suggest the second instance supervisory role over these orders is still important. The empirical data also shows a stay of proceedings rate of only 22,27% while interlocutory appeals are being decided, suggesting it is not a major cause for procedural delay. In fact, comparative and empirical analysis indicates that some statutory innovations to be introduced by the new Civil Procedure Code may be not the most efficient way to cope with the actual Brazilian Procedural Law problems

The review appeal to the Superior Labor Court – TST, to have their actually tried merit, needs to be known. As it is an extraordinary instance it was created prerequisites for this knowledge. To review appeal apply generic appellate assumptions, belonging to all resources, and the more specific the measure appropriateness. As generics are: collapsing, representation, preparation and timing. Specific assumptions have the jurisprudential harvest, normative, legalistic and constitutional, provided for in art. 896 of the Labor Code. So it remains therefore direct the course of this work, for specific assumptions (= art. 896 of the Labor Code) of admissibility of review appeal. Or more simply, the cases of "appropriateness" of this resource in order to be able to assess how much there is of influence on the analysis of requirements for labor courts, especially the TST, to ensure the protection and effectiveness of the fundamental right called " reasonable length of proceedings "(art. 5, LXXVIII, of the Federal Constitution)
O recurso de revista para o Tribunal Superior do Trabalho – TST, para ter seu mérito efetivamente julgado, precisa ser conhecido. Como se trata de uma instância extraordinária foram criados pré-requisitos para esse conhecimento. Ao recurso de revista se aplicam os pressupostos recursais genéricos, pertencentes a todos os recursos, e mais os específicos de cabimento da medida. Como genéricos tem-se: Sucumbência, representação, preparo e tempestividade. Como pressupostos específicos tem-se os de seara jurisprudencial, normativa, legalista e constitucional, previstos no art. 896 da CLT. Sendo assim, restará, portanto, dirigir o rumo deste trabalho, para os pressupostos específicos (= art. 896 da CLT) de admissibilidade do recurso de revista. Ou mais simplesmente, os casos de “cabimento” desse recurso, a fim de que se possa avaliar o quanto há de influência na análise desses requisitos pelos tribunais trabalhistas, em especial o TST, para garantir a tutela e a efetividade do direito fundamental chamado “razoável duração do processo” (art. 5º, LXXVIII, da Constituição Federal)

O presente estudo aborda a Administração Pública em juízo no Estado Democrático de Direito. Para tanto, analisa o Estado de Direito em suas três fases: Liberal, Social e Democrática. Aponta qual Poder orgânico prevaleceu em cada um dos períodos sendo no Liberal, o Poder Legislativo, no Social, o Executivo, e, no Democrático, o Judiciário. Nesta última fase, além do Poder Judiciário outro elemento é determinante para sua caracterização: a Constituição, e sua força normativa. Juntamente ao aumento de poderes, a jurisdição passa a ter mais responsabilidades, uma vez que surge como concretizadora de direitos. A obrigação de fundamentar exaustivamente as decisões é uma delas, assim como é, também, a legitimadora de sua atuação. Além da figura do Estado de Direito, busca-se uma contextualização nacional da Administração Pública, desde seu início Patrimonialista, passando pelo seu período Burocrático, até chegar-se ao Gerencial, com a inserção do princípio da eficiência ao caput do artigo 37, da Constituição Federal, em 1998. A conjugação do Estado Democrático de Direito à Administração Pública Gerencial, resulta numa nova perspectiva de Administração, surtindo reflexos diretos na sua atuação em juízo, feita pela Advocacia Pública. Esta, por sua vez, como representante do Estado, e não do Governo, exerce função essencial à justiça, defendendo, sempre, o interesse público primário. Com a Advocacia Pública devidamente estruturada, independente e autônoma, submetida a normas constitucionais, juridicidade e eficiência, alguns instrumentos processuais civis podem passar a ser objeto de reflexão, como o reexame necessário e o recurso, neste último caso, a (des)necessidade de sua interposição obrigatória.
This review studies the Public Administration in court in a Democratic State-of-Law. Therefore, it seeks to analyze the rule of law in three stages: Liberal, Social and Democratic. It aims the primacy of each organic power during each stage: Liberal, Legislative; Social, Executive (Government); Democratic, Judiciary (Justice). The last stage, over the Judiciary role, is defined by the Constitution and it?s normative power. Along with its increasing power, the jurisdiction starts to have more responsibilities, since arises as a Right?s realizer. The obbligation of fully justify decisions is one of them that is, also, a way of legitimate its actions. Besides the Rule-of-Law State, this study also seeks to nationally contextualize the Public administration, since its patrmionialistic inception, through the bureaucratic period, until arrives at the Management model, with the insertion of the efficiency principle (Federal Constitution, art. 37, head). The Democratic State-of-Law, together with the Management model of Public administration results in a new Public administration, directly reflecting on its acts when in Court, through the Public Lawyers. They, in turn, as delegates of the State, and not de Government, play an essential role to Justice, always defending the primary public interest. With a properly structured Public Advocacy, independent and autonomous, subdued to constitutional norms, juridicity and efficiency, some instruments of civil process may be object of reflection, like the necessary review and the (un)necessity of an mandatory appeal.

