The Infra-Constitutionality of European Law in Romania and the Challenges of the Romanian Constitutional Culture
2016
This article deals with European Law as a legal transplant facing the Romanian constitutional culture, in the context of constitutionally limiting the Romanian State’s sovereignty as a member of the EU. Consequently, the reception of the EU law into the Romanian constitutional system (and culture) is determined by two paradoxically divergent Romanian legal-cultural traits: on the one hand, the necessity (bearing accents of national legal pride) to cherish and fructify the Romanian legal (constitutional) traditions, reified, as I shall denominate, as ‘the adapted Romanian law’, and stipulated in the 2003 amended Constitution as a ‘tradition firewall’ / ecran de traditionalite. On the other h…
Democratic Legitimacy and the Court of Justice of the European Union
2016
The chapter on democratic legitimacy and the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) focuses on whether the CJEU through judicial activism may be claimed to have established its jurisprudence beyond the bounds of democratic legitimacy. Judicial activism has to a large extent been found in cases concerning the prerogatives of the CJEU, while in relation to other issues, such as the application of fundamental rights, the CJEU has demonstrated political awareness in its use of judicial activism, which however has diminished legal certainty. In general the CJEU has acted within the bounds of democratic legitimacy, but further clarification of its jurisprudence in controversial areas may b…
Harmonization of Insurance Supervisory Law
2015
This chapter addresses the fundamental issue of what degree of harmonization applies in the Solvency II system. Distinguishing among the several degrees of harmonization—minimum harmonization, maximum harmonization, and full harmonization—leads to the conclusion that the Solvency II Directive has full harmonization as its objective. This has two important ramifications: First, the Solvency II Directive requires that any insurance supervisory regime implementation by the respective national legislators must completely align with the European insurance supervisory regime. Second, a system of full harmonization prohibits national legislators from unilaterally enacting additional measures not p…
A Victim of a Road Traffic Accident Not Fastened by the Seat Belt and the EU Motor Insurance Law: CJEU Judgment in Vítor Hugo Marques Almeida
2013
This case note relates to the recent judgement (23 October 2012) by the Court of Justice of the European Union in the case No C-300/10 concerning interrelation of the European Union motor insurance law and the national civil liability regulation. As the civil liability arising from motor traffic accidents is not approximated by the European Union law, its regulation falls within the national law. Yet, application of the national civil liability law shall not undermine the obligation to provide insurance coverage for victims of road traffic accidents. The discussed case concerns a situation when a victim who was not fastened by a seat belt at the moment of a motor traffic accident was injure…
Medico-legal study of death in custody by excited delirium. A case report
2014
En este artículo exponemos los resultados de la autopsia de un varón joven que falleció en el hospital por un cuadro de delirium agitado. Es un síndrome caracterizado generalmente por agitación psicomotriz, agresividad y puede producir muerte súbita, en ocasiones durante la aplicación de métodos de contención mecánica por los Cuerpos de Seguridad del Estado o personal sanitario. Está típicamente asociado al consumo de drogas de abuso, como la cocaína. En estos casos, estará incluida en el grupo de muertes en custodia, que es aquella que se produce cuando la víctima se encuentra privada de libertad. Tiene una indudable repercusión médico legal, puesto que se considera prototipo de muerte sos…
Determinants of Chairman Compensation
2011
This study examines determinants of chairman compensation in a supervisory board setting and, specifically, the relationship between chairman and CEO compensation. Using a sample of publicly listed firms in Sweden, the study indicates that chairman compensation – despite its fixed nature – is reflective of firm performance via a positive relationship to CEO compensation. As CEO compensation is set before chairman compensation, we argue that the chairman may be inclined to conspire with the CEO in earnings management efforts at the expense of monitoring on behalf of investors. Supporting our argument, we find evidence that the gap between chairman and CEO compensation is less at firms where …

Noziedzīgi iegūtu līdzekļu legalizēšanas un terorisma finansēšanas novēršana Eiropas Savienībā attiecībā uz neatkarīgo juridisko profesiju pārstāvjiem
2020
Noziedzīgi iegūtu līdzekļu legalizācijas novēršana un terorisma finansēšanas joma ir aktuāla gan starptautiskā līmenī, gan Latvijā, gan Eiropas Savienībā, jo pieaugot globalizācijai pieaug arī iespējas līdzekļiem brīvi pārvietoties globālās finanšu sistēmas ietvaros. Trīsdesmit gadu laikā tā ir ievērojami attīstījusies un paplašinājusies. Vieni no šīs jomas atbildīgajiem subjektiem ir arī neatkarīgo juridisko profesiju pārstāvji, lai arī primāri tas ir attiecināts uz kredītiestādēm un finanšu institūcijām. Darbs aplūko šīs jomas attīstību un neatkarīgo juridisko profesiju lomu tajā ES ietvaros, identificējot problēmjautājumus, kurus vajadzētu risināt, turpinot to attīstīt un uzlabot.
