Czy wniesienie powództwa oczywiście bezzasadnego w rozumieniu art. 1911 k.p.c. przerywa bieg przedawnienia?
2021
Prawodawca Ustawą z dnia 4 lipca 2019 r. o zmianie ustawy – Kodeks postępowania cywilnego oraz niektórych innych ustaw wprowadził do polskiej procedury cywilnej m.in. instytucję oddalenia powództwa jako oczywiście bezzasadnego (art. 1911 k.p.c.). Celem niniejszego artykułu jest podjęcie próby odpowiedzi na pytanie: czy wniesienie powództwa oczywiście bezzasadnego w rozumieniu art. 1911 k.p.c. przerywa bieg przedawnienia? Rozważania nad tym zagadnieniem prowadzą do wniosku, że odpowiedź na to pytanie powinna być negatywna
Note a margine dell’ordinanza della Corte costituzionale sul caso Taricco: l’effetto delle norme dei trattati istitutivi dell’UE sulla legge penale s…
2017
The present paper deals with the decision of the Italian Constitutional Court to refer a preliminary ruling to the European Court of Justice on the well-known case "Taricco". The latter, in 2015, stated that the Italian law on statute of limitations was inconsistent with the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, having regard to the obligation upon Member States, stemming from art. 325 TFUE. The Constitutional Court found that such an interpretation of the afore mentioned norm could bring to a violation of the rule of law in criminal matters, with particular regard to the prohibition of retroactive application of criminal law "in peius", intended as a fundamental principle of the…
Saskaņotas darbības izpratne Latvijā.
2018
Šajā darbā autors apskatīs saskaņotu darbību, kas ir viens no aizliegtu vienošanos veidiem, institūtu un piemērošanas praksi gan Eiropas Savienības, gan Latvijas kontekstā. Atšķirībā no konkurenci ierobežojošiem formalizētiem līgumiem un tirgus dalībnieku apvienību pieņemtiem lēmumiem, saskaņotas darbības aptver plašu sadarbības formu loku, tādēļ saskaņotu darbību pārkāpumu izskatīšanā liela loma ir judikatūrai. Latvijā visbiežāk saskaņotas darbības tirgus dalībnieku starpā ir konstatējamas publiskajos iepirkumos, kur pretendenti apmainās ar informāciju par plānoto dalību iepirkumos, kā arī saskaņo piedāvājumus, vienojoties, kurš no viņiem uzvarēs. Darbā tiks aprakstītas pazīmes, kuras liec…
Administratīvo pārkāpumu noilgums
2017
Bakalaura darbā “Administratīvo pārkāpumu noilgums” autore pēta Latvijā pastāvošo noilguma institūta normatīvo regulējumu. Izvēlētā darba temata aktualitāte ir saistīta ar to, ka Latvijā šis institūts ir samērā maz pētīts. Kaut gan paredz pamatu, lai atbrīvotu personu no atbildības. Tātad pastāv pamatota nepieciešamība rast izpratni par noilguma institūta būtību un piemērošanas regulējuma īpatnībām. Tādēļ pētāmajā darbā tika analizēta tiesu prakse, doktrīna un atsevišķu autoru viedoklis. Tostarp darba izstrādāšanas gaitā autore konstatēja atsevišķus ar noilguma regulējuma piemērošanu saistītus problēmjautājumus, kuriem tika piedāvāts atrisinājums.
Kin selection in interactions between gametes: Gamete competition, gamete limitation, and sex allocation
2023
Kin selection on one hand, and gamete interactions in post-ejaculatory sexual selection on the other are two major research themes that have risen to prominence over the past half century and have simultaneously developed into central fields of research in evolutionary biology. There is a natural connection between the two: when gametes interact with each other, very commonly many of them originate from the same parent and are thus siblings. For example, sperm competition will almost always involve competition between sibling gametes even if the interacting parents are not related to each other. If parents are related to each other, the relatedness between gametes increases further. Here we…
Singing as a form of vocal imitation - Mechanisms and deficits
2009
There has been a recent upsurge of interest in the neural and cognitive bases of inaccurate singing, commonly referred to as “tone deafness.” Explanations of this deficit have commonly focused on perceptual and motor functions. It is clear, however, that neither of these mechanisms can fully account for deficits in singing. We summarize the results of several studies concerning inaccurate, or “poor pitch” singing. Taken together, the results of these studies argue that the basis for singing-related deficits lies in the link between perception and action, rather than strictly motoric or perceptual factors. Moreover, singing deficits may involve general purpose vocal imitation mechanisms, rat…
Self-reported life-space mobility in the first year after ischemic stroke: longitudinal findings from the MOBITEC-Stroke project
2023
Abstract Background Life-space mobility is defined as the size of the area in which a person moves about within a specified period of time. Our study aimed to characterize life-space mobility, identify factors associated with its course, and detect typical trajectories in the first year after ischemic stroke. Methods MOBITEC-Stroke (ISRCTN85999967; 13/08/2020) was a cohort study with assessments performed 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after stroke onset. We applied linear mixed effects models (LMMs) with life-space mobility (Life-Space Assessment; LSA) as outcome and time point, sex, age, pre-stroke mobility limitation, stroke severity (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale; NIHSS), modified R…
Sketching sonic interactions by imitation-driven sound synthesis
2016
Sketching is at the core of every design activity. In visual design, pencil and paper are the preferred tools to produce sketches for their simplicity and immediacy. Analogue tools for sonic sketching do not exist yet, although voice and gesture are embodied abilities commonly exploited to communicate sound concepts. The EU project SkAT-VG aims to support vocal sketching with computeraided technologies that can be easily accessed, understood and controlled through vocal and gestural imitations. This imitation-driven sound synthesis approach is meant to overcome the ephemerality and timbral limitations of human voice and gesture, allowing to produce more refined sonic sketches and to think a…
Intellectual property rights and economic growth
2015
Striving for greater economic growth, requires a great understanding of the underlying factors. One of the factors may be the intellectual property rights and the level of its protection. Whether it is and how does it behave are the questions answered by this thesis. The theoretical framework comes mainly from the Schumpeterian growth model. The empirical methodology uses GMM in order to obtain reliable results. The level of intellectual property rights protection in the country does seem to have a positive effect on the country’s growth rate. Furthermore it seems that the relation is non-linear: The incremental changes are different between low and high starting levels of the IPR protectio…
