Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Legal privilege and professional secrecy of attorneys relate to the right to a fair trial (Article 6 European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR)) as well as to the right to respect for private and family life (Article 8 ECHR). The reason for protecting the lawyer via fundamental rights is the protection of fundamental rights of the lawyer’s clients. All legal orders apply legal privileges and professional secrecy; however, the contents of such are not identical. Traditionally there is an important difference between common and civil law. The professional secrecy of an attorney in civil law jurisdictions is his right and at the same time his obligation based on his membership of the Bar (that is his legal profession). In common law legal privilege comprises the contents of documents issued by an attorney to the client. Professional secrecy of attorneys in civil law jurisdictions applies solely to independent lawyers; in-house lawyers are usually not allowed to benefit from rules on professional secrecy (exceptions in the Netherlands and Belgium). On the other hand, common law jurisdictions apply legal professional privilege, recognized also to in-house lawyers. Slovenian law follows the traditional civil law concept of professional secrecy and sets a limited privilege to in-house lawyers. The article then discusses Slovenian law of civil procedure and compares the position of professional secrecy in lawsuits before State’s courts and in arbitration.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The legal basis for the participation of a lawyer in international cooperation in criminal proceedings are international standards based on the provisions of international legal acts on human rights and freedoms and the implementation of criminal justice, guaranteeing the right to defense and the functioning of the bar. The view is supported that international legal acts regulating the activities of the bar can be divided into several groups, namely: international legal acts that ensure the realization of human and civil rights and freedoms of a general nature; international legal acts guaranteeing the realization of human and civil rights and freedoms of a special nature; international legal acts establishing general principles for the provision of legal aid and the activities of lawyers. A lawyer in criminal proceedings during international cooperation is involved to perform the function of protection in case of certain procedural actions within the framework of international legal assistance, extradition of persons who have committed a criminal offense, the implementation of criminal proceedings subject to its adoption. However, on a general basis, a lawyer in criminal proceedings for the protection of the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of participants in criminal proceedings has the status of defense counsel. It is concluded that international legal acts provide for the exercise of the right to legal assistance of a lawyer in the implementation of international cooperation in criminal proceedings by: ensuring timely access of the lawyer to the client; confidentiality of the lawyer’s contacts with the client; enshrining in the legislation such a scope of professional rights of a lawyer, which in modern conditions of development of the state and society is sufficient for the effective implementation of legal aid; non-interference in the lawful professional activity of a lawyer, etc. The provisions formed in the scientific article can be used with the participation of lawyers in international cooperation in criminal proceedings in order to ensure human protection in pretrial investigation and judicial institutions, representation, participation in certain procedural actions.

Carle, Susan D. "Conceptions of Agency in Social Movement Scholarship: Mack on African American Civil Rights Lawyers". Law & Social Inquiry 39, n. 02 (2014): 522–46. http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/lsi.12072.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This essay examines the theory of individual agency that propels the central thesis in Kenneth Mack's Representing the Race: The Creation of the Civil Rights Lawyer (2012)—namely, that an important yet understudied means by which African American civil rights lawyers changed conceptions of race through their work was through their very performance of the professional role of lawyer. Mack shows that this performance was inevitably fraught with tension and contradiction because African American lawyers were called upon to act both as exemplary representatives of their race and as performers of a professional role that traditionally had been reserved for whites only. Mack focuses especially on the tensions of this role in courtrooms, where African American lawyers were necessarily called upon to act as the equals of white judges, opposing counsel, and witnesses. Mack's thesis, focused on the contradictions and tensions embodied in the performance of a racially loaded identity, reflects the influence of postmodern identity performance theory as articulated by Judith Butler and others. Mack and others belong to a new generation of civil rights history scholars who are asking new questions about contested identities related to race, gender, sexuality, and class. This essay offers an evaluation of this new direction for civil rights scholarship, focusing especially on its implicit normative orientation and what it contributes to the decade‐old debate over how to conceive of agency in social movement scholarship.

