The right of ownership of a unit and the possibilities of its transfer after recodification This thesis deals with the right of ownership of a unit by the act No. 89/2012 Coll. (the civil code) with emphasis on the possibilities of its transfer. I chose the topic because of great practical importance of the issue and many changes brought by recodification of the civil law. This thesis is based on comparative method - the previous legislation by the act No. 40/1964 Coll. (the civil code) and by the act No. 72/1994 Coll. (about ownership of flats) is compared with current legislation. The main aim of the thesis is to clearly describe the most significant changes in the rules of ownership of a unit and its transfer and to point out the benefit of the new regulation as well as its weaknesses and eventual practical problems. This thesis is composed of eight separate chapters, each of them includes several subsections. First chapter contains an introduction to the issue of the ownership of flats and a brief description of the historical development of ownership of flats in the Czech Republic. Chapter two describes the basic concept of ownership of flats by the repealed legislation, followed by chapter three describing the same basic concept by the new legislation and highlighting the most important...

The transfer of ownership of cooperative apartments The thesis deals with the issue of the transfer of property of cooperative apartments which is a topic frequently approached due to a large number of members of the cooperatives who still haven't settled their legal claims against the housing cooperatives. The housing cooperatives will keep their importance even with the new civil code being applicable. The purpose of the thesis is to analyze legal regulation concerning transfers of ownership of apartments from the housing cooperatives to their members, concentrating especially on the conditions, fulfilling of which establishes an obligation for the cooperative to conclude the contract with their members in order to transfer the ownership of cooperative units. The thesis also attempts to describe some changes brought into the legal system by the new civil code. The thesis is composed of four chapters which are further divided into subchapters. Chapter One is dedicated to the definition of the essential concepts used in the thesis. Considering the transfer of ownership, it is necessary to denominate the parties of the relationship which are the housing cooperative on one side and the member the housing cooperative, and the subject to the property right or claim - cooperative apartment. Chapter Two...

Le droit commun de la vente, caractérisé par l’effet immédiat du transfert de propriété dès la rencontre des consentements s’est avéré une source de difficultés en matière immobilière au XIXème siècle. Cette simplicité excessive qui rend le transfert de propriété instantané et occulte heurte la réalité et les difficultés inhérentes aux mutations immobilières. Le recours à de nombreuses exceptions dans le Code civil de 1804 a rendu l’économie générale du transfert illisible pour les praticiens, la sécurité des transmissions immobilières nécessitant de reconstituer un instrument de preuve efficace. Si l’opération de transfert réside dans une conception volontariste en se focalisant sur la formation du contrat par une dématérialisation de l’obligation de donner, son efficacité reste tributaire d’aménagements contractuels et de formalités postérieures au contrat. Cette refondation qui se fera sur la notion d’authenticité et qui érige un contrôle de légalité incarné par le notaire aura pour avantage de préserver la fiction consensuelle et de repousser tout schéma dualiste comme les livres fonciers considérés par une majorité de la doctrine française comme contraire à l’esprit du droit français. / Common Sales Law , characterized by the immediate effect of the transfer of ownership from the meeting consents has been a source of difficulties in real estate in the nineteenth century. This excessive simplicity that makes transferring ownership instant hits and occult reality and the difficulties inherent in immovables . The use of many exceptions in the Civil Code of 1804 has made the general economy unreadable transfer practitioners , security estate transmissions requiring reconstitute an effective instrument of evidence. If the transfer operation lies in a deliberate design by focusing on the formation of the contract by a dematerialization of the obligation to give, its effectiveness is dependent on contractual arrangements and post- contract formalities . This overhaul will be done on the notion of authenticity and erects a review of legality embodied by the notary will have the advantage of preserving the consensus fiction and repel any scheme as dualistic land books considered by a majority of the French doctrine as contrary the spirit of French law.

This thesis "Contractual acquisition of ownership" deals with the fundamental questions of contractual acquisition of property law in the Czech Civil Code. Some of the parts of the project are comparative. The author takes into account both the older national regulations of contractual acquisition as well as the different approaches in the same field in some foreign legal systems. In the introduction the author highlights the importance of property law (this right forms one of three fundamental pillars of private law - together with "man" and "contract") as well as the possibility to transfer it to another. First chapter shows that - from the general point of view - acquisition of property law as such may be based on a number of different modes. The paper contains an overview of particular modes and its dividing into relevant categories. The acquisition based on contracts is a type of derivative acquisition. Next chapter is devoted to some general questions of contractual transfer of ownership. Some decisive (general and special) legal principles are offered: namely the principle of the autonomy of the will, the principle of the absence of formality of contracts and finally the "nemo dat" principle (nemo dat quod non habet). This part of the project also focuses on the basic conceptual elements of...

