The author analyses some specific features of the claim for compensation brought by private persons injured by unlawful administrative acts of authority or by public authorities’ refusal to solve claims concerning rights and legitimate interests of citizens. The claim for compensation has an accessory and subsidiary character in relation to the main claim for the annulment of the administrative act of authority, the repair of the damage being conditioned by the annulment of the act or by the obligation of the public authority to solve the claim of the private person. The study points out that the accessoriality relationship between the claim for compensation and the main claim bears consequences with regard to the jurisdiction of administrative courts.

Company contract has been a complex issue under the Civil Code of 1864 and the Commercial Code of 1887, and continues to be so under the Romanian Civil Code of 2009. Since rules pertaining to company contract under previous statutes became obsolete and ill-adapted to practical needs and realities, an update was severely necessary in order to tune it with the alert pace of modern legal relations and EU norms. This paper presents the legal definition of company contract under the new Romanian Civil Code, with its advantages and disadvantages, which distinguish it from other types of contracts. Given the monistic approach of the new Civil Code, presently the contract of company is the common law of company law, Articles 1881–1948 of the Civil Code being subsidiarily applied to all companies enumerated by Article 1888 of the Civil Code. In this context, this study analyses the special requirements of Law No 31/1990, considered as a special rule in relation to the general provisions of the Civil Code.

This paper presents the meaning of the term „assets” in Article 535 of the Civil Code and, at the same time, highlights its incorrect use in some of the other texts of the Civil Code and other statutory instruments, in disagreement with the new terminological option. Likewise, it raises a discussion on the lack, within the Civil Code, of a minimum of general rules dedicated to „common assets”, irrespective of their nature, quality of holders and source of community. Finally, following the presentation of negative consequences of the reported shortcomings, some legal remedies are proposed.

The new regulation pertaining to business administration in the new Romanian Civil Code, much more detailed than the previous one, springs from the Civil Code of Québec. In Québec, the relevant legal framework provides for an original configuration of this source of obligations, imposing on it the condition of opportunity of the administration actions initiated by the administrator. Subject to this regulation are also the effects of inopportune administration, which aims at restoring the advantage brought to the person administered, without stating the legal grounds of such obligation, aspect which triggers questions to which this paper intends to answer, visiting, among others, other codification proposals on the law of obligations and relevant doctrine in this matter. At the same time, a theoretical definition is laid down for business administration, more nuanced than those elaborated after the new Romanian Civil Code has taken effect, definition which tends to be closer to the meaning of the new normative provisions.

The new Romanian Civil Procedure Code has the indisputable merit of rebalancing the relationship between parties and courts, as well as dynamising the settlement of civil disputes. From both these perspectives, provisions of Article 200 of the Civil Procedure Code, pertaining to the check and regularisation of application for summons, mark a specific stage of solving some of the „prior” issues. Some of these not only notable but even surprising provisions will be further discussed.

Ever since the date of its publication in the Official Gazette of Romania, Part I, the Law No 241/2005 has become a highly debated law in the doctrine, many of its articles underlying inhomogeneous judicial decisions. Article 10 of the above-mentioned Law was one of the Articles which excelled by its lack of predictability, a fact which lead to raising a large number of pleas of unconstitutionality. Over time, its applicability has received some clarifications however, even today, some aspects still raise controversies and continue to lead to an inhomogeneous judicial practice. For this reason, the author believes that the intervention of the High Court of Cassation and Justice would be more than welcome.