This article aims to analyze the defendants’ right to access a lawyer in criminal law, as defined in international legal standards, and determine the extent to which the legislation of Lao pdr complies. This study finds that Lao law is consistent with international law as regards the defendant’s right to gain access to a lawyer, for instance, as enshrined in the National Constitution, Criminal Law, Civil Law and the Law on Lawyers. However, this article will argue that defendants are not aware of their rights due to poor economic resources and the lack of information on the availability of legal aid services and how to access such services. On the other hand, defendants are unable to implement their rights effectively due to the limited and incompetent protection offered by lawyers. Additionally, legal practitioners and local authorities are not familiar with and accepting of the relevant legislation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This article is devoted to the study of the theoretical and scientific-practical nature of the institution of representation in the EU countries and the development of proposals based on them on improving the legal status of a lawyer in Ukraine, taking into account the best European practice. The place of the advocacy in the modern legal system can be characterized as one of the ways of self-restraint of state power through the creation and functioning of an independent human rights institution that promotes its activities by fulfilling the constitutional function of the state – the realization and protection of human rights and freedoms. The constitutional and legal status allows advocates to participate in ensuring the rights not only of everyone, but of the whole civil society, to implement the human rights function, ensuring the interaction in the activity of the institutional systems of the state and civil society. Since 2012, the advocacy reform has been initiated and brought to the standards of the European Union. However, over 6 years have passed, but no significant positive changes have taken place in this field. Ensuring the constitutional rights and freedoms of citizens still leaves much to be desired. The issue of voluntary admission of lawyers to the National Association of Advocates of Ukraine will be resolved, and so-called "lawyer's monopoly" needs to be substantially revised. Therefore, the review of the grounds, the rules, and the regularity of the prosecution in civil proceedings, which is carried out by the two advocates, needs a substantial improvement. In order to create in Ukraine the model of legal assistance taking into account modern legal frameworks, that is a guarantee of the right of accessibility and effectiveness of judicial protection in civil proceedings.

We consider the importance of advocateship in the process of protecting human rights and freedoms, the interests of organizations, society and the state. We indicate the grounds and circumstances of the provision by lawyers of qualified legal assistance to certain categories of citizens, including on a non-refundable basis. We reveal the importance of the professional and business qualities of a lawyer, as a representative of the lawyer community, in providing legal assistance. We pay attention to the high moral, ethical and legal nature of the lawyers activities, in particular, the moral requirements for the lawyer personality; activity in defending the interests of the grantor (client); legal guarantees for the independence of a lawyer and others. Advocateship, as an institution that does not belong to state power, but to civil society, which has such characteristics as autonomy, independence, cor-poratism, self-government, has a significant role in the law enforcement ac-tivity of the state. Envisage to increase the role of the lawyer community in advocacy, to increase the qualifications of lawyer personnel, expand the rights of lawyers in providing legal assistance, and significantly improve the information and technical base. A number of legislative transformations to increase the effective functioning of the lawyer community, enhancing the professional advocateship independence of the Russian Federation, can be-come productive only when the state ensures the trust of citizens on the part of the lawyer community, it is also necessary to end impunity in the advocacy sphere, and increase the level of legal order and legality, to strengthen the supervision quality of the rights and freedoms of man and citizen observance institution.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Abstract This article raises the problem of the inclusion of gender in the civil status of the person and argues that public lawyers are now called on to understand whether a genderless civil status is constitutionally permissible and desirable. Admittedly, this is not an easy task. Gender categories are deeply rooted in our legal systems. Arguably, they may prove necessary for the achievement of constitutionally grounded public interests and protect fundamental rights, such as equality between men and women. The task that public lawyers are faced with is further complicated by the affirmation of the right to gender recognition based on self-determination, and the inclusion of nonbinary genders in the law. These developments are indeed profoundly transforming the way in which gender is registered and controlled. Importantly, they put in doubt the effectiveness of gender as a criterion of legal categorization.

