Confusing subject of study for a jurist, humanity is an evasive notion because it manifests itself in the individual but is, at the same time, external to it; it claims universality but the way each one looks at is as specific as each one. Myth or legal symbol, „humanity” is a term with variable content, both in the common and the legal language, because, at the same time, it represents the human essence, the goodness but also the race, the human species. The various meanings are indissolubly linked because they are intertwined, so that the „individual” humanity, the one that each individual carries himself, is inseparable from the „collective” humanity, the human community. This together construction results from legal instruments which reflect the ambivalence of the concept, the crime against humanity is, at the same time, a crime against the human essence and a crime against the human race, as its constituent elements demonstrate. Through time, humanity has born and fed contradictory legal discourses, so in international law it is more than a „concept slogan”, because its influence is tangible, but nonetheless, humanity has not simplified the international legal order but has made it even more complex. -
In the context of the express consecration of the protection of non-patrimonial rights also for the legal persons, according to Article 257 of the Civil Code, it becomes useful to analyze the evolution of the practice in the matter of repairing the non-patrimonial damage caused to the legal persons. Also, the historical perspective of the notion of moral damages, the procedural means and the relevant jurisprudence of the ECHR allow us to place this issue today, concluding that the principles of the tort civil liability apply to each case, depending on the proven factual evidence, but also on the diversity of the legal persons, on the variety of their objectives.

The expertise, object of analysis of the present article, constitutes an evidence whose administration is frequently encountered in the judicial practice in civil matters, being imposed in order to clarify some factual circumstances through the specialized contribution of an expert. Thanks to its high degree of precision in determining the factual circumstances of the litigious situation, the expertise is one of the most edifying evidence administered in a trial, being necessary, as such, a thorough knowledge of its legal regime, but also of the issues that envisage the specialization of the expert appointed to carry out the expertise and set its objectives.

Starting from the idea that the purpose of legislation, of law in general is to defend the human being by preventing, discovering and combating any dangers that could affect or influence it, as well as from current realities that have changed and continue to change the normal functioning of the social system, we carried out this study in the hope that the opinions and solutions expressed could be taken into account by the legislator in the event of amending the Criminal Code as regards the crimes related to sexual life. Therefore, the analysis, opinions and proposals formulated took into account the normative framework in Romania in the matter of crimes regarding the protection of freedom and sexual integrity of the person, by reference to the criminal legislation in force, making reference also to certain aspects existing in the previous one, as well as by reference to the provisions of the international conventions to which our country is a party. In this paper we also consider the fact that the current national criminal law, although subject to amendments, remains incomplete and must be amended and supplemented so as to comply with the minimum mandatory provisions of Directive 2011/92/EU to ensure the protection of minors against any form of sexual abuse.

Executarea pedepsei închisorii se face în locuri de detenție special amenajate, pentru a se asigura atât rolul sancționator al pedepsei, cât mai ales, cel educativ, apt să conducă la reeducarea celor condamnați. Din nefericire, condițiile degradante de detenție din multe penitenciare românești au fost ignorate de puterile legiuitoare și executivă din România. Deși este o problemă de zeci de ani, mare parte a societății civile a rămas în pasivitate sub acest aspect, fapt ce, poate, oglindește nepăsarea multor români față de modul de executare a pedepselor penale, privative de libertate.

În cauza dedusă judecății apelantul a susținut că nu se justifică măsura evacuării sale din locuință, întrucât această măsură îl împiedică să participe la anumite evenimente din viața fiicei sale și să păstreze relațiile personale cu aceasta. Însă atât timp cât aceste relații nu au fost interzise de către o instanță judecătorească, iar autoritatea părintească este exercitată în continuare, în comun, de către ambii părinți, în mod egal, conform art. 503 alin. (1) C.civ., tatăl apelant nu este afectat în exercitarea drepturilor și obligațiilor părintești, decât în mică parte, prin măsura evacuării din locuința familiei, întrucât există multe alte modalități pe care le are la dispoziție pentru menținerea relațiilor cu minora, chiar și în această perioadă în care este instituită starea de urgență. (Tribunalul Galați, Decizia civilă nr. 229 din 27 aprilie 2020, definitivă).

Potrivit prevederilor art. 60 alin. (1) lit. c) din Codul muncii și art. 21 alin. (1) lit. a) din Ordonanța de urgență a Guvernului nr. 96/2003, interdicția temporară de concediere a salariatei gravide se aplică numai în situația în care angajatorul avea cunoștință la data emiterii deciziei de concediere despre starea de graviditate a salariatei concediate. Deși art. 272 din Codul muncii prevede că sarcina probei în litigiile de muncă revine angajatorului, dovada faptului pozitiv al informării prealabile cade în sarcina salariatei gravide care contestă faptul negativ invocat de angajator că nu a luat cunoștință de starea de graviditate anterior concedierii.

În conformitate cu prevederile art. 4 alin. (6) din Legea nr. 193/20001 și cele ale art. 4 alin. (2) din Directiva 93/13/CEE, aprecierea caracterului abuziv al unei clauze nu privește definirea obiectului contractului în măsura în care respectivele clauze sunt exprimate în mod clar și inteligibil. În acord cu principiul interpretării conforme statuat la nivelul dreptului european, prevederile actului normativ național prin care sunt transpuse în dreptul intern dispozițiile dintr-o directivă trebuie interpretate, inclusiv în litigiile care opun doi particulari, potrivit prevederilor directivei transpuse, iar nu în sens contrar
