Given that the new General Data Protection Regulation has influenced most of the industrial sectors, new challenges in life science area have also been generated, particularly those regarding the effective protection of the personal data of the patients – subjects to clinical trials. The new changes focus mainly on how data and the rights of the data subjects are perceived by these persons, as well as the controllers and processors. This study aims to identify and determine the impact of this regulation on clinical trials and patient engagement policies, having also into consideration the derogations from the rights of data subjects for the purpose of scientific research. Also, we seek to define concepts such as sensitive data, health data, clinical trial data, the obtained results following the clinical trials, data processing, as well as notions related to the parties involved – either the patients or CROs (contract research organizations) understood through the meaning of the terms of natural person or controller, processor, recipient respectively. We want to clarify to what extent the clinical trials can be included in the scientific research that the Regulation refers to and whether its application in this area makes a distinction between the goals of the research: either the one of profit-making or the one of developing the medical knowledge. -

The paper aims to bring some clarifications regarding the typicality as an essential feature of the offence, as it is reflected in Article 15 of the Criminal Code. In fact, the paper begins by noticing that the typicality or providing the deed in the criminal law was the first of the essential features of the offence identified by the representatives of the Classical School. At the same time, it notes that, if initially typicality included only the objective requirements of the offence, now it is admitted to have a wider content, including both objective and subjective elements, as well as anti-judiciality elements. Through his study, the author brings some doctrinal explanations about the notion of typicality.

Thus, the advertising system based on land registries has in its content, in addition to its specificity, which gives it superiority in relation to the former system of advertising through registers of transcriptions-inscriptions and civil actions regulated in order to satisfy this superiority and which are intended to facilitate the civil legal circuit within that system. Likewise, the study also analyzes the correlation of these actions with the civil action in performing a sale and purchase preliminary contract, identifying the specificity of the correlation in different historical periods.

The study aims to analyze the particularities of the cases of resolution of the maintenance contract, a contract that has its own, express regulation in the new Civil Code, as novelty. Some of these cases of resolution are expressly indicated in Article 2263 of the new Civil Code, and for other cases reference is made to the application of express provisions specific to the life annuity contract. As novelty, the new Civil Code (Article 2255) provides for the conclusion of the maintenance contract in authentic form, under the sanction of absolute nullity, a modification with implications on the resolution of the contracts because the conditions of execution will be clearer. The study analyzes the cases of resolution, which are the specific aspects and effects of the resolution of the maintenance contract. The analysis of the cases of resolution of the maintenance contract is made by identifying some relations and delimitations against the life annuity contract. The article examines whether the resolution is a cause of cessation of the contract or a sanction for the non-performance of the contract without justification, the last solution being the suitable one.

This study is dedicated to the Special Part of the Criminal Procedure Code, in terms of the amendments brought by Law No. 202/2010, with reference to criminal prosecution, judgment on the merits, ordinary and extraordinary means of challenge, enforcement decisions or special judgment procedures. The study contains equally an analysis of the new regulations introduced in the field of recourse in the interest of the law. The text comments concerning the referral of the case to another Prosecutor’ Office, the information of the next hearing date, the judgment in case of admittance of guilt, the limits of the recourse judgment, the procedure in case of review can be indicated as examples. For an easier understanding of the study, the sequence of the analyzed legal regulations complies with both the structure of the Criminal Procedure Code, and with the chronology of the texts of the amending laws. Otherwise, given the fact that the work is especially addressing practitioners in criminal law and in criminal procedural law and given the fact that, for reasons of economy of the publishing space, the amended or amending texts were only rarely and partially reproduced, authors believe that the latter should be concomitantly available for a complete understanding of the study. With special reference to the contents of the second part of the study, emphasis needs to be placed on the fact that the work tried to highlight both the progressive and positively innovating provisions in the criminal procedure, and certain errors, non-compliances or legislative omissions or potential lack of correlation with the constitutional provisions.

Taking into consideration that this is a matter in which there are serious controversies in the doctrine and multiple contradictory solutions in the legal practice, this feature (unity or plurality of passive subjects) should not be mentioned as a constitutive feature of the continued crime, thus suggesting the idea that the solution had the adhesion of the entire doctrine. In this respect, the solution of the criminal law in force, which defines continued crime without adding the mentioned feature, seems fairer to us than the solution provided by the new Criminal Code.