Lawyer's "strike" in Serbia is a new practical instrument of pressure for the protection of professional and economic interests. The author points to the Rawls theory of civil disobedience, considering that the crisis of the legal system and general endangering of freedom and rights, claim from lawyers that their interests should subordinate to interests of citizens and that the protests and discontents should be expressed in other ways, different from the obstruction of their own function and the function of the administration of justice.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
A pesquisa busca analisar a trajetória dos advogados gaúchos Eloar Guazzelli, Werner Becker e Omar Ferri durante a ditadura civil-militar brasileira relacionando-as com a emergência da causa dos direitos humanos. Estes advogados ficaram reconhecidos pela sua atuação na defesa de presos políticos e por suas atividades como criminalistas. Devido ao seu trabalho, durante a ditadura eles surgiram no espaço público denunciando e atacando as violências e o arbítrio cometidos pelo Estado, o que fez com que eles ganhassem notoriedade na cena política, relacionando sua atuação com a causa dos direitos humanos. Este reconhecimento levou-os a iniciarem uma carreira política e candidatarem-se a cargos eletivos, o que aconteceu na eleição de 1982: Guazzelli e Ferri lançaram candidatura à deputado federal e Becker à vereador em Porto Alegre. Isto foi auxiliado pela atuação destes advogados dentro de entidades classistas, como o Instituto dos Advogados do Rio Grande do Sul (IARGS) e a seccional gaúcha da Ordem dos Advogados do Brasil (OAB/RS), que, ao longo da ditadura, passaram a criticar publicamente o regime. Desta forma, o trabalho procura mostrar os diferentes meios nos quais os personagens transitaram com o intuito de reconstruir o processo no qual conquistaram seu reconhecimento como advogados e militantes de esquerda.The research seeks to analyze the trajectory of the lawyers Eloar Guazzelli, Werner Becker and Omar Ferri during the Brazilian civil-military dictatorship, relating them to the emergence of the cause of human rights. These lawyers were recognized for their role in the defense of political prisoners and for their activities as criminalists. Due to their work, during the dictatorship they appeared in the public scene denouncing and attacking the violence and arbitration committed by the State, which caused them to gain notoriety in the political scene, relating their action to the cause of human rights. This recognition led them to start a political career and to stand for elected positions, which happened in the 1982 election: Guazzelli and Ferri launched candidacy for the federal deputy and Becker to the councilor in Porto Alegre. This was aided by the work of these lawyers within class entities, such as the Rio Grande do Sul Lawyers Institute (IARGS) and the Rio Grande do Sul branch of the Brazilian Bar Association (OAB / RS), which, throughout the dictatorship, publicly criticize the regime. In this way, the research tries to show the different means in which the characters have transited with the intention to reconstruct the process in which they have gained their recognition as advocates and militants of the left.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This dissertation analyses the ability of Chinese lawyers to use administrative litigation to protect individuals and groups from an authoritarian state that frequently infringes on their rights. These plaintiffs fill administrative courts in China, opposing the overzealous tactics of police, challenging the expropriation of their land, and disputing the seizure and demolition of their homes. Empirically, it relies on several unique data sources in a mixed-methodological approach. Qualitative and small-n quantitative data from 126 interviews with a random sample of Chinese lawyers and 52 additional interviews are supplemented by documentary sources. These findings are then tested against official data and a large survey of Chinese lawyers. This research demonstrates that administrative litigation is part of a polycentric authoritarian system that helps the Chinese state to monitor its agents, allows limited political participation, and facilitates economic development (Chapter One). By giving ordinary Chinese a chance to hold their local governments accountable in court, administrative litigation represents a significant step towards rule of law, but its limited scope means that it has not been accompanied by dramatic liberalisation (Chapter Three). In part, this is because the most prolific and successful administrative litigators are politically embedded lawyers, insiders who challenge the state in court but eschew the most radical cases and tactics (Chapter Four). The tactics that allow politically embedded lawyers to successfully litigate administrative cases rely on and contribute to China’s polycentric authoritarianism by drawing in other state, quasi-state, and non-state actors (Chapter Five). Multinationals in China are largely failing to contribute to the development of China’s legal system because they readily accept preferential treatment from the Chinese state as an alternative to litigation (Chapter Six). While administrative litigation bolsters China’s polycentric authoritarianism in the short term, it offers tremendous potential for rationalisation, liberalisation, and even democratisation in the long term.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