Thomas, Jerry D. "LAW AND IDEOLOGY IN THE U.S. COURTS OF APPEALS JUDICIAL REVIEW OF FEDERAL AGENCY DECISIONS." UKnowledge, 2010. http://uknowledge.uky.edu/gradschool_diss/115.
Full textAbstract:
The attitudinal model of judicial behavior dominates judicial politics scholarship, including studies of federal courts and agencies. Extant research finds limited support for legal constraints as determinants of judge behavior when agency decisions are under review. Attitudinal scholars suggest judges substitute their policy preferences in place of agency preferences. Contrarily, the legal model suggests judges defer to agencies because of procedures and doctrine rooted in the rule of law.
This study tests hypotheses predicting whether federal agency review decisions in the U.S. Courts of Appeals during 1982-2002 are a function of judges‘ attitudes, namely ideology, or a function of legal constraints, including agency adherence to legally prescribed procedures and agency passing standard-of-review muster. Using logistic regression, I examine the impact of legal and ideological variables on the outcome of judges‘ reviews of agency decisions.
Results support several hypotheses. Agency adherence to procedural standards, such as those outlined in the Administrative Procedures Act, increases the likelihood that a review panel will defer to the agency. If review panels and judges answer standard-of-review questions favorably toward agencies, review panels and judges are more likely to support agencies in final case outcomes. Individual judge votes to support agencies are influenced by the ideology of other judges on the review panel: if the ideology of the review panel is in agreement with the agency position, individual judges are more likely to support agencies in final case outcomes. Finally, a judge is more likely to dissent when he/she is in ideological (dis)agreement with the agency position.
In sum, results suggest that judges‘ regard for law and regard for their judge colleagues informs decisionmaking. Judges often defer to federal administrative agencies, even when their personal policy preferences are not found to be significantly associated with decisions. Judges‘ ideological preferences appear to be less important in the U.S. Courts of Appeals than previous scholarship indicates, but ideology may influence judges‘ decisions through the ideological composition of the review panel and in dissent behavior. The implication is that the legal model of judicial behavior may be more prominent than the attitudinal model in the U.S. Courts of Appeals.

Full textAbstract:
El texto completo de este trabajo no está disponible en el Repositorio Académico UPC por restricciones de la casa editorial donde ha sido publicado.Background: Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in the pancreatic cystic fluid is the most important biomarker for differentiating mucinous from non-mucinous pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs). However, recent studies have shown that glucose levels in pancreatic cystic fluid can discriminate mucinous from non-mucinous cysts. Aims: To perform a meta-analysis to determine the utility of intracystic fluid glucose of pancreatic mucinous cysts compared with intracystic CEA. Methods: We conducted a systematic review of the literature in the PubMed, OVID Medline, and Cochrane databases. This meta-analysis considers studies published up to October 2020. Results: Six studies comprising 506 patients were selected; 61.2% of the population was female. Of the 480 PCLs, 287 (59.7%) were mucinous. Pooled sensitivity and specificity of cystic fluid glucose levels for mucinous PCLs were 91% and 85%, respectively. The positive likelihood ratio (PLR) and negative likelihood ratio (NLR) were 6.33 and 0.11, respectively. Pooled diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) was 60.94. The pooled area under the summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curve was 0.959. Pooled sensitivity and specificity of pancreatic cystic fluid CEA levels were 61% and 93%. The PLR and NLR were 8.51 and 0.40, respectively. Pooled DOR was 23.52, and the pooled area under the SROC curve was 0.861. Conclusion: Glucose has become a useful method and appears to be better than CEA for differentiating between mucinous PCLs and non-mucinous PCLs. We suggest that the analysis of glucose in PCLs be routinely performed for the differential diagnosis of these lesions.

Full textAbstract:
La distinction du fait et du droit est une problématique centrale dansl’organisation des voies de droit. Elle exerce en effet, au-delà d’une variété de formes et designifications, une influence décisive sur l’office du juge ainsi que sur la fonction desautorités soumises à son contrôle. Pour appréhender pleinement la portée qu’elle revêt dansl’équilibre des pouvoirs établi par la Cour de justice de l’Union européenne, il est nécessairede se défaire de toute préconception de la distinction du fait et du droit (notamment auregard des pratiques observées en droit interne), afin de comprendre comment le juge del’Union européenne exerce un pouvoir de détermination à son égard, que ce soit dans lecontrôle de validité des actes juridiques ou dans les voies de recours dirigées contre desactes juridictionnels. Dans cette opération, elle reste toutefois soucieuse d’assurerl’acceptabilité de ses décisions, et prend donc en considération certaines contraintesjuridiques qui se présentent à elle dans son office. Autorité normatrice et ordonnatrice, laCour de justice en tant qu’interprète authentique utilise en réalité la distinction du fait et dudroit comme un instrument de répartition des compétences entre les différents acteursconcernés par la réalisation du droit de l’Union européenne. Elle définit ainsi, à travers ladétermination de la distinction du fait et du droit dans chacune de ses manifestations,l’habilitation que leur confère le système juridique. En ce sens, elle apparaît comme lajuridiction suprême de cet espace normatifThe distinction between fact and law is central to the organization of remedies.It exerts, through its variety of forms and meanings, a decisive influence on the Court and onthe function of the authorities that the former reviews. In order to fully grasp its significance inthe balance of power that the European Court of Justice has established, one has to discardany preconception related to the distinction between fact and law (especially those present inmunicipal law). This in turn leads to the understanding of the manner in which the EuropeanCourt specifies the distinction, should it concern the review against legal acts or the ways ofchallenging case law. Whilst doing this, the European Court remains wary of the acceptabilityof its decisions, thus taking into account several legal constraints. As a normative authorityand as the authentic interpreter, the European Court of Justice uses the distinction betweenfact and law as a way to divide the competences of the actors concerned with theimplementation of EU law.

Full textAbstract:
A review of litigation and appeals over timber sales on the Lolo National Forest for the years 1999 thru 2008 revealed that of the 157 timber sales that could have been appealed or litigated, 27%, representing 55% of the timber volume in all the reviewed sales, had some form of appeal or litigation.. The categories of timber sales with the highest percentage of appeals and/or litigation in relation to their representation within the population as a whole were those that were performed to improve forest health or to meet stewardship goals. The silvicultural prescription that had the highest percentage of appeals and/or litigation in relation to their representation within the population as a whole were thin from above prescriptions while the least frequent was a clear cut. This study intends to serve as a source of information about appeals and litigation on the Lolo National Forest over timber sales by discussing reasons why environmental groups litigate and appeal timber sales. Additionally, this study hopes to give individuals, the Forest Service, private interest groups, or citizen groups involved with attempting to decrease the number of timber sales appealed or litigated as well as the volume of wood appealed or litigated, a point of comparison to evaluate the effectiveness of their efforts.

