Starting from the specifics of the action in deficiency in the European Union law, the author pleads for the reconsideration of this action in the Romanian administrative law, as a legal means of stimulating the public administration in exercising the attributions regarding the organization of the law enforcement, so that it can become concretely applicable. In this sense, there are presented the theoretical and practical considerations that converge towards the recognition in our law as well of the defective action in accordance with the provisions of the European Union law, as well as the proposals de lege ferenda regarding the reconfiguration of the legal regime of this action. -
In this study, the author analyzes, in the light of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, the manner of observing the principle of impartiality of the Romanian judges within the national procedures regarding the establishment and functioning of the associations and foundations. Within the introductory section, general elements regarding the freedom of peaceful assembly and association are presented, according to Article 11 of the Convention. Subsequently, the relevant provisions of the Government Ordinance No 26/2000 on associations and foundations are emphasized. Their analysis, from the perspective of the civil side of Article 6 § 1 of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms,considers the minimum standard imposed on Romania by this treaty. After presenting the conventional reference provisions applicable at the level of the Member States of the Council of Europe, the author demonstrates the lack of a hermetic delimitation between the subjective impartiality and the objective impartiality of the national judge, in the analyzed hypothesis. At the same time, it is outlined the need to respect the role of neutral arbitrator of the court. Based on the rich case law of the European Court of Human Rights, the author manages to capture the shortcomings of the national regulation. This study includes both a theoretical and practical debate on the obligations and responsibility of the Romanian state, according to the Convention, and a proposal de lege ferenda, in order to respect the principle of impartiality of judges. In relation to the large number of case files registered annually by courts of first instance, regarding the establishment and functioning of associations and foundations, the study is also an alarm signal, in order to avoid the responsibility of the Romanian state, according to the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms.

Selling land outside built-up areas has a specific regulation in Romanian law, often derogatory from the general provisions applicable in the field of selling goods, as regulated by the Romanian Civil Code. This specific regulation is comprised in Law No 17/2014 concerning some regulatory measures in case of selling agricultural land located outside the built-up area and for modifying the Law No 268/2001 on privatising commercial societies which administer state owned public and private property lands, destined for agricultural needs, act which suffered a series of important modifications by the Law No 175 from 14 th August 2020. This legal modification from 2020 implements a series of important legal changes related to the holders of pre-emption rights, but also concerning the specific modalities of selling agricultural lands located outside the built-up areas, when the holder of pre-emption rights does not want to buy. Also, in each case when the court is asked to give a decision which supersedes a selling contract, the petition is admissible only if the pre-contract is legally signed, according with the Civil code provisions and all other legal requirements are fulfilled, meaning: obtaining all necessary authorisations, respecting the pre-emption right, respecting the fiscal and land registration requirements. The law also clarifies how the pre-emption procedure works and how it is controlled by the state authorities.

We are witnessing tremendous progress in the fields of biology and medicine, which consist the possibility to take human cells, tissues and organs for the purpose of their transplantation into another subject’s body, genetic engineering operations, medically assisted human procreation and many other such revolutionary techniques. All of these have proven to be two-edged weapons: on the one hand, they can be used to save lives or to help some couples who, under normal conditions, cannot procreate to give birth to the much-desired children and, on the other hand, they can turn into threats to the human genome or to the social cohesion. It has become necessary for man himself to be the object of legal protection, and, at the same time, a new category of things has emerged, namely the biological products of the human body and the elements detached therefrom, which are intended to be used for therapeutic or research purposes. Thus arose the problem of the legal qualification of these things, which also raised the issue of the existence of a relationship between the subject of law and his body. The doctrinaires are divided into two camps: one that considers that between the subject of law and his body, qualified as a thing, there is a legal relationship of property and another that claims that the human body is the person himself. The qualification of the human body as a thing, the transformation into things of some of its products and of some elements detached therefrom, as well as the possibility of capitalizing on some personality rights, such as the right to voice and the right to image, are part of a process which was called the reification of the person. It is a constantly evolving process which has already included the controversial gestation for another as well. The present study is devoted to the identification of the dangers generated by the qualification of the human body as a thing, with special regard to the gestation for another.