It cannot be argued that according to the recent Omani law the accused has the right of access to a lawyer at any stage of the criminal proceedings. Nevertheless, it could be argued that the accused at some points may access a lawyer if he has one, otherwise the state is not obliged to offer him one under any circumstances and in any kind of crimes. There is no single rule stating that the accused must be represented by a lawyer even if he is facing capital punishment. Although the Omani law gives the accused the right to have the lawyer that he hired present with him during the investigation in general terms, there are no provisions to ensure that mechanisms are put in place which guarantee the effectiveness of such right. The Omani legislator has followed the approach upon which the presence of the lawyer is permissible, although this does not necessarily apply during the pre-trial stages in all cases. This research argues that, having no right of free access to a lawyer privileges those who are wealthier because such accused have the means to appoint a lawyer from the outset, a capacity that often evades the poorer accused. If the accused cannot afford a lawyer, the state should appoint one for him, grounded in the motivations of the state being concerned with achieving justice. The research addressed the question whether the Omani Law and particularly the Penal Procedures Code succeed in guaranteeing the accused right of access to a lawyer. Moreover, it considered whether the Omani law set the required procedures and safeguards to make all officials in charge of investigations and trials commit to respecting this right at all circumstances. These issues are considered by critically analysing the relevant Omani law and case law as well as looking at other legal frameworks, with special reference to the Egyptian System. This comparison has been provided in order to give a contextual base upon which the practicing of this right within the Omani Procedures Code can be critically analysed. This study found that there is a great deal of reform for the Omani legislator to urgently do in regard to the right of access to a lawyer during all criminal proceedings stages.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
« La représentation et l’assistance du plaideur en justice » constitue un sujet classique, mais plus que jamais contemporain. Face à la crise de la justice civile, mais aussi devant son évolution rapide, les choix de politique législative actuels font preuve d’une volonté de renforcer la représentation obligatoire par avocat. Bien que la représentation et l’assistance du plaideur en justice soient utilisées quotidiennement, leur définition et leur finalité en procédure civile restent obscures. Qu’est-ce que « la représentation et l’assistance du plaideur en justice » ? À quoi sert « la représentation et l’assistance du plaideur en justice » ? Notre étude tend à la résolution de ce double problème. À cette fin, nous examinons la nature et la fonction de la représentation et de l’assistance du plaideur en justice. Quant à leur nature, il convient d’analyser leurs composantes conventionnelle et institutionnelle comportant leurs réalités intérieures et extérieures qui les définissent en droit. Quant à leur fonction, il faut approfondir leurs finalités d’intérêt privé et d’intérêt général visant respectivement la protection des droits fondamentaux du plaideur et la bonne administration de la justice. Cette étude permet d’apporter une définition de la représentation et de l’assistance du plaideur en justice, de leur restituer toute leur valeur en procédure civile au regard de leur finalité, de fournir des réponses aux problématiques rencontrées dans la pratique juridictionnelle et d’enrichir la réflexion sur l’avenir de la procédure civile. Elle aboutit à des propositions sur une réforme de la procédure civile fondée sur la représentation à l’instance par avocat"Legal representation and legal assistance of litigant" is a classic topic, more than ever contemporary, though. In front of civil justice crisis and its rapid evolution, current legislative choices show a willingness to strenghten legal representation by lawyer. Despite the use of legal representation and legal assistance of litigant on a daily basis, their definition and finality remain obscure. What is "legal representation and legal assistance of litigant" ? Which is the purpose of "legal representation and legal assistance of litigant" ? This study tends to solve this double question by examining the nature and the function of legal representation and legal assistance of litigant. As for their nature, it is their conventional and institutional components including their internal and external realities that contibute to their legal definition, that must be analysed. As for their function, it is necessary to delve into their private and general interest aims that respectively tend to protect the fundamental rights of the litigant and the proper administration of justice. This study permits a definition of legal representation and legal assistance of litigant, restores their value in civil procedure with regard to their purpose, provides answers to the judicial practice problems and permits to enrich the reflection on civil procedure’s futur. It leads to proposals for a reform of the civil procedure based on legal representation by lawyer

