Abstract:
By operation of means of transport some damage may not appear suddenly but after long repeated influence. In such cases application of causality test ‘conditio sine qua non’ leads to the result that if it is not possible to determine some liable persons unambiguously, damages bears the damaged person. Such a conclusion is not in accordance with the conception of the heightened level of legal protection of damaged persons in cases of strict liability, which is also liability for damages caused by operation of means of transport. The solution may lies in the application of alternative causality

Abstract:
This article focuses on the April 2004 EC Directive on Environmental Liability (Directive 2004/35/CE). It examines its measure of damages, its framework for assessing damages and its provisions regarding the issue of standing. Comparisons will regularly be made with the United States Oil Pollution Act of 1990, its natural resource damage regulations and its provisions on locus standi. Finally, a comparison is made with international civil liability conventions that cover damage to natural resources. The goal of the analysis is to show that the Directive's rules on assessing damages are inspire

Abstract:
Statutory organs of business companies (and similarly of co-operatives) have numerous obligations imposed by generally binding provisions; relied with these is the liability for non-fulfilment of the latter. Some of the obligations are imposed directly by the laws, some are assumed on contractual basis. Their infringements may lead to the liability for the situation and consequences occurred. The regulation of the liability of persons engaged in the company’s bodies covers persons that are entrusted by the management of foreign assets.

The article analyzes the relationship between the institutions of liability and liability insurance, aimed at identifying the modalities of their interaction. Insurance indisputably affects the development and scope of tort law, but this influence is not one-sided. At the present development level it has been noted that liability insurance also plays an indispensable role in indemnity litigation. The development path of liability insurance shows that the developed legal order entails two mutually compatible systems. Whilst objective liability for damages is the response to numerous activities

Abstract:
The Damages Directive introduces the right to ‘full compensation’ and the principle of ‘joint and several liability’ for antitrust damages (Article 3(1) and Article 11(1) respectively). The Directive does not determine the type of damage that can be awarded in civil proceedings. In theory, there are thus no barriers to establish punitive, multiple or other damages. In practice, it is rather unlikely that such types of damages will be awarded after the implementation of the Directive due to the ban placed on overcompensation in its Article 2(3).

Abstract:
This thesis seeks to justify on moral grounds the existence of tort systems. The argument is that corrective justice is necessary but not sufficient to succeed at this task. Corrective justice is necessary because it is the only principle that can adequately justify the bilateral structure of tort litigation between claimants and defendants, and full compensatory damages as the default remedy in most tort systems. However, it is argued that the critiques to corrective justice lead us to the important lesson that tort law is more than just corrective justice. Three gaps of corrective justice ar

Abstract:
This chapter examines the processes used to quantify damages in competition cases. It begins with a discussion of compensatory damages and the various ways that they are assessed by the courts. Compensatory damages are designed to restore the claimant to the position the claimant would have been in had the restrictive conduct not occurred. Hence, the assessment necessarily involves a hypothetical scenario known as a counterfactual. Other factors to consider in calculating damages include proof of loss and collateral benefits. The chapter proceeds by analysing the remoteness of damage, focusing on the burden of proving causation, the scope of the defendant’s liability, and contingencies. It also explains how damages may be reduced because of a failure to mitigate or through contributory negligence, before concluding with an overview of the issue of pass-on, the principle of joint and several liability for the damage, and contribution proceedings.

Of the many options available (i.e., habitat modification, exclusion, repellents) for addressing nuisance wildlife problems, translocation—capturing and moving—of the offending animal is often perceiv
