Keywords:EU Law; Court of Justice of the EU
Summary/Abstract:The role and the responsibility of the national judge for the implementation of the EU Law has been described and underlined very clearly by the Court of Justice of the EU (CJEU) in two historical decisions: Köbler and Commission v/ Italie. In Köbler the CJEU underlines the obligation of a member state (MS) for reparation of damages caused by incorrect application (non application) of the EU Law. That principle of the EU Law is applicable to any case in which a Member State breaches Community law, whichever is the authority of the Member State whose act or omission was responsible for the breach. The principle does not in itself have the consequence of calling in question that decision as res judicata.As to the conditions to be satisfied for a Member State to be required to make reparation for loss and damage caused to individuals as a result of breaches of Community law for which the State is responsible, the Court has held that these are threefold: the rule of law infringed must be intended to confer rights on individuals; the breach must be sufficiently serious; and there must be a direct causal link between the breach of the obligation incumbent on the State and the loss or damage sustained by the injured parties. The CJEU underlines that state liability for an infringement of Community law by a decision of a national court adjudicating at last instance can be incurred only in the exceptional case where the court has manifestly infringed the applicable law.In Commission v/ Italie (2003) the CJEU stresses on another very important principle of EU Law: an infringement by a member state will be faced only if an incorrect interpretation of an EU rule is a constant jurisprudence. In that regard, isolated or numerically insignificant judicial decisions in the context of case-law taking a different direction, or still more a construction disowned by the national Supreme Court, cannot be taken into account. That is not true of a widely-held judicial construction which has not been disowned by the Supreme Court, but rather confirmed by it. Thus the CJEU engages the State liability in all cases where a negligence of the EU Law is at stake and stipules that the main responsibility for preventing of all infringements lays especially on the national judge.Even if isolated situation of infringement of EU Law can stay out of the scope of the term of infringement under the art. 258 or 259 TFEU (as an exception), in any case the role of the supreme jurisdictions remains decisive – the last should disowne (by a decision or by an interpretation) the establishment of such a practice incompatible with the EU Law.

Summary/Abstract:Over the past few years there were held a series of forums in Bulgaria dealing with university teaching of human rights and especially - the issues of the ECHR and the ECtHR case law. The Foundation "Bulgarian Lawyers for Human Rights" conducted a survey in 2014 among magistrates and advocates regarding their satisfaction with the training in this field at an academic and a professional level. The Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe is working on the amendments to the currently existing Recommendation No 4 of 2004 concerning the teaching of Human Rights at the universities. Whether the prepared draft of the Regulation on the uniform state requirements for obtaining higher education in the specialty "Law" as the professional qualification "lawyer" and included in this course "Fundamental Rights and Freedoms" will meet the requirements of the practice and will be adequate to the current trends in teaching in other European countries? Certain aspects of the project raised serious doubts and concerns.The publication draws attention to the lack of trained teachers in the field of Human Rights in the lectures on fundamental legal disciplines, which makes impossible the realization of the idea for the Horizontal training.Also the current legislation restricts the involvement of non-academic experts in the field of human rights as teachers in universities. In this respect they made a range of recommendations.

Page Range:105-117
No. of Pages:13
Keywords:Dominant Position; Monopoly Position;Exclusive right
Summary/Abstract:The Protection of Competition Act includes the legal definitions of both notions “dominant position” and “monopoly position”. The conclusion drawn from existence of both definitions is that the Bulgarian legislator considers the dominant position and the monopoly position as two separate legal phenomena. This research aims to present their specifics and to explain whether the distinction between them is necessary for applying the prohibition under Art. 21 of Protection of Competition Act. In the light of the above mentioned problems it is examined the national legislation and the practice of the national competition authorities in the area of the abuse of a dominant and monopoly position. The analysis compares the national regulation and practice with the applicable legal rules of the other national EU jurisdictions and the practice of the European Commission and the Court of Justice of the EU concerning the abuse of dominance. It is concluded that the monopoly position is a form of the dominance and therefore the distinction between them is unnecessary for the application of the Art. 21 of the Protection of Competition Act. This conclusion provides a solid basis for de lege ferenda changes.

Summary/Abstract:In the period since the entry into force of the current Civil Procedure Code (CPC) an extensive case law has accumulated on its application, including with respect to provisions that have introduced new institutes in the proceedings covered by the CPC. Unfortunately, in many cases this case law is controversial and necessitates the Supreme Court of Cassation (SCC) to align it through its interpretative powers under Art. 124, para. 1 of the Judicial System Act. Regarding the injunctions for a future action, the Bulgarian legislator through the provisions of Art. 390, para. 3 of the CPC has introduced two new rules for the court of the injunction: a maximum legal duration of the period for submission of the future claim of one month and the obligation of the court to revoke the granted injunction with own motion in the absence of evidence that the action was submitted within the deadline determined by the court within the one-month period. The application of these new rules has entailed different opinions in the case law, including on the level of the Supreme Court of Cassation. In many orders, held under the cassation proceedings for appellate orders under Art. 274, para. 3 CPC, the separate configurations of the SCC have held controversially on the issue: “Is it possible to extend the deadline under the conditions of Art. 63, para 1 CPC determined in the scenario under Art. 390, para. 3 regarding the submission of a future action.” The finding of different resolutions regarding the same procedural and legal issue within the current case law to the extent of court orders under Art. 274, para 3 CPC, held by different Chambers of the SCC is within the scope of the regulations under Art.292 CPC and reasons an initiation of proceedings for the upholding of an interpretive decision. In order to unify the controversial case law by the different Chambers of the SCC under the upheld procedural issue the Chairman of the SCC has held with a regulation from the 08th December 2015 an interpretive case No 4/2015 to be initiated by the General Assembly of the Civil and Commercial Division of the SCC, which is still to be held upon. The issue under discussion within this report is the critical analysis of the regulations under Art. 390, para 3 CPC as well as the existing two statements in the procedural theory and case law regarding the nature of the deadline for submission of an action in an admitted injunction. The author reasons her own statement in relation to the answer which the interpretive issue before the General Assembly of the Civil and Commercial Division of the SCC is supposed to resolve. As per the author, the deadline for submission of future action in an admitted injunction is crucial in its nature and cannot be extended beyond the determined by the CPC one-month period.