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Les personnes déplacées à la suite de la destruction de l’environnement sont de plus en plus nombreux. Leur protection au plan juridique pose plusieurs problèmes au niveau international. La notion de souveraineté fait face à celle de l’obligation de protéger ; l’assistance de la communauté internationale après une catastrophe s’impose comme la règle d’or. Un diagnostic du droit international actuel notamment en matière de protection des réfugiés ou de l’environnement montre clairement le vide juridique existant. La création d’un instrument juridique nouveau au plan international visant la protection de ces déplacés environnementaux pourrait être la solution si les obstacles sociaux, politiques, économiques et même idéologiques n’existaient pas. Cette thèse analyse la notion de déplacé environnemental à travers la problématique que pose la recherche de leur statut juridique au plan international, elle nous permet d’analyser à l’aide de la prospective juridique les propositions de solutions présentées par certains universitaires et ouvre des pistes sérieuses de réflexions pour l’adoption d’un instrument de protection efficaceToday, environmentally displaced persons are becoming more numerous. Their legal status poses several problems at international level. The notion of sovereignty faces to that of obligation to protect; assistance by international community after environmental disasters is becoming the standard. A diagnosis of current international situation, especially in the protection of refugees and in environment law, clearly shows the existing of legal vacuum. The creation of a new legal international instrument for protection of these environmentally displaced persons could be the solution if the social, economic, political and even ideological barriers did not exist. This thesis analyzes the concept of environmentally displaced persons through the problem posed by the research of their legal status in international law. We analyze with legal prospective method, proposed solutions presented by some academics which opens serious reflections for an effective instrument of protection

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Relying on interviews of Indian rights lawyers as well as archival research, this collective history excavates a missing page in the history of the modern tribal sovereignty movement. At a time when vocal Native American political protests were raging from Washington State, to Alcatraz Island, to Washington, D.C., a small group of newly graduated lawyers started quietly resurrecting Indian rights through the law. Between 1964 and 1974, these non-Indian and Native American lawyers litigated on behalf of Indians, established legal assistance programs as part of the War on Poverty efforts to provide American citizens with equal access to a better life, and founded institutions to support the protection of tribal rights. In the process, they would also inadvertently create both a profession and an academic field—Indian law as we know it today—which has since attracted an increasing number of lawyers, including Native Americans. This story is an attempt at reconstituting a major dimension of the rise of tribal sovereignty in the postwar era, one that has until now remained in the shadows of history: how Indian rights, considered obsolete until the 1960s, gained legitimacy by seizing a series of opportunities made available in part through ‘accidents’ of history. The work done by this new generation of Indian rights lawyers between the mid-1960s and the mid-1970s recast definitions of tribal sovereignty in Indian Country as well as the practice and teaching of Indian law. At its core, this project seeks to realize three aspirations: First, to explain where Native American rights come from and how they interact, engage, and fit in with American law; second, to dissect the uses and limitations of law as an avenue for the pursuit of social justice; and third, to probe the question of whether the United States can function as a plural state capable of hosting multiple visions of politics, law, and culture.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Part 2 provides the context for civil rights litigation and includes chapter 3, “Big Events”; chapter 4, “The Tenor of the Times”; chapter 5, “Arrests of Lawyers (and Other ‘Minor Indignities’)”; and chapter 6, “Modes of Law Practice.” Some of the stories arise from big events like the 1965 Selma march, the 1968 Democratic Convention, and the first civil damages verdict against the KKK in Mississippi. Other stories provide the tenor of the times: the atmosphere of mass meetings, marches, and boycotts; the frustration of unsuccessfully seeking damages for police brutality; abuses encountered for being married to a civil rights lawyer. Arrests of and assaults on civil rights lawyers were not uncommon. The growth in civil rights protests and demonstrations required a great increase in the number of lawyers to represent the movement. This chapter explores how those needs were met: by nonprofits (like the Legal Defense Fund, LCDC [Lawyers Constitutional Defense Committee], and the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law); by government funded legal services, and by an emerging group of lawyers in private practice, both black and white, who aligned themselves with the civil rights movement