Mantzari, D. "Appeals from utilities regulators in the US and the UK : what are the limits of judicial review of economic evidence?" Thesis, University College London (University of London), 2014. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/1426551/.
Full textAbstract:
The thesis examines the transformation of judicial review in the context of appeals from utilities regulators in the US and the UK, following the regulators’ greater recourse to expert economic evidence and analysis. It describes what is happening and also prescribes what should be happening in judicial review of economic evidence. It shows that the recourse to economic evidence has by and large transformed the scope, process and intensity of review of regulatory decisions in both jurisdictions. The by-product of this transformation is the gradual rise of a complementary relationship between the judge and the regulatory agency in the realm of utilities regulation. Rather than a state of institutional conflict between the two actors in the realms of law and policy (US) or a state of blanket deference (UK), one can observe a measure of judicial restraint predicated upon considerations of relative institutional competence. The normative claim of the thesis is that questions related to the appropriate scope of review of regulatory decisions or to the optimal institutional response to the pervasiveness of economic evidence should not be inattentive to the limits of judicial review of economic evidence. Following the examination of judicial scrutiny of economic evidence in generalist courts (US federal courts, the UK High Court) and specialist courts (UK Competition Appeal Tribunal), the study shows that those limits do not simply derive from the incapacity of the judge to deal with the appraisal of economic evidence but are owing to a host of micro-level (i.e. standard of review, and status of the reviewing court/tribunal) and macro-level institutional factors (i.e. the institutional design of the regulatory regime). The thesis concludes that any expectations that judicial review can ensure the soundness of the regulatory agencies’ decisions need to become aligned with those institutional factors as well as with the institutional capacity of judicial review to satisfy those expectations.

Full textAbstract:
Syftet med denna studie har varit att granska rättssäkerheten i tillämpningen av mål om ekonomiskt bistånd enligt 4 kap. 1 § Socialtjänstlagen i förvaltningsdomstolarna, med fokus på Förvaltningsrätten i Stockholm. Studien visar att överklagandefrekvensen har ökat under åren 2013–2018 i alla förvaltningsrätter och att ändringsfrekvensen var 11 procent. Väldigt få mål fick prövningstillstånd i kammarrätterna och i Högsta förvaltningsdomstolen och under en procent av målen fick bifall.Till Förvaltningsrätten i Stockholm överklagades drygt två procent av socialtjänstens avslagsbeslut om ekonomiskt bistånd, vilket kan jämföras med andelen överklaganden av socialförsäkringsmål som var 43 procent. Av besluten som överklagades fick tre procent av de klagande bifall. En närmare granskning av 100 domar från Förvaltningsrätten i Stockholm år 2018 visade att störst chans att få bifall har de mål som handlar om vad som är ett behov enligt Socialtjänstlagen. De mål som rör att den klagande själv anses kunna tillgodose behovet eller inte anses medverka i utredningen hade minst chans att få bifall. Förekomst av bevis samvarierade med bifall för båda parter. Vilka de klagande är eller om barn finns i hushållet påverkade inte utfallet och barns behov belystes inte alls. Vilken enhet och domare hos Förvaltningsrätten som dömt i målet samvarierade också med utfallet.Analysen utifrån rättssäkerhet visar att den ur ett formellt perspektiv är hög. De flesta fick avslag och besluten var därmed förutsebara. Rättssäkerheten minskade dock genom utfallets samvariation med vilken enhet och domare som dömt. Ur ett materiellt perspektiv på rättssäkerhet innebar 71 procent av avslagen att den enskilde inte tillförsäkrades en skälig levnadsnivå. Krav ställdes på den klagande som gjorde att bedömningen kom att handla om vad den klagande kunde ha gjort för att tillgodose behovet själv, inte huruvida denne faktiskt kunde det. Detta tillsammans med att högre beviskrav eventuellt ställdes i dessa mål gör att rättssäkerheten ur ett materiellt perspektiv kan ifrågasättas.

Sild, Nicolas. "Le Gallicanisme et la construction de l'Etat (1563-1905)." Thesis, Paris 2, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015PA020039.
Full textAbstract:
"L’Eglise s’est toujours considérée comme un ordre infra-étatique (l’Eglise dans l’Etat avec ses paroisses et ses diocèses), tout en obéissant aux règles posées par une autorité étrangère à l’Etat, la papauté. De ce fait, l’Eglise est un ordre juridique concurrençant l’Etat, car elle exerce une domination sur le même territoire et les mêmes sujets. Le Gallicanisme se présente comme la synthèse permettant de régler juridiquement ces conflits. Il prône l’indépendance de l’Eglise de France et de l’Etat face à la papauté et suppose l’intervention du Souverain dans les affaires ecclésiastiques. Deux mécanismes juridiques essentiels servent à remplir ces fonctions. D’une part, au moyen des techniques assurant la réception des règles ecclésiastiques dans l’Etat, le Gallicanisme produit un discours technicien ancré dans une doctrine de la souveraineté, pour préserver l’existence d’une « exception française » menacée par les prétentions hégémoniques romaines. D’autre part, inventée pour résoudre les conflits de compétence opposant les autorités étatiques et ecclésiales, la procédure de l’appel comme d’abus subordonne l’Eglise de France à l’Etat par le contrôle juridictionnel de ses actes. Elle désigne l’Etat comme l’instance titulaire d’un pouvoir exclusif de déterminer l’étendue de sa propre compétence et de celle de l’ordre ecclésial. Envisagé sous l’angle des rapports entre ordres juridiques, le Gallicanisme apparaît alors comme une étape incontournable dans la construction intellectuelle de l’Etat moderne, à laquelle il fournit des supports théoriques et techniques"By the properties that characterize it, Catholic Church is often considered, following the example of the State, as a legal system which takes place inside and outside State. Before the 1905 Act, Gallicanism struggles for independance of the Church of France and the State against papacy, encouraging Sovereign’s interventions in ecclesiastical affairs. Gallicanism can be translated in terms of relations between two legal systems, and the matter of this study is to prove this movement has been a momentum in the intellectual building of Modern State through the reflexion of french jurist from the Ancient Monarchy to the end of the 19th century. Church and State are, by many ways, concurrent systems aiming to dominate the same territory and the same subjects. Gallican thoughts present themselves like an answer to these conflicts. Canonical rules promulgated by the Pope or a Council are not self-executing, and have to be approved by the Sovereign to be Law of the State. Gallicanism build a technical discurse based on State sovereignty to preserve a french particularism against the Roman hegemonic threath. Invented to resolve conflicts of competences between ecclesiastical and State’s authorities, the procedure named « appel comme d’abus » gives exclusive power to the State to determine the extent of its competence. Furthermore this procedure subordinates Church of France to State by the judicial review of its administrative acts