The financial result of a transfer of ownership or external sale is to a great extent depend-ent on how the transfer is implemented and how the tax rules apply. The applicability of the Swedish tax rules regarding transfer of ownership in closely held companies largely de-pends on the interpretation of the prerequisite, equal or similar activity, which can be found in section 57, clause 4 of the Swedish Income Tax Act. The ruling made by the Supreme Administrative Court in RÅ 2010 ref. 11 changed the concept of equal or similar activity. The ruling lead to that the shares in a closely held com-pany was qualified due to that the capital from the original company had been transferred to the operating company. According to the ruling the original company had been split into several companies, thus was the companies considered to carry out equal or similar activity. In 2011 the Supreme Administrative Court announced two rulings that expanded the con-cept of equal or similar activity. According to the rulings no transfer of assets is needed since the purchase price is enough for companies to be considered to carry out equal or similar activity, thus was the shares considered qualified. The decisive factor is that the pur-chase price has been generated by the owner or a family member. A transfer of ownership implies that a new generation will be handling the business. Fur-thermore, shares in closely held companies are qualified if the owners are active in signifi-cant quantities. That fact in relation to that the decisive factor is that the purchase price has been generated by the owner implies that any purchase price will be generated by the own-er. Therefore, the companies will carry out equal or similar activity which means that no tax benefit is achieved, thus will not the Tax evasion Act be applicable.

Inskrivningsprocessen av lagfart/tinglysing är en del av vad inskrivningsmyndigheterna arbetar med i Sverige och Norge. Lagfart/tinglysing finns till för att visa vem/vilka som är rättslig(a) ägare till en fastighet. Vilket är väldigt viktigt för att hålla koll vem som är ansvarig för fastigheten. Att ha en inskrivningsprocess som är säker, effektiv och som har en låg kostnad är viktigt för att ha fungerande system för både köpare, säljare, företag och myndigheter. Syftet med studien är att undersöka skillnaden mellan Sveriges och Norges inskrivningsprocess vid lagfart/tinglysings ansökan. Men även att jämföra fördelar och nackdelar med processen. De krav som krävs för att bevilja lagfart undersökts också för att den ska bli rättssäker eller om det finns behov att förändra dessa. Studien undersöker även om det går att effektivisera inskrivningsprocessen samt hur det skulle påverka rättssäkerheten. För att besvara frågeställningarna har en kvalitativ metod använts. Metoden utgörs av en enkätundersökning, intervjuer och en jämförelse. I jämförelsen har information från litteraturen inhämtats, medan intervjuer och enkäter har genomförts med sakkunniga i respektive land. Resultatet av studien visar att mer digitalisering av inskrivningsprocessen skulle innebära säkrare och effektivare inskrivningsprocess av lagfarter/tinglysingar för fastigheter. Studien visar även att lagändringar är det som behöver ändras för att möjliggöra mer digitalisering. Lagstiftningarna i bägge länder bygger på föråldrade lagar när det inte fanns elektroniska alternativ. / The registration process of lagfart/tinglysing is part of what the registration authorities working with in Sweden and Norway. Lagfart/tinglysing is available to show who/which is the legal owner of a property. Which is very important to keep track of who is responsible for the property. Having an enrollment process that is secure, efficient and has a low cost is important for having a functioning system for both buyers, sellers, companies and authorities. The purpose of the study is to investigate the difference between Sweden's and Norway's enrollment process in lagfart/tinglysings. But also, to compare the advantages and disadvantages of the process. The requirements required to grant lagfart/tinglysing have also been examined for it to be legally secure or if there is a need to change these. The study also examines whether it is possible to streamline the enrollment process and how it would affect legal certainty. A qualitative method has been used to answer the questions. The method consists of a survey, interviews and a comparison. In the comparison, information from the literature has been obtained, while interviews and questionnaires have been conducted with experts in each country. The results of the study show that more digitization of the registration process would mean a safer and more efficient registration process of legal deeds / registrations for properties. The study also shows that changes in the law are what need to be changed to enable more digitization. Legislation in both countries is based on outdated laws when there were no electronic alternatives.