Keywords:Arbitration; Form of Arbitration Agreement; Recognition and Execution of Local Arbitration Judgment
Summary/Abstract:This article analyzes the reasons for the mistrust of the arbitration’s activity and discusses the latest legislative amendments in the field – in the Civil Procedure Code (CPC) and the International Commercial Arbitration Act (ICAC), promulgated in the State Gazette, issue 8 of 24 Jan 2017. Firstly, it concludes that in the national source the form has been determined too widely, liberally and with an option for broad interpretation. The latest amendments to Article 7 para 3 ICAC that enlist the procedural actions of the defendant in the arbitration proceedings and satisfy the conditions for a valid arbitration agreement, practically make the framework narrower. The articles suggests that the requirements to the form of the arbitration agreement need to be more restrictive and that some optional forms, such as any “other” communication between the parties or a defendant’s consent by conduct need to be removed. Such conclusion is backed up by a comparative legal analysis of German and Austrian legislation. Secondly, the article comments on the narrowing of the scope of disputes admissible for consideration by arbitration in last amendment of Article 19 para 1 CPC that has taken out of the scope of arbitration agreements all disputes with consumers. As such arbitration judgment needs be declared null and void as it has been made on a dispute that cannot be subject to arbitration the article raises the question about the authority competent to declare it null and void. In principle this could be a civil action to the Supreme Court of Cassation. However, is it possible for the court competent to issue a writ of execution to declare incidentally such arbitration judgment null and void and to refuse the execution writ? The conclusion is that this is a check in the substance of the judgment that would functionally change the proceedings for issuing an execution of writ. Thirdly, the articles points out as a risk in the arbitration proceedings the direct effect of the local arbitration judgment similarly to the effects of the court judgment. Our law does not provide for court’s recognition of local arbitration judgment. However the author finds it necessary for the law to provide for such a court’s “sanction” mostly in the authority of the state (judicial) power to allow for the legal effects of the arbitration judgments only if ther comply with the ordre public that is the state legal order. The latest amendment of Article 47 ICAC removes the possibility for ordre public compliance check by the Supreme Court of Cassation. Such check is not provided in the proceedings for issuing a writ of execution as well. Given the liberal method of creating instutional arbitration courts and/or the lack of criteria for selection of arbitrators it is possible for many arbitration judgments to be made contrary to the principles of equality nd fairness that are fundamental for any administration of justice. The risks of the direct effect of local arbitration judgment could be overcome if the proceedings for issuing a writ of execution include a check of the minimum requirements for the debtor to be notified.

No. of Pages:9
Keywords:Legal Certainty; Justice; Criminal Law; Predictability; Social Justification
Summary/Abstract:The issue of the ratio between the principle of legal certainty and the principle of justice of the legal system is one of the most important and controversial topics in legal theory. Finding the balance between them is, however, a prerequisite for the proper functioning of the legal system. This is particularly noticeable in the area of criminal law in which the competition between those two legal principles is greatest. In this article, I argue that the balance between the predictability of law and its social justification may be sought in the field of positive law, since the legislature often establishes mechanisms and rules in order to achieve said balance. As an illustration of this, I have pointed out such legal phenomena as insubstantial acts, relatively-fixed criminal penalties, prescription terms etc.

Summary/Abstract:Perpetrators of extreme crime often suffer from brain diseases which do not exclude legal sanity – schizophrenia and alcoholic disease. Traditional judicial practice regards them as mitigating circumstances which prevent the imposition of the gravest penalty prescribed. However, after the introduction of life imprisonment (1996) and life imprisonment without commutation (1998) judicial approaches deviate from that concept thus establishing conflicting solutions. The article argues that traditional concepts should be restored. The article is based on a case-law study and an in-depth analysis of a selection of cases.

Summary/Abstract:Under the Bulgarian Criminal law the court may impose probation as punishment or impose a probation measure during the testing period in the case of suspended sentence and early release. Once imposed they become part of the probation regime during test period and any failure to observe them triggers consequences unfavorable for the sentenced person. The adhesion of our country to the European Union in 2007 and the free movement of persons and services faced criminal justice science with new challenges. In 2012 Bulgaria transposed Council Framework Decision 2008/947/JHA dealing with the transfer of probation measures and the application of the principle of mutual recognition of probation decisions and alternative sanctions. The basic principles and aims of the Decision are implemented in the national legislation through the Act on the recognition, execution and forwarding of judgments and probation decisions for the purposes of supervision of the probation measures and alternative sanctions.

Summary/Abstract:The article advances the argument for introducing a concept of authority in Bulgarian public law. It analyses the deficits in our public law doctrine that is confined to the concept of power and coercion and has a very limited understanding of authority. The author suggests that the lack of Bulgarian legal term authority is rooted in the legacy from the communist past. The roots of the Roman law term auctoritas have been explored to back up her argument that the concept of authority is indispensable in public legal context. The public law concept of authority has been introduced through the theoretical framework of the “authority of law” by Joseph Raz. The article implies that rule of law principle would never be effectively implemented in practice without an understanding of authority and authority of law.