Full textAbstract:
Malgré le peu de fondements écrits consacrés à la justice dans le texte de la Constitution du 4 octobre 1958, le Conseil constitutionnel, en réalisant un travail d’actualisation à partir de la Déclaration des droits de l’homme et du citoyen, a permis l’émergence d’un droit constitutionnel processuel, construit autour de principes directeurs. Ceux-ci peuvent être répartis dans trois catégories : deux principales, selon que l’acteur du procès prioritairement concerné soit le juge ou les parties et une troisième, complémentaire, celle des garanties procédurales, permettant de favoriser les qualités essentielles du juge et de contrôler le respect des droits des parties. Une gradation des exigences du Conseil constitutionnel est discrètement perceptible entre les deux premières catégories de principes, plus facilement identifiable entre celles-ci et la dernière famille. Cette échelle décroissante de « densité » des principes directeurs du procès témoigne d’une véritable politique jurisprudentielle en matière de droit constitutionnel processuel, qui met l’accent sur l’accès au juge, doté des qualités indispensables à l’accomplissement de sa mission juridictionnelle. Toutefois, aussi satisfaisante que soit l’action du juge constitutionnel français à l’égard du droit du procès, celle-ci nécessiterait aujourd’hui le relais du constituant, afin de moderniser le statut constitutionnel de la justiceIn spite of a relatively low number of written dispositions dedicated to justice inside of the body of the Constitution of October 1958 4th, the constitutional Council, while updating this text through the Declaration of Human Rights, contributed to the development of a procedural constitutional law, which is structured around guiding principles. Those principles can be classified within three different categories : two major categories depend on the trial actor that is primarily concerned, either the judge or the parties; a third and additional category pertaining to procedural protections, fosters the essential qualities of the judge and secure the protection of the parties’ rights. A gradation of the requirements of the constitutional Council is discreetly perceptible between the first two categories of principles, and more easily identifiable between those first two categories and the last one. This decreasing scale of “density” yoked to the trial guiding principles highlights a genuine judicial policy when it comes to procedural constitutional law, emphasizing access to the judge, whom is given essential qualities in order to achieve its judicial duty. However, the action of the French constitutional judge, as satisfactory as it is towards the rights of the trial, would easily support the intervention of the constituent power in order to update Justice’s constitutional status

Full textAbstract:
A pesquisa teve a finalidade de examinar o pressuposto de admissibilidade da repercussão geral inserido pela Emenda Constitucional 45/2004 e regulado pela Lei n. 11.418/06 e suas implicações nos futuros recursos extraordinários em matéria ambiental. A metodologia utilizada centrou-se na pesquisa doutrinária, legislativa e jurisprudencial. Com a análise do pressuposto da repercussão geral e de sua configuração nas hipóteses de transcendência (econômica, política, social e jurídica) em cotejo com o direito fundamental ao meio ambiente sadio e equilibrado, constatou-se a necessidade de que tal requisito não seja apenas mais um instrumento de filtragem recursal, mas sim um elemento de efetividade dos recursos extraordinários que versem sobre questões ambientais constitucionais, ante a mudança de um paradigma subjetivo para outro de características objetivas. Para tanto, defendeu-se uma alternativa menos formalista (quanto ao momento da análise do preenchimento do pressuposto); a presunção de repercussão geral nas ações civis públicas e nas ações populares; a ampla participação da figura do amicus curiae ainda na fase prévia; e o rompimento do dogma da impossibilidade do reexame dos fatos, possibilitando uma hermenêutica voltada para a proteção ambiental, servindo-se nesse último caso das legislações que tratam do processo do controle concentrado de constitucionalidade e da arguição de descumprimento de preceito fundamental.Submitted by Marcelo Teixeira (mvteixeira@ucs.br) on 2014-06-05T16:32:08Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Marcio Frezza Sgarioni.pdf: 1217937 bytes, checksum: ebc5721ddbcaa6aef9c4be7eab48c86a (MD5)

The research aimed to examine the impact of juridical general repercussion as a requirement of admissibility, inserted by Constitutional Amendment 45/2004 and regulated by Law No 11.418/06, as its implications for future judicial extraordinary appeals based on the environmental resources. The methodology adopted was the research on the available data basis of doctrine, legislation and court decisions. Analyzing the juridical general repercussion as a requirement of admissibility, and its configuration within the transcendence hypothesis (economics, political, social and juridical) in comparison to the fundamental right to a healthy and balanced environment, it was realized that the requirement is not just a tool for a judicial filtering of the extraordinary appeals, but also is an element of effectiveness for the extraordinary appeals that deals with the constitucional environmental issues, in face of the subjective paradigm shift towards to another one, with more objective characteristics. With this goal, a less formal alternative was presented (related to the timing of the requirement analisys), wich is the presumption of the juridical general repercussion in the public civil and popular law suits; a more active participation of the amicus curiae even in the preliminaries stages; and the disruption of the impossibility of the review of the facts dogma, to allow a hermeneutics more focused on the environmental protection, using, to do so, the laws that address to the concentrated control of constitutionality as the laws that invoke the breach of the fundamental precept.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis sets out to provide a deep analysis of the mechanisms for review of convictions in New Zealand and England after initial appeal rights are exhausted, and to identify the key areas of similarity and difference between these systems, the reasons for these differences, and their implications. The appeal systems in each jurisdiction are briefly examined, alongside the pressures and restrictions on their functioning. Particular attention is paid to the options for appeal out of time, and for revisiting appeal decisions if new material comes to light. The main discussion is of the specialist procedures for review of suspect convictions in each jurisdiction: the Royal Prerogative of Mercy process carried out by the New Zealand Ministry of Justice and the work of the English Criminal Cases Review Commission. This discussion presents the results of empirical research carried out by the author utilising the files of each of these bodies. It investigates the legal context in which each body functions, and provides an account of how each body functions in practice, by examining the circumstances in which each body will contemplate referring a matter back to an appeal court and the means by which a determination is made as to whether to do so in an individual case. In addition it examines the various factors (legal and non-legal) which impact on their work. Finally, the key features of the two systems are contrasted, with a discussion of the areas of similarity and difference, as well as the possible implications of these, in particular for reform of the New Zealand processes.

