The new regulatory framework, established in the matter of accelerating the process of restitution of real estate properties and of the compensatory measures by the Law No 165/2013 on measures for the finalisation of the process of restitution, in kind or by equivalent, of the buildings abusively taken over during the communist regime in Romania, also includes some regulations concerning the cases and the modalities of cancellation of the titles of property issued by the county commissions of land resources. In the ambience of the new regulatory framework, this study analyzes the regulations established by the Law No 165/2013 in the matter of cancellation or change of titles of property issued by the county commissions of land resources, as well as in the matter of cancellation or of changing the decisions issued by these commissions, which stood as basis for the issuance of the title of property. The analysis of these issues has been made by reference of the provisions of the Law No 165/2013 to other provisions established by the Law No 18/1991, the Regulation for application of this law, as well as by reference to the special normative acts of reparatory nature.

The author comes to the conclusion that, even when the judicial remedy of appeal ex novo is suppressed, the appeal on law preserves its nature of extraordinary remedy.

Like other modern enactments, the current Romanian Civil Code provides for a series of „rights of the personality”, which include, inter alia, the right to honour. The authors of this paper make a series of considerations in relation to this right „to honour”, in relation to both the Romanian legislation and legislations in Western Europe, taking into account that, in the Romanian legal doctrine, the right in question has been less studied prior to the entry into force of the current Civil Code (1 October 2011).

The Treaty on European Union includes not only the core of the Community rules, but also references to the necessity to bring some amendments to the national legislation of Member States in accordance with these rules. Complying with this requirement, the Romanian legislator constantly brings amendments which, in criminal matters, involve an interdisciplinary approach, imposing compliance with general principles of law and with principles specific for the protection of human rights and for European Union law.

If in ancient times it was often confounded with legal science and constituted a genuine source of law, gradually, case-law transformed into a form of explanation, addition, and elimination of obscurity of the legal text, by the judge, in the process of interpreting and enforcing the law. At the same time, its relations to the doctrine have also evolved, the latter being called upon today to decode case-law rules, assuring their clarity and complete expression of their meanings, from the „inside” of the process of creating law. Case-law phenomenon is an object of analysis for the legal science, in terms of external factors that configure and influence it. The case-law revival noticed partially and specifically after 1989 also in Romania, given the transition, is expected to fully manifest itself in the following period, just after the end of the legislative reform, realized by the adoption and entering into force of the new codes.

Brokerul de asigurare, care are și calitatea de mandatar al unei întreprinderi de asigurare străine, fiind împuternicit de aceasta să soluționeze cererile de despăgubiri în eventualitatea accidentelor de circulație produse de autovehicule asigurate în străinătate, nu este parte la raportul juridic obligațional născut prin producerea faptului delictual. Astfel, întrucât brokerul de asigurare este terț față de contractul de asigurare în temeiul căruia au fost solicitate despăgubirile, acesta nu poate fi obligat în nume propriu la plata despăgubirilor. (Înalta Curte de Casație și Justiție, Secția a II-a civilă, Decizia nr. 2156 din 30 mai 2013)