Un element care trebuie avut în vedere atunci când se abordează problematica disciplinei Drept parlamentar este frecvența utilizării acestui termen în literatura de specialitate, precum și în programele studiilor de licență sau masterat ale facultăților cu profil juridic, ori ale unor facultăți de științe politice, în care disciplina Dreptul parlamentar s-a studiat și, poate, se studiază încă, ca disciplină/materie de sine stătătoare. Chiar și în limbajul comun termenul de drept parlamentar este suficient de bine încetățenit, ceea ce poate da naștere unei percepții publice eronate, asupra autonomiei sale, ca ramură individuală a sistemului de drept, față de alte ramuri ale dreptului, și, în mod deosebit, față de dreptul constituțional ...

In any democratic state the activity carried out by the body of magistrates must be limited exclusively to the law and in compliance with the Constitution, because, otherwise, those judgments pronounced by ignoring these requirements, the fundamental rights and freedoms of the citizens, may lead to the commission of some judicial errors, through which the litigants suffer both from damage of material, but especially moral nature.

In ipoteza în care s-a realizat un transfer electronic al unei sume de bani ca urmare a solicitării primite din partea beneficiarului sumei respective, atunci între părți a intervenit un contract de împrumut, restituirea sumei poate fi solicitată doar pe calea unei acțiuni personale întemeiate pe respectivul contract, iar nu pe calea unei acțiuni întemeiate pe îmbogățirea fără justă cauză.

Due to the pandemic shaking the world in 2020, law enforcement and military authorities also faced the serious strain of often new or substantially larger than usual volumes of assignments. The workload of border police, public security, immigration authorities and administrative bodies has increased radically, but the Armed Forces are also strongly involved in performing the tasks. During the state of emergency and the following health crisis declared in Hungary, legislative rules differing notably from the „normal” legal order were introduced, affecting our daily lives, work, relationships, and of course, the lives and services of the officers working for the authorities subject to our study. In this document, we analyse the major changes affecting the „armed” sector within the legal framework related to the pandemic, and – due to its dogmatic interest – the hospital command system developed for the increased protection of healthcare supplies is also covered

The premises for the adoption of the Decree No 195/2020 on the establishment of the state of emergency in Romania were the evolution of the epidemiological situation in Romania and the assessment of public health risk for the next period, which indicates a massive increase in the number of people infected with SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, having regard to the fact that failure to take urgent, exceptionally social and economic measures to limit SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection among the population would have a particularly serious impact, mainly on the right to life, and, in the alternative, on the right to health of individuals

The study addresses the issue generated by the express regulation of the principle of loyalty in matters of evidence, especially from the perspective of the incidence of the sanction of exclusion of evidence in the cases where this principle has been violated. The author notes that, in general, legality and loyalty in the administration of evidence means the idea of honesty which the judicial bodies must show when constructing evidence, and the violation of these principles generates the solution of applying the sanction of exclusion of evidence. In addition, the article deals also with an aspect of these problems that has not yet received a unitary solution in the national doctrine and case law, respectively that of the existence of a conditionality between the incidence of the sanction of exclusion of evidence on the fault of judicial bodies in the illegal administration of evidence. With theoretical arguments and with examples from the practical activity of the courts, the author shows that the solutions are, on the one hand, in the sense of excluding evidence, and, on the other hand, in the sense of validating them, the court rulings being determined in these cases precisely by the finding of the good faith of the criminal investigation body.

The article addresses the problems concerning the crime of child pornography, in general, but it also includes some special emphasis on the legal implications which the conduct of the minor who makes pornographic materials with his own person, without being coerced by another person, might have. The analysis is one based on arguments from the specialized literature, but also on solutions from the judicial practice. In particular, the author proposes the recognition of existence, in the case of the crime of child pornography, in all its forms, of a special main legal object aiming at the need to respect the public order and peace, and, in particular, of a secondary object formed of the social relations referring to the protection of minors and of t he social relations whose proper development is conditioned by defending the public morality. With regard to the special issue caused by the minor’s act of producing, storing, possessing or distributing strictly in private pornographic materials of himself, the author rightfully considers that this act should not be subject to criminal liability, but rather to the psychological counselling of the minor with regard to the implications of the beginning and the development of the sexual life and, respectively, of the consequences that such deeds may have on the normal sexual development of the child.