"Procedural Formalities in terms of the Competition Act 89 of 1998 The Woodlands Omnia Debate : a critical review of the Supreme Court of Appeal's approach to complaint initiation and referral in Competition law enforcement." Diss., University of Pretoria, 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/2263/53136.
Full textAbstract:
The overarching purpose of this study is to utilise different factors, such as South Africa s controversial history and the development of competition law policy in light thereof, the effect of democracy and the Constitution on competition enforcement and the legislature s intention codified in the provisions of the Competition Act, in an attempt to explain the judiciary s recent approach to competition law enforcement by the Competition Commission and Competition Tribunal.
South African competition law develops largely through case law and as such, the decisions of the Tribunal, coupled with their review by the Competition Appeal Court, the Supreme Court of Appeal and ultimately the Constitutional Court, will ultimately inform how competition law is regulated going forward. This means that tremendous value is being placed on these judgments and it is therefore of critical importance that the correct approaches are followed when they are being decided.
Focussing on the initiation of complaints as the first step in the process of complaint proceedings, the relevant regulatory institutions and the nature and scope of their powers, as well as current procedures and laws involved in regulating complaint initiation and referral, an attempt is made shed some much needed light on recent, fairly controversial, jurisprudence by our courts pertaining to the enforcement of competition law in South Africa.
The Woodlands and Omnia cases forms the basis of this enquiry, hence a closer look is taken at how these disputes came about and eventually found their way to the Supreme Court of Appeal (the SCA ). The focus in both instances is primarily on the initiating complaint, its referral to the Tribunal for adjudication, the appeal to the Competition Appeal Court (the CAC ) and the final appeal to the SCA.
Proceeding from the premise that for the sake of effective competition law enforcement and uniform policy development a purposive interpretation to the nature and powers of the Commission and Tribunal is desirable, it is submitted that formal procedure still plays a vital role in achieving coherent results. The extent of formality required however, must be softened in order to achieve the Act s objectives of creating free and fair markets, consumer welfare and promoting greater ownership and employment to address the economic injustices of the past.
Following the SCA s decision in Omnia, some in the legal fraternity has viewed the SCA s judgment as a relaxation of the referral rule which brings the rule in line with a more purposive interpretation of the provisions of the Act. Others have commented that the Omnia judgment appears to reflect a reversion by the SCA towards both the handling and interpretation of initiation and complaint proceedings in terms of section 49B of the Act. In light of the findings in the Senwes judgment however, an argument is made that the former, more cautious view is the more favourable.Mini Dissertation (LLM)--University of Pretoria, 2015.

