Weakening Forensic Science in Spain: From Expert Evidence to Documentary Evidence*
2012
An amendment in 2002 to the Spanish Code of Criminal Procedure converted into documentary evidence the expert reports prepared by official laboratories aimed at determining the nature, weight, and purity of seized drugs. In most cases, experts are spared from appearance before the courts. This is likely to be extended to other forensic fields. After an overview of criminalistic identification in current forensic science, the objectivity and reliability concepts used by jurists and scientists are considered by comparing the paradigm of individualization with that of likelihood. Subsequently, a detailed critical study is made on the above-mentioned Spanish legal reform, and a comparison is ma…
Right to a court in democratic state ruled by law
2019
W artykule omówiono prawo do sądu w demokratycznym państwie prawnym, które stanowi gwarancję sądowej ochrony praw człowieka przed ich naruszeniem przez organy władzy publicznej. Spełnia ono dwie funkcje: po pierwsze, chroni podmiotowe prawo jednostki i wiąże wszystkie władze publiczne w zakresie ich działania w podporządkowaniu Konstytucji; po drugie, tworzy charakterystyczny system powiązania indywidualnego statusu jednostki i obiektywnego porządku prawnego, wobec tego jest współcześnie traktowane jako składnik demokratycznego państwa prawnego. Konstytucyjne ujęcie prawa do sądu może być rozpatrywane w dwóch znaczeniach: 1) jako zasada prawa konstytucyjnego; 2) jako prawo podmiotowe jednos…
La genitorialita` procreativa nella coppia omoaffettiva (femminile). Riflessioni a margine di Corte cost. n. 221/2019
2020
Il contributo esamina criticamente la sentenza della Corte costituzionale n. 221 del 2019, che ha affermato la legittimità costituzionale delle previsioni della legge 19 febbraio 2004, n. n. 40, che vietano l’accesso alle tecniche di procreazione medicalmente assistita alle coppie dello stesso sesso. Sulla base di una lettura evolutiva delle regole e dei principî costituzionali e convenzionali implicati, il saggio giunge a una diversa soluzione interpretativa, sostenendo la riconoscibilità del diritto alla genitorialità procreativa degli individui ad orientamento omoaffettivo e la sua compatibilità con l’interesse della prole a nascere e a crescere in un nucleo familiare idoneo ad assicurar…

La Carta sociale europea come parametro interposto nella recente giurisprudenza costituzionale: novità e questioni aperte
2019
In two judgments delivered in 2018 (No. 120 and No. 194), the Constitutional Court for the first time referred to provisions of the European Social Charter as an interposed norm in the constitutional review of primary laws. The two judgments, however, leave two questions open. First, in judgment No. 120, the Court recognizes taht the European Social Charter may complement Article 117, paragraph 1, of the Constitution, as it constitutes a natural integration of the European Conventionof Human Rights on the social level, which in fact distinguishes it from "ordinary" international agreements. In its subsequent judgment No. 194, on the other hand, the Court speaks of treaties with constitution…

La responsabilità dirigenziale al cospetto del giudice ordinario
2021
This paper makes a case for the “contractual-publicist” nature of the managers’ liability regime, although this matter lies within the scope of civil courts’ jurisdiction. Even though the law assigns civil courts the role in deciding disputes regarding potential infringement of public managers claims, these should be considered legitimate expectations (public law) and not rights (civil law). Except for the recovery of the executive jurisdiction of the administrative court, if the administration refuses to fulfil the civil judgment and the public manager spontaneously appeals for compliance, rather than (or together with) the civil one of forced execution.
Normativa urbanistica e contratto preliminare
2015
The following article addresses the critical and controversial question concerning the invalidity of the transfer of immovable property not complying with urban planning regulation and the implication of this invalidity in the specific context of the preliminary contract. The paper comments an innovative and recent ruling of the Italian Supreme Court that proposes a crucial change in comparison with the previous decisions made in this matter. The most relevant aspect of the new Supreme Court's guideline, which makes this judgment a leading case, concerns the extension to preliminary contracts of nullity deriving from the conflict with urban planning regulations. This is an important revirem…
The Ivorian Constitutional Council and the supremacy of the Constitution. : study in light of his decisions and opinions
2018
Ivorian constitutional justice, in its current form, is the fruit of the democratization movement launched on the continent from the 1990s. But if elsewhere the exercise of constitutional review immediately became an essential instrument in the effectiveness of the Constitution and the advent of the rule of law, in Côte d'Ivoire, the guarantee of the the Constitution’s supremacy has evolved continuously at an oscillatory rhythm. The constitutionality check is first expressed through a strategy of small steps. The constitutional judge's choice of a narrow interpretation of his attributions produces a daring case law geared towards legitimizing the executive power and its governance. Subseque…