Cette thèse étudie empiriquement les marchés de brevets. Le Chapitre 1 étudie les transferts internationaux de propriété de brevets, par rapport aux régimes de "patent box". Ces régimes fiscaux offrent un taux de taxation réduit sur les revenus liés aux brevets. L'approche empirique du Chapitre 1 met en lumière une utilisation fiscale des marchés de brevets, et analyse ce comportement en tenant compte des caractéristiques et de la flexibilité des politiques fiscales. Le Chapitre 2 s'intéresse aux transferts de brevets essentiels à des normes, qui donnent à leurs propriétaires un large pouvoir de marché et de négociation. Ce chapitre montre l'existence et étudie deux marchés distincts pour les brevets essentiels: le marché pré-déclaration, sur lequel les entreprises échangent de nouvelles technologies, et le marché post-déclaration, sur lequel elles échangent des brevets déjà déclarés comme essentiels. Le Chapitre 3 examine l'effet de la distance géographique entre les parties contractantes sur le timing de l'accord de licence. L'analyse contrôle pour d'autres facteurs affectant le timing du contrat, et montre l'existence d'une caractéristique locale qui nuit aux arguments d'efficacité liés aux marchés de technologie. Le Chapitre 4 développe une méthode systématique pour l'analyse à grande échelle des transferts de propriété de brevets utilisant les registres européens. Cette méthode est appliquée pour effectuer une première analyse économique dans le domaine des technologies médicales. / This thesis empirically studies markets for patents.Chapter 1 investigates the international transfers of patent ownership with respect to patent box regimes, which provide advantageous tax schemes for revenues derived from patents. It provides empirical evidence on the use of markets for patents with respect to taxes, and analyses this behaviour regarding the features and the flexibility of fiscal policies.Chapter 2 studies the transfers of Standard-Essential Patents (SEPs), which give their owners large market and bargaining power. It provides empirical evidence on the existence and characteristics of two distinct markets for SEPs: the pre-declaration market, on which firms trade early technologies, and the post-declaration market, on which firms exchange already declared SEPs.Chapter 3 examines the effect of geographical distance between the contracting parties on the timing of the licensing deal. It controls for confounding factors and provides evidence on the existence of a local characteristic undermining the efficiency arguments related to markets for technology.Chapter 4 develops a systematic method for the large-scale analysis of the transfers of patent rights using European registers. It applies this method to derive novel economic evidence on the field of medical technologies.

Vingt-cinq ans après la ratification de la Convention de l'Unesco de 1970 et un an après celle de la Convention d'Unidroit de 1995 par l’État colombien, il est pertinent de réaliser un état des lieux du droit du patrimoine culturel colombien et de son appréhension des problématiques liées à la circulation des biens archéologiques et à leur transfert de propriété. Si ces vestiges appartiennent incontestablement à la Nation depuis 1991, leur protection constitutionnelle ne suffit pas à satisfaire la politique nationaliste que ce pays-source souhaiterait mener. Le questionnement est donc double : d'une part, celui du régime juridique auquel les biens archéologiques sont soumis sur le territoire national et, d'autre part, celui des possibilités d'application de ce dispositif protecteur lorsqu'ils se trouvent à l'étranger. Il s'agit donc de s'interroger sur la clarté et la précision du régime juridique auquel ces vestiges sont soumis en droit colombien pour permettre à l’État de fonder des demandes en restitution ou de retour susceptibles de réussir et, aussi, de définir dans quelle mesure ce dispositif national peut être appliqué par les autorités et les tribunaux étrangers. Par ailleurs, les traités internationaux spécialement adoptés en la matière depuis la seconde moitié du XXe siècle semblent insuffisants en vue de répondre aux attentes colombiennes de restitution et de retour de ses biens archéologiques. La pratique a démontré que la lutte internationale contre le trafic illicite reste étroitement liée aux législations nationales, tant celle de l’État requérant que celle de l’État requis. Les stratégies contentieuses susceptibles d'être mises en œuvre devant les autorités et les tribunaux français ont été étudiées à titre d'exemple. Plusieurs acteurs sont au centre de ces disputes : les États, les peuples autochtones, les marchands d'art et les musées. La diversité de leurs intérêts révèle la complexité des rapports qui peuvent se tisser autour de ces vestiges considérés, selon les différents points de vue, comme des objets identitaires, sacrés, artistiques ou scientifiques.Enfin, au regard de l'évolution récente du droit du patrimoine culturel colombien, les conditions semblent présentes pour revisiter le rapport que ce pays entretient vis-à-vis des vestiges archéologiques d'origine colombienne qui se trouvent à l'étranger. / It has been more than twenty-five years since Colombia State ratified the 1970 Unesco Convention and one year later it ratified the 1995 Unidroit Convention. It is now relevant to evaluate Colombia’s cultural heritage law and its perception of the issues surrounding the international trade of archaeological objects and ownership transfer. If archaeological antiquities belong unmistakably to the Nation since 1991, their constitutional protection does not satisfy the nationalistic policy this source country would like to lead.The evaluation of cultural heritage law is a double issue. On the one hand, there is the problem of how the domestic laws are applied to archaeological objects within the national territory. On the other hand, there is the difficulty of implementing domestic legislation when the antiquities are abroad. It is therefore a question of assessing if Colombia’s cultural heritage legislation has a framework that is clear and precise enough to allow the State to succeed in its claims and of defining to what extent it can be reinforced by foreign authorities and courts.Furthermore, international treaties adopted in this field since the second half of the twentieth century seem insufficient to meet Colombia´s concerns. Practice has shown that the international fight against illicit trade is closely bound to domestic laws, either that of the requesting State or of the requested State. The litigation strategies that can be brought before French authorities and courts have been studied as an example.These conflicts concern several actors: States, indigenous people, art dealers and museums. Their different level of interests reveal the complexity of the relationships that can be built among these antiquities considered, according to the stakeholders’ point of view, as identity, sacred, artistic or scientific objects.Finally, the recent development of Colombia’s cultural heritage legislation seems to challenge the country’s relation with its archaeological objects abroad.