Full textAbstract:
La première partie de l’étude est consacrée à l’invocation, intra et extra muros, du droit à un procès équitable. Sont analysés ainsi, dans un premier temps, l’applicabilité directe de l’article 6 et la subsidiarité de la Convention par rapport au droit national et de la Cour Européenne des Droits de l’Homme par rapport aux juridictions nationales. Le droit à un procès équitable étant un droit jurisprudentiel, l’étude se focalise, dans un second temps, sur l’invocabilité des arrêts de la Cour Européenne et plus précisément sur l’invocabilité directe de l’arrêt qui constate une violation du droit à un procès équitable dans une affaire mettant en cause l’Etat et l’invocabilité de l’interprétation conforme à l’arrêt qui interprète l’article 6 dans une affaire mettant en cause un Etat tiers. L’introduction dans l’ordre juridique français et hellénique de la possibilité de réexamen de la décision pénale définitive rendue en violation de la Convention a fait naitre un nouveau droit d’accès à la Cour de cassation lequel trouve son terrain de prédilection aux violations de l’article 6 et constitue peut-être le pas le plus important pour le respect du droit à un procès équitable après l’acceptation (par la France et la Grèce) du droit de recours individuel. Quant au faible fondement de l’autorité de la chose interprétée par la Cour Européenne, qui est d’ailleurs un concept d’origine communautaire, cela explique pourquoi un dialogue indirect entre la Cour Européenne et la Cour de cassation est possible sans pour autant changer en rien l’invocabilité de l’interprétation conforme et le fait que l’existence d’un précédent oblige la Cour de cassation à motiver l’interprétation divergente qu’elle a adoptée.La seconde partie de l’étude, qui est plus volumineuse, est consacrée aux garanties de bonne administration de la justice (article 6§1), à la présomption d’innocence (article 6§2), aux droits qui trouvent leur fondement conventionnel dans l’article 6§1 mais leur fondement logique dans la présomption d’innocence et aux droits de la défense (article 6§3). Sont ainsi analysés le droit à un tribunal indépendant, impartial et établi par la loi, le délai raisonnable, le principe de l’égalité des armes, le droit à une procédure contradictoire, le droit de la défense d’avoir la parole en dernier, la publicité de l’audience et du prononcé des jugements et arrêts, l’obligation de motivation des décisions, la présomption d’innocence, dans sa dimension procédurale et personnelle, le « droit au mensonge », le droit de l’accusé de se taire et de ne pas contribuer à son auto-incrimination, son droit d’être informé de la nature et de la cause de l’accusation et de la requalification envisagée des faits, son droit au temps et aux facilités nécessaires à la préparation de la défense, y compris notamment la confidentialité de ses communications avec son avocat et le droit d’accès au dossier, son droit de comparaître en personne au procès, le droit de la défense avec ou sans l’assistance d’un avocat, le droit de l’accusé d’être représenté en son absence par son avocat, le droit à l’assistance gratuite d’un avocat lorsque la situation économique de l’accusé ne permet pas le recours à l’assistance d’un avocat mais les intérêts de la justice l’exigent, le droit d’interroger ou faire interroger les témoins à charge et d’obtenir la convocation et l’interrogation des témoins à décharge dans les mêmes conditions que les témoins à charge et le droit à l’interprétation et à la traduction des pièces essentielles du dossier. L’analyse est basée sur la jurisprudence strasbourgeoise et centrée sur la position qu’adoptent la Cour de cassation française et l’AréopageThe first party of the study is dedicated to the invocation of the right to a fair trial intra and extra muros and, on this basis, it focuses on the direct applicability of Article 6 and the subsidiarity of the Convention and of the European Court of Human Rights. Because of the fact that the right to a fair trial is a ‘‘judge-made law’’, the study also focuses on the invocability of the judgments of the European Court and more precisely on the direct invocability of the European Court’s judgment finding that there has been a violation of the Convention and on the request for an interpretation in accordance with the European Court’s decisions. The possibility of reviewing the criminal judgment made in violation of the Convention has generated a new right of access to the Court of cassation which particularly concerns the violations of the right to a fair trial and is probably the most important step for the respect of the right to a fair trial after enabling the right of individual petition. As for the weak conventional basis of the authority of res interpretata (“autorité de la chose interprétée”), this fact explains why an indirect dialogue between the ECHR and the Court of cassation is possible but doesn’t affect the applicant’s right to request an interpretation in accordance with the Court’s decisions and the duty of the Court of cassation to explain why it has decided to depart from the (non-binding) precedent.The second party of the study is bigger than the first one and is dedicated to the guarantees of the proper administration of justice (Article 6§1), the presumption of innocence (Article 6§2), the rights which find their conventional basis on the Article 6§1 but their logical explanation to the presumption of innocence and the rights of defence (Article 6§3). More precisely, the second party of the study is analyzing the right to an independent and impartial tribunal established by law, the right to a hearing within a reasonable time, the principle of equality of arms, the right to adversarial proceedings, the right of the defence to the last word, the right to a public hearing and a public pronouncement of the judgement, the judge’s duty to state the reasons for his decision, the presumption of innocence, in both its procedural and personal dimensions, the accused’s right to lie, his right to remain silent, his right against self-incrimination, his right to be informed of the nature and the cause of the accusation and the potential re-characterisation of the facts, his right to have adequate time and facilities for the preparation of the defence, including in particular the access to the case-file and the free and confidential communication with his lawyer, his right to appear in person at the trial, his right to defend either in person or through legal assistance, his right to be represented by his counsel, his right to free legal aid if he hasn’t sufficient means to pay for legal assistance but the interests of justice so require, his right to examine or have examined witnesses against him and to obtain the attendance and examination of witnesses on his behalf under the same conditions as witnesses against him and his right to the free assistance of an interpreter and to the translation of the key documents. The analysis is based on the decisions of the European Court of Human Rights and focuses on the position taken by the French and the Greek Court of Cassation (Areopagus) on each one of the above mentioned rights

The Position of Review Appeal in the System of Remedies Abstract What is the purpose of the review appeal in civil matters? Should the review appeal be of an ordinary or extraordinary nature? Should the admissibility requirements of the review appeal be determined entirely objectively, or should it depend, at least in part, on the subjective discretion of the appellate court? This is only a part of numerous questions that have accompanied the institute of review appeal for several historical stages and, due to the planned overall re- codification of the civil procedure law, these issues remain relevant even today. The author of this work aims to provide an answer to some of these questions based on a critical view of the historical development of the review appeal, current legislation concerning this matter and the review appeal from de lege ferenda perspective. In the first chapter, the author generally discusses remedies in civil proceedings, their nature, effects, and definition of the review appeal. The greatest attention is paid to the purposes of the review appeal, which include finding individual justice and unifying the decision-making practice of the civil courts. In the second chapter, the author focuses in detail on the historical development of the institute of review appeal. Its important...

Since the Teacher Art was proclaimed and implemented in the 84th year of the Republic Era, the Ministry of Education promulgated the Law to Teachers' Appeal Review Committee organization and review standards in accordance with Article 29 of the Teacher's Law, which was the basis for teachers' appeal. So far it was implemented more than 20 years. After the Appeal reviewed and amended many years later, the teacher system has become more perfect. The current Appeal system is the major and most commonly used administrative solutions when the rights of teachers are damaged, and its importance can’t be neglected. This study is only limited to the case of the Taiwan Provincial Appeals Committee of in 104th of the Republic Era of re-appeal of the results of the performance evaluation of the case, according to its contents to do the analysis and discussion, and consider the administrative procedures of the mode of operation and academic, legal and other points of views on the for proposing individual views and suggestions for follow-up researchers and amendments to teachers' performance evaluation and appeals system.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis aims to describe the new regulation of the application for appeal review introduced by means of an amendment to the Civil Procedure Code made by the act No. 404/2012 Sb. and to assess its compliance with the Constitution. During the preparation of this amendment a part of the Civil Procedure Code (specifically sec. 237 (1) c)) governing the admissibility of the discretionary application for appeal review was cancelled due to being in conflict with the Constitution by means of the decision of the Constitutional Court of 21 February 2012, file No. Pl.

The Constitutional Court criticized the old legislation for not being sufficiently predictable. It concluded that in order for the new legislation to comply with the Constitution the potential...