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Part 1 tells ten stories of young people who chose to be civil rights lawyers. Part 1 includes chapters 1, “Children of the South,” and chapter 2, “Children of the North.” Some of the lawyers were children of the South. All had grown up in a completely segregated society. For blacks, the opportunity to challenge the status quo they had always known contained a large measure of personal and cultural gratification and moral outrage. For whites, the evolution was one of a growing conviction of the immorality of the system that had nurtured them. Some of the lawyers were children of the North. Through a variety of experiences, they caught the fever of the civil rights movement in the Deep South and came south to help make changes. Some were Jews whose feelings were informed by the Holocaust. Some were blacks who had had a big enough taste of racism in the North to be lured into the rapidly changing South. For young lawyers from both the North and the South, their experience was materially impacted by their race

In the twenty-first century it can be hard to appreciate how remarkably welcoming the federal judiciary was to the claims of the civil rights movement. Part 3 includes chapter 7, “Access to Justice”; chapter 8, “Voting Rights and Political Representation”; chapter 9, “Public Accommodations”; chapter 10, “School Desegregation and Municipal Equalization”; and chapter 11, “Employment Discrimination.” Voting rights and political representation were key. The Voting Rights Act of 1965 opened the portals for dramatic increases in black voter registration. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 mandated equal accommodation in hotels, motels, restaurants, theaters, and other public places. Some applications of these rights were realized immediately, others not so much. This was the era in which the promise of the Supreme Court’s school desegregation decision became a reality in the Deep South. Desegregation suits proliferated. The Supreme Court dramatically increased the pace of desegregation. The varied forms of pushback were astonishing: the shutting down of a historic black high school lest white students have to attend (even at the expense of double sessions); the hiding of athletic trophies from the historic black high school upon merger; the suspension and expulsion of many black students at the moment of desegregation. The other major accomplishment of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was the ban on employment discrimination. At the time of its passage, job and labor union segregation were ubiquitous in the Deep South. This all changed.

The law establishes that representatives in the courts can be both lawyers and other persons providing legal assistance, as well as legal representatives. The Constitutional Court in its Resolution No. 15-P of 16.07.2004 indicated that representatives of legal entities in arbitration proceedings can be any person. But in accordance with Item II (A) (a) of the List of Specific Obligations of the Russian Federation for Services Included in Annex I to the Protocol of 16 December 2011 "On the Accession of the Russian Federation to the Marrakesh Agreement on the establishing of the WTO", only those who received the status Lawyer in accordance with Russian law, has the right to represent in criminal courts and Russian arbitration courts, as well as act as a representative of organizations in civil and administrative proceedings and proceedings on cases of administrative violations. Appropriate legislative changes are needed. The law states that the use of the terms "advocacy", "lawyer", "lawyer's chamber", "lawyer’s entity" in the names of organizations is allowed only by lawyers. Every year, Russia's tax inspections register dozens of organizations set up by non-layers, illegally including the above terms in their names. The law should provide not only prohibitions, but also sanctions for violation of these prohibitions. Collegiums of advocates often include the phrase "partners" in their names. But lawyers - members of the board are not partners and do not sign partnership agreements. Partners can not be among the governing bodies of the collegium . The application by collegiums of lawyers of the rules provided for non-commercial partnerships by the Federal Law "On Non-Profit Organizations" in the part of partners is illegal.
Only lawyers can establish a lawyer’s bureau and conclude a partnership agreement. But in practice in lawyer’s bureau, persons who do not have the status of a lawyer become partners. In other countries, in associating lawyers limited liability partnerships, along with partners, there are "associates". The introduction of such "associates" in our lawyer’s bureau will be a good alternative to attempts to include commercial organizations in the composition of lawyer entities.
