In this study the author resumes an older discussion within the Romanian doctrine of civil law, insofar if and in the light of art. 885 of the current Civil Code (Law no. 287/2009, republished on July 15th 2011 and entered into force as at October 1st 2011), the registration in the land book has or has not constitutive or translative effect of rights, in case of real rights in immovables. -
Since the new Romanian Civil Code entered into force (Law no. 287/2009, republished on July 15th 2011) on October 1st 2011, the author examines in which circumstances the new legislation regarding the divorce cases on the docket (in first instance or appeal) might or not apply as at the date of entry into force of the new law (October 1st 2011). The author concludes that in the field of family right, due to the absence of expressly contrary provisions within the Law no. 71/2011 concerning enactment of the new Civil Code, the processes and requests on the docket are governed only by the law in force at the date the action (summons) was advanced. Therefore, the new law cannot be enforced (in absence of an expressly contrary provision) for a case already on remedy (appeal, second appeal).

This study accurately describes some of the controversial aspects within the labour legislation: applicability, in terms of probation, of the regulations regarding the period of probation, concluding that art. 31 par. (3) of the Labour Code (termination of the employment agreement without notice and justification) is also effective in this case; decrease of working time from 5 business days to 4 business days per week in case of temporary reduction of activity, with the specification that the alteration of this program can only be operated if a minimum 30 business days reduction of activity has already occurred; the deadline by which the employer must enforce disciplinary sanctions, pointing out that the deadline of 30 days is computed as of the date the employer receives the disciplinary investigation report which qualifies the deed of the employee as disciplinary offence, while de deadline of 6 months is computed as of its time of perpetration; the parties to the collective negotiation at the unit level and the parties to the collective employment conflict at the same level, stating that, in case of such conflict, only the representative union or the employees’ representatives, as the case may be, can act as party on behalf of the employees and not the representative union federation which, under certain conditions, can participate in the collective negotiation; cumulative number of employment agreements with different employers, specifying that, basically, no definite and generally valid answer can be given, as the position of each employer within such agreements is fundamental (if accumulation is accepted and to what extent). In conclusion, the settlement by law of these controversial aspects is suggested.

Within the study hereunder, the legal regime of joint ownership, in both its forms (common and temporary, respectively forced and perpetual) is analyzed, from a critical point of view, with special regard on the second type. The author analyzes the differences between the legal regime of these types of ownership established under the Civil Code (Law no. 287/2009, as republished) by comparison with the regulation of the Civil Code of 1864. The inconsistencies instituted under the new regulation, the illegitimate and unconstitutional nature of some of them, as well as the recent legislative amendments intervening in this respect are analyzed, all these being accompanied by examples extracted from the Romanian and foreign jurisprudence.

The interest loan is a form of the consumption loan, having as legal grounds, mainly, the provisions of the new Civil Code, art. 2167-2170. This agreement is presumed onerous, the borrower having the obligation to pay, in due time, an amount of money or other type of goods, as interest, representing the equivalent amount of using the borrowed capital. The legal regime of the agreement, including of the generating interest, in its diversity of types, forms the object of the analysis of this study, conducted both according to the common and special provisions of the new Civil Code and in the light of the special legislation, the Government Ordinance no. 13/2011.

The present study aims to examine the law principles issue based on principles of doctrinal realities under which there are principles of law, general principles of law and specific principles of various branches of law. The 1st Article of The New Civil Code is a challenge for us because this text introduces customary legal and legal doctrine among the classic sources of law. The legal doctrine is recognized by the Civil Code as a work of philosophical synthesis which it can be valued only by the jurisprudence. All in all the general principles of law- the rule of law, equity and justice, legitimacy and legal regulations- are applicable to all branches of law.

In the study hereby, the author provides a critical analysis of the various positions adopted by the U.S. Supreme Court of Justice in terms of the relationship existing between the practical need of making use of hearsay evidence in criminal proceedings and the obligation incumbent upon the legal bodies to guarantee the culprit the effective exercise of the opportunity to test via counter interrogation the reliability of such evidence. The author proposed that the analysis of judicial practice to be carried out compliant with the structure followed within the specialty works in the United States, in order to distinctly put forward each category of cause in which a conflict might arise between the admissibility of hearsay evidence and compliance with the procedural guarantees established under the law in favour of the culprit and to distinctly highlight, for each category in question, solutions framed by the U.S. Supreme Court of Justice with the view to settle the conflict arisen.

Taking our stand upon the differing regulations under Article 283 and Article 315 of Law No. 1/2011 on National Education (texts according to which, as far as the pre-university teaching staff is concerned, recovery of damages to the employing unit in consequence of patrimonial liability takes place based on a charging decision, while, as far as the higher education teaching staff is concerned, the recovery in question takes place according to the labour law, so, as a rule, by way of the employer’s proceedings before the Labour Court of jurisdiction), the author makes a series of critical approaches (pointing out that this distinction in the procedure is not justified) and, concurrently, puts forward de lege ferenda proposals.