In recent years, high school students have initiated cases such as anti-class marches, and then show that high school students who were originally only in the course and system have begun to have the desire to pursue students' basic rights, and the high school stage has the rudiment of the university, entering the university field for students. In the pre-stage, it is also very different from the thinking and expression patterns of primary and secondary school students. It is a crucial period for cultivating its civic awareness. The establishment of a student appeal system on campus provides an instant for all kinds of matters that are fair to the interests of students. Rights relief mechanism. The first thing that comes to mind is the Article 16 right of the Constitution. The provisions of the Constitution clearly stipulate that "the people have the right to petition, petition and litigation", but the "appeal" that belongs to the administrative relief procedure is not listed in the constitutional provisions. The meaning of the interpretation of the Chief Justice's Interpretation No. 382 indicates that students must go through the school's appeal channel before submitting their lawsuits and administrative actions according to law. If this is the beginning of the clarification of the student appeal system, the expectation of this article is modern. The rule of law spirit to clarify the substance of the student complaints system, establish the legal basis of the student complaints system, set the core purpose and beneficial effects, and explore possible improvements through the review of the "Senior Secondary School Student Appeals Review Committee Organization and Operational Approach" Space, and then to build a more comprehensive high school student complaints system to protect students' basic rights.

The Application for an appeal review in civil court proceedings is an exceptional remedy, which may brought against final decisions of the Court of appeal. Through the application for an appeal review the Supreme Court of the Czech Republic not only corrects the defects of legal decisions of courts of appeal, but at the same time it keeps an eye on the unification of the decision-making practice of the courts of appeal. The legal regulation of the application for an appeal review is contained in particular in the Code of civil procedure, as amended, and its minor styling techniques can be found also in the Act on the special legal proceedings, and in the Act on courts and judges. Due to quite complicated legislation and high procedural demands that are placed on the application for an appeal review, is this extraordinary legal remedy a frequent subject of the decisions of the Supreme and the Constitutional Court, whose conclusions are in many decisions fundamentally distinguishing. These contradictions in such conclusions often makes legal regulation of an application for an appeal review even less transparent. The Code of civil procedure lays down the fundamental prerequisites to the admissibility of the application for an appeal review and its requirements. In the preparation of the application...

Full textAbstract:
One of the recognised ways through which a firm may increase its market share or reorganise its presence in a market is through a merger. A merger occurs when independent firms combine their businesses. Section 12A of the Competition Act, 1998, provides two grounds in terms of which mergers must be evaluated by competition authorities. These are competition and public interest considerations. The Act is reticent on which, between the two considerations, should take precedence in the event that the two conflict. The anterior purpose of this study is therefore to provide an in-depth analysis on which consideration must take precedence in the event of conflict. On analysis, the majority of case law suggests that the competition considerations must take precedence. This observation is also buttressed by a significant amount of literature, which holds that in merger analysis, the public interests only play a secondary role to the competition inquiry.Mercantile Law

It consist of three very separate parts, each of them following its own topic, linked up together only with major role of Constitutional Court (further "CC"). First chapter is dedicated to a slightly controversial case, which has been widely publicly discussed. The topic is strictly procedural, it refers to the possibilty of higher courts to remove and assign single cases to different judge/panel of judges. Although under certain circumstances allowed, in this case it seemed to be an unjustifed violation of art. 38 par. 1 of Letter of human rights and I conclude arguments, which could justify such restrictive process. Second one is following last ten years of interventions in Code of Civil Procedure, namely in regulation of review of appeal. In the first part are described reasons, why CC consider decision with missing justification unconstitutional and accordingly declares corresponding part of Code of Civil Procedure unconstitutional. In second part I analyze long-term contrary judgements of CC and Czech supreme court on admissibility of review of appeal which resulted in major part of regulation being declared unconstitutional.

Full textAbstract:
In South Africa compliance with competition law has become a major concern for firms that achieve and maintain certain levels of success and growth in the market, as their actions are often a source of complaints and litigation by rivals and competition authorities. With substantial financial penalties often levied against them for a variety of conduct deemed to constitute an abuse of their market position, dominant firms must constantly be aware of the likely impact of their business strategies and actions on both rivals and consumers. What were once thought to be normal and economically sound business practices and decisions, such as cutting prices to attract customers, have now acquired new meanings, with devastating consequences for dominant firms. So, are dominant firms under attack from competition law? In this study I aim to determine this.
I track the historical development of competition law in three jurisdictions: South Africa, America, and the EU, with the aim of identifying traces, if any, of hostility towards dominant firms in the origins of competition law. I further investigate whether the formulation and enforcement of certain aspects of existing abuse of dominance provisions manifest as hostility towards dominant firms. While acknowledging the important role that competition law enforcement plays in promoting competition and enhancing consumer welfare, I conclude that significant unjustified economic and legal prejudice is suffered by dominant firms as a result of the way in which certain abuse of dominance provisions have been formulated and applied. I also offer appropriate recommendations.Mercantile Law

