This article presents one of the substantial conditions required by law for the valid conclusion of marriage, that is the consent. After a brief introductory part, the conditions of consent to marriage are analyzed: the condition of existence of the consent, the condition of free expression of the consent, the condition of fully-expressed consent, the condition of public expression of the consent and the condition of direct establishment of the consent by the civil status officer. The final part is devoted to the conclusions drawn from this study. -
The Romanian Civil Code of 2009 has taken over derogatory rules with regard to the nullity of company from the matter of companies with legal personality regulated by the Law No 31/1990, as well as from the European regulations in the field. In this way, the principle of safeguarding the company has acquired a general application in the matter of all companies, regardless of their type. The exceptional rules, which were initially applied only to the companies regulated by the Law No 31/1990, outlining the idea of an atypical nullity, have been thus transferred to the Civil Code, becoming general rules applicable to all private law companies.

The importance of the crediting relations in a market economy justifies the attempts of the legislator to periodically reform the legal regime of security interests necessary for the performance of obligations. The change in Romania began in 1999 by abolishing the interdiction on movable property mortgaging (and establishment of the so-called security interest in movable property) was continued by the new Civil Code, which has introduced new instruments of obligational law, as well as rules that allow an increased dynamics of the real mortgage right. This study deals with the autonomous assignment of the real estate mortgage right, as well as with the possibility of changing the mortgage rank in the same matter. Even if the practice has not known yet a serious application of these operations, the raised issues should be approached, both for theoretical clarification and in order to detect the intention of the Romanian legislator in respect of the extent of the ancillary nature of the mortgage against the secured claim.

Potrivit prevederilor art. 6 alin. (4) C.civ., prescripțiile, decăderile și uzucapiunile începute și neîmplinite la data intrării în vigoare a legii noi sunt în întregime supuse dispozițiilor legale care le-au instituit, iar potrivit art. 204 din Legea nr. 71/2011 dispozițiile art. 2539 alin. (2) teza a II-a C.civ. se aplică și în cazul cererii de chemare în judecată sau de arbitrare introduse după intrarea în vigoare a Codului civil. Conform art. 2539 alin. (2) C.civ., prescripția nu este întreruptă dacă cel care a făcut cererea de chemare în judecată sau de arbitrare ori de intervenție în procedura insolvenței sau a urmăririi silite a renunțat la ea, nici dacă cererea a fost respinsă, anulată ori s-a perimat printr-o hotărâre rămasă definitivă. Cu toate acestea, dacă reclamantul, în termen de 6 luni de la data când hotărârea de respingere sau de anulare a rămas definitivă, introduce o nouă cerere, prescripția este considerată întreruptă prin cererea de chemare în judecată sau de arbitrare precedentă, cu condiția însă ca noua cerere să fie admisă. -
Acquiring of the status of full member in the European Union by Romania has also generated the allocation towards Romania of European funds through financing contracts for the purpose of achieving projects of national interest.

The penal clause gives the advantage of leaving to the parties, and not to the law court, to fix the amount representing compensation for the damage incurred, this way the parties being informed, from the time of conclusion of contract, on what and how much the costs would be if they fail to fulfil the obligations assumed, being, from this point of view, a mechanism not only of defense against the consequences of a damaging non-performance, but also of constraint, both legal and moral, not allowing the parties to hope that, maybe, they will not pay or will pay much less for „breaking” the contract. This study examines the functions of the penal clause, namely the function of guarantee of performance of obligations, the function of mobilization of the debtor to perform its obligations, the sanctioning function and the compensatory function. At the same time, the study analyzes the consensual, incidental, sanctioning and reparative nature of the penal clause, as well as the legal nature of this type of clause.

In this study, by analyzing the legislation in force concerning the remuneration of the budgetary staff paid from public funds, including the special legislation referring to the remuneration of the staff from public education, the author reaches the conclusion that, until the adoption of some new legal provisions (regulations) on this matter, the auxiliary teaching staff from (university and pre-university) public education, which, until 31 December 2009, legally benefited by a wage additional payment for dangerous or harmful conditions, is entitled to continue to receive this additional payment, if the activity is further carried on under the same conditions (dangerous/harmful).

Pursuant to Article 65 (1) of the (Romanian) Labour Code, the dismissal may occur for reasons not related to the employee in case the workplace held by the employee has been dissolved, for one or more reasons not related to the employee, and paragraph (2) of the text stipulates that the dissolution of the workplace must be effective and must have a real and serious cause. In this study, the author exhaustively examines the diverging opinions (solutions) in the doctrine and the case-law from Romania concerning the meaning and the scope of Article 65 (2) of the Labour Code and, then, firmly considers that, in the event of litigations, the law courts are obliged to examine not only the formallegal aspects of the measure of dismissal in the given situation, but also the opportunity of such measure, therefore, in other terms, the reality and the seriousness of dismissal (by the employer) for the reason of dissolution of the workplace held by the employee. -
Questioned by an alleged absence of their own method and investigation field, legal science and research are fully legitimised in reality. Legal doctrine research deals with formal sources of law, and results in deduction and explanation of legal rules. Legal scientific research deals with legal rules in force from a formal point of view and refers to the legitimation (delegitimation) of legal rules of substantial law; its method is the deduction of general principles of law as a specific normative subsystem within the social system and the relation of the legal rules to these principles.

The radical reformation of the criminal proceedings meant also the establishment of new legal institutions. One of them is the preliminary chamber, inspired by the Anglo-Saxon law systems, and by the continental law system. Conceived as a distinct phase of criminal proceedings, the preliminary verification raises real problems of constitutionality, being unable to fit into the mechanism of the judicial bodies stated in the Fundamental Law. In so far as it takes over functions of the judges and it excludes from debates the main subjects of criminal proceedings, it is also contrary to the requirements of the ECHR on the principles of equality of arms and equity.

For the first time in the Romanian legislation, the new Civil Code (Article 1368) expressly regulates the subsidiary obligation to reimburse the victim, in the sense that „lack of discernment does not exempt the author of the damage from paying a reimbursement to the victim whenever the liability of the person who, according to the law, had the duty to supervise such person can not be engaged” (the author of the damage). In this study there are successively examined: aspects of comparative law in the matter; the position of the Romanian doctrine and of the case-law on the issue in question; the quality of the liable person [for the purpose of Article 1368 (1) of the Civil Code]; the tort civil liability of the person who lacks discernment; the legal basis of the subsidiary liability of the person who lacks discernment; final de lege ferenda proposals in order to improve Article 1368 (1) of the Civil Code.

Pentru motivele pe care le vom detalia în continuare, ne vom pronunța de la început în legătură cu problemele anunțate în titlu și vom afirma că este necesară revizuirea Constituției, dar, deocamdată, nu este oportună. Este necesară deoarece exercitarea puterii politico-etatice pe baza Constituției, pe parcursul a mai bine de 22 de ani, a întâmpinat dificultăți determinate de modul laconic sau deficitar de reglementare care, la rândul său, a condus la interpretarea diferită, uneori contrară, a unor reguli constituționale de către principalii actori politici, de contradicția dintre unele texte constituționale, de lipsa existenței unor principii clar formulate privind organizarea și exercitarea puterii politice, de căderea în desuetudine a unor reguli sau principii juridice înscrise în legea fundamentală, de caracterul confuz al unor reglementări, de integrarea României în Uniunea Europeană și consecințele acestui fapt pe planul exercitării puterii etc.
