The study presented hereafter stands for a supplementation to the doctrine’s existing analysis in relation to the legal provisions regarding the publishing agreement comprised in the Law no. 8/1996 on intellectual property and its correlative rights. Summarizing the article’s content, the author has performed a thorough analysis of the Romanian, and European case law with a special interest for the French jurisprudence. As a starting point for the study, the author considered the high frequency use of the publishing agreement aimed at capitalizing the patrimonial rights related to intellectual property. The author has identified, and examined several relevant aspects related to the publishing agreement’s field of application, marking the limits in relation to other civil agreements, substantiating comprehensively the legal characteristics of this type of agreement by analyzing its scope, its content, its effects, its means of cessation from the point of view of the new civil code (Law no. 287/2009). -
The interpretative solution provided by the High Court of Cassation and Justice – Panel for the settlement of some matters of criminal law by the operative part of the Decision No 15/2018, according to which „after the transfer of the person convicted by the foreign judicial authorities, in order to continue the execution of the punishment in Romania, the length of the punishment considered by the state of conviction as executed on the basis of the performed work and of good conduct, granted as benefit in favour of the convicted person, by the foreign judicial authority, must not be deducted from the punishment which is executed in Romania”, has lost its validity and binding effect both as a result of delivery of the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union – Grand Chamber of 8 November 2016 in the Case C-554/14 and as a result of the entry into force of the amendments brought to the provisions of Article 144 (1) of the Law No 302/2004 by the Law No 236/2017. -

The study presented by the author is a subject matter of acute timeliness, especially from the perspective of the fact that the immovable assets do not fall within the scope of some unique rules on their sale, since there are specific legal provisions in relation to different categories of immovable assets and the place where these are located. The paper analyzes the contract of sale of different categories of real estates, such as the lands, the buildings and related land, the lands located inside built-up area, the agricultural land located outside built-up area, as well as the forestry lands, emphasizing the particularities of each type of sale. A special place within the study is occupied by the examination of the legal rules applicable to the sale of the lands located outside built-up area, the conditions in which such real estates can be acquired through sale, the persons who may act as buyers, including the foreigners, the stateless persons and the legal persons of the nationality of other state than Romania. Likewise, there are emphasized the specific phases of exercising the pre-emption right of the co-owners, lessees, neighbouring owners and of the state in case of the sale of the types of real estates analyzed, as well as the sanctions applicable in case of the violation of the rules for the exercise of the pre-emption right in this matter. The study outlines the field of action of the future research, based on the legal doctrinal opinions expressed in the researched space and on the personal views of the author, wishing to form a bridgehead for further developments. -
This study deals with the sale with repurchase option, a variety of sale of a distinctive specific nature, which may be sometimes confused with other types of contracts, of different legal nature. The paper analyzes how it is regulated the sale with repurchase pact in the Civil Code of 1864, highlighting the circumstance according to which the previous civil regulation did not contain clear and imperative legal norms that could have been able to be protect the public order interests, for the purposes of granting real legal guarantees for their defence before the sale with repurchase pact.

There have been noticed interesting legal issues related to the terminology used by the legislator in the current regulation regarding the right of repurchase option, a right analysed in a comprehensive manner, in its stages of emergence, exercise, taking effects, transmission and extinction. -

Legal circulation of lands involved the need to adopt a law. Law No 17/2014 on the sale of agricultural lands from unincorporated areas is problematic, at least as it regards the conditions for acquiring lands and property rights in the way of establishing the pre-emption right. -
With Marice Hauriou, in France, public law goes into the modern age. By his style, by the number and complexity of the themes he approached as well as by their exhaustiveness, this founding father of French administrative law – as we know it today – leaves behind a legal literature that, up to him, has only been able to provide sterile and purely descriptive commentaries of normative acts, modest works belonging to those that the modern history of public law labelled as of glossary or repertory writers. Hauriou is the one who, for the first time in the history of French administrative law, confers it the terminological and ideological substance for which it is highly appreciated by public law specialists today. Among the major themes that Professor Hauriou has approached in his work, the following are still outstanding, due to the accuracy and relevance of the analyses surrounding them, such as: – the administrative regime and the administrative function; – the institution and the institutional phenomenon; – the legal persons of public law, the public establishments and the establishments of public utility; – the public administration; – the public interest and the administrative management; – the public service; – the civil service and the civil servant; – the public property and the public domain; – the self-executing decisions or the unilateral administrative act; the administrative contract; – the administrative litigations; – the acts of government; – the discretionary power of the public administration; – the patrimonial liability for the public administration’s illicit acts; – the administrative police. Most of these themes have been systematically addressed by Hauriou, either by reference to the ideological foundation represented by the „public power”, or in relation to the notion of corporate institution, or in connection with the fact that administrative law groups rules with a derogatory nature from the rules of civil law, and legal persons under public law called upon to carry out the administrative function of the State are endowed with exorbitant prerogatives, the exercice of their duties being likely to result in a restriction of the freedom or the property of individuals. Surely, this risk – far from being totally eliminated – can be diminished, but only when individuals have effective tools to fight against abuses by executive authorities. According to Hauriou, an important place among these instruments is occupied by the so-called judicial review on abuse of power, a type of judicial action aiming at the annulment of unlawful administrative acts. -
