Damages can be assessed by the court, by law or by the willful agreement of parties. This study analyzes the notion of damages, the conditions for awarding damages, as well as their assessment by the court and their legal assessment. The purpose of assessment of damages incurred by the creditor is that of reinstating the creditor to the situation in which it would have been found, if the debtor had voluntarily performed the obligations assumed by concluding the contract. Judicial assessment of damages is made by judgment and involves the judge’s examination of all the conditions for undertaking contractual liability, particularly with regard to the prejudice caused to the creditor by the debtor’s non-performance of obligations. Legal assessment of damages occurs in the cases regulated by Articles 1535 and 1536 of the new Civil Code and falls within the scope of obligations that have as object the service of granting a sum of money, to which the legislator also adds the case of obligations to do, which can be assessed in money.

Mediation is governed by Law No 192/2006. In criminal matters, mediation is a restorative practice designed to solve the conflict between the parties involved. For a limited number of offences a criminal mediation agreement has the effect of preventing the initiation of criminal prosecution or ending criminal proceedings. This does not mean that parties may come to an agreement on the criminal aspects of the criminal proceedings as the legislator may seem to let us to believe. The only aspect on which an agreement may be reached concerns withdrawal of a prior complaint or reconciliation of parties in case of certain offences; these are impediments distinctively regulated in the mediation agreement. As a matter of fact, the consensus between parties in criminal proceedings, contained in the mediation agreement, exceeds the limits imposed by what is usually considered as the criminal aspect and the civil aspect of those proceedings. Through their will, parties may limit themselves to an agreement only on civil claims within criminal proceedings.

Verificarea respectării normelor de competență se realizează atât de instanța învestită cu judecarea litigiului, la cererea părților sau din oficiu, cât și pe calea controlului judiciar, de către instanțele superioare învestite cu judecarea căilor de atac. În acest din urmă caz, hotărârea instanței de control judiciar prin care se statuează cu privire la competența unei instanțe de a soluționa litigiul este obligatorie, atât timp cât aceasta este irevocabilă.

Știința juridică românească din ultimii 60 de ani este marcată major de activitatea desfășurată de Institutul de Cercetări Juridice al Academiei Române (în continuare denumit ICJ sau Institutul).

Barasch, Petre Anca, Yolanda Eminescu ș.a.