Full textAbstract:
Le financement des municipalités québécoises repose en majeure partie sur des revenus autonomes, dont la principale source découle de leur pouvoir de taxer la richesse foncière. Par conséquent, le législateur, voulant assurer la stabilité financière des municipalités, a strictement encadré le processus de confection et de révision des évaluations foncières par plusieurs lois et règlements. Ceci n’a tout de même pas empêché l’augmentation des demandes de contestations à chaque nouveau rôle.
Débutant par une demande de révision administrative, à l’aide d’un simple formulaire, le litige entre la municipalité et le contribuable peut se poursuivre devant le Tribunal administratif du Québec et même la Cour du Québec, la Cour supérieure et la Cour d’appel, où la procédure devient de plus en plus exigeante. La transition du processus administratif à judiciaire crée parfois une certaine friction au sein de la jurisprudence, notamment au niveau de la déférence à accorder à l’instance spécialisée, ou encore à l’égard de la souplesse des règles de preuve applicables devant cette dernière.
Par une étude positiviste du droit, nous analysons tout d’abord la procédure de confection du rôle foncier, en exposant les acteurs et leurs responsabilités, ainsi que les concepts fondamentaux dans l’établissement de la valeur réelle des immeubles. Ensuite, nous retraçons chacune des étapes de la contestation d’une inscription au rôle, en y recensant les diverses règles de compétence, de preuve et de procédure applicables à chaque instance. À l’aide de nombreux exemples jurisprudentiels, nous tentons de mettre en lumière les différentes interprétations que font les tribunaux de la Loi sur la fiscalité municipale et autres législations connexes.Funding for Quebec municipalities relies largely on autonomous revenues. Specifically, their power to tax property wealth is the main source of income. Therefore, in order to ensure the financial stability of municipalities, the legislator has strictly regulated the assessment review process with several laws and regulations. This still has not prevented the increase of demands for reviews with each new roll. Starting with an application for an administrative review, which in fact is simply a form, the dispute between the municipality and the taxpayer may continue before the Administrative Tribunal of Quebec and even the Court of Quebec, the Superior Court and the Court of Appeal, where the complexity of the procedure increases. The transition to the judicial from the administrative process sometimes creates friction in the case law, particularly in terms of deference to be accorded to the specialized authority, or with regard to the flexibility of the rules of evidence that apply to the latter. From a positivist study of law, we first analyze the assessment roll making process by exposing the actors and their responsibilities, as well as the fundamental concepts used for determining the actual value of the properties. We then track every stage of the contestation of an entry on the roll by identifying various rules of jurisdiction, evidence and procedure in each instance. With the help of many jurisprudential examples, we attempt to highlight the different interpretations that the courts do of the Act Respecting Municipal Taxation and other related legislation.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the sentencing practice of the military
courts. Since an independent and impartial military judiciary is essential to
ensure that justice is done a further aim of this study is to investigate whether the
military courts are impartial, independent and affords the accused his fair trial
rights. The sentences imposed by military courts are investigated and concerns
regarding the imposition of these sentences are identified. Finally the appeal and
review procedures followed by the military courts are investigated with specific
reference to the military accused’s right appeal and review to a higher court as
provided for by the Constitution. The sentencing phase of a trial forms an
important part of the whole trial process. This is also true for military trials, yet no
research has been done on military sentencing practice. Because of the
potential influence of the draft Military Discipline Bill and the Law Reform
Commission’s revision of the defence legislation on sentencing, research in this
area is critical in the positive development of sentencing law in the military justice
environment. An extensive literature study is undertaken to evaluate current
military sentencing practices against civilian practices. The result of this study
identifies certain concerns regarding the independence of the military courts, the
treatment of military offenders and the appeal and review powers of the military
reviewing authority. To a large extent it is also found that many concerns are
based on the apparent rather than the existence of any real dangers to the
independence of the military courts or the rights of the military accused. This
thesis contributes to the accessibility of military law for a civilian audience,
creating a platform for the development of future military sentences.Jurisprudence

User reviews of mobile apps often contain complaints or suggestions which are valuable for app developers to improve user experience and satisfaction. However, due to the large volume and noisy-nature of those reviews, manually analyzing them for useful opinions is quite challenging. To address this problem, we propose Ap- pCAT, a sentiment and feature mining framework for automated review analysis. AppCAT defines the initial sets of keywords of those comments. And it use word similarity technique to expand the initial sets by grouping other keywords to find out the product features of those apps. Furthermore, AppCAT detects the sentiment and its subject(a product feature) of those reviews and figure out the user attitude towards those product feature of a specific app. AppCAT use those data to plot a bar chart to visualize those feature polarities for users to facilitate if they should consider this app. For the app developers, they can use this system to get the opinion overview of users as a basis of revision.

Scarcity appeal, frequently used by retailers and e-tailers, has become a very important marketing approach to effect consumers’ purchase behavior. Consumers are constantly and unconsciously exposed to such concepts of limited offers or constrained opportunities induced by the marketers. In most cases, scarcity phenomena are considered as limited quantity, uniqueness, prestige and costliness perceived by the customers. However, scarcity claims also refer to limitations – limited quantity of goods or services, limited abilities, or limited time to achieve the desired fulfillments in economics. The category of scarce product and the type of scarcity on consumers’ anticipated future prices toward limited products are also classified to underlying consumers’ inference. This review is to integrate the concepts of existing studies on scarcity types and the effects on five core stages of Consumer Decision Process (CDP), with the phenomenon of off-line and on-line, and also to seek out the understanding of consumers’ psychological responses to the scarcity types, at each stage, that are manipulated or strategically created by marketers. Moreover, the anticipated price appreciation or change in the future appears in various types of scarcity goods or services are also categorized to help in explaining the scarce phenomena associated with applied pricing strategies.

The Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996 (Act 108 of 1996) stipulates that every person has the right of access to information held by government. To give effect to this right, legislation in the form of the Promotion of Access to Information Act, 2000 (Act 2 of 2000) was promulgated. This study explores the access to information regime that was established by die aforementioned legislation with specific reference to similar regimes in the United States of America, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. Attention is also devoted to the prerequisites and potential obstacles associated with the implementation of the Promotion of Access to Information Act, 2000.
Based on the practices in other states, the conclusion was reached that the nature of information that may be requested in the South African context should be expanded, that cabinet records should only be excluded to the extent that disclosure thereof would be harmful, that frequently requested records should be made automatically available and that decision-making guidelines of government institutions should be published. As far as procedural requirements are concerned, it is proposed that information officers should acknowledge receipt of requests and that, where necessary, records should be translated to ensure that they are useful to a requester. It is further proposed that the wording of the ground of refusal regarding policy formulation and decision-making in government institutions be amended to take account of the consequences of disclosure. It is imperative that appeal and review mechanisms be accessible to members of the public and it is therefore proposed that an information commissioner be instituted to settle disputes in information related matters. Lastly it is proposed that sanctions be imposed against officials who deliberately undermine the public's right of access to information and that separate units be established in government institutions to deal exclusively with requests for access to information.Public Administration

The object of this dissertation focuses, in particular, on analysis of individual means of protection of rights in public administration (i.e. the issue of the protection of public subjective rights) and their mutual relationships between them at level of legal regulation de lege lata. However, certain space had to be dedicated also to the procedures of public administration in matters related to private subjective rights as even the public administration decides on certain matters of private law. As regards the protection of private rights by public administration I mentioned the dualism of the review of decisions of public bodies and certain examples of public administration deciding on matters of private subjective rights. Further I stressed the issue of civil liability related to the conduct of public administration, i.e. liability for damages caused by unlawful decision and unlawful procedure.
