- Page Range:23-28
- No. of Pages:6
- Keywords:Functions of Law; Law; Legal Principles; Natural Law Theories; Normativism; Social Relations; State of Law; Value
- Summary/Abstract:The article comments on the grounds for values in law by emphasizing their relevance in modern democratic societies, which seek opportunities for harmonizing social relations not only nationally but also internationally. It develops the idea that law has a dual nature, on the one side, can be seen as a transcendental value, on the other side as a value -means (tool) which is in public service. The article collates different views on the value of law, both from normative school and in terms of natural law theories. It leads to the conclusion that legal values are formal values due to the inherent formalistic approach of the law and have legal significance. They are distinguished by theirmoral and religious content. The article indicates that the social value of law gives value characteristics of other social phenomena -economic, social, cultural, and also the state, turning it into a State of Law and political power, giving it legitimacy.

- Summary/Abstract:The present article examines the role and importance of ‘soft law’ sources for the regulation of international commercial and civil relations in the contemporary world. Object of study are different types of optional instruments, such like Model Laws, Principles, Uniform Rules etc. prepared by UNCITRAL, UNODROIT, ICC and other international organizations. They provide a pattern that law-makers in national governments can adopt as part of their domestic legislation on private law. These rules are not enacted as legislation and therefore not binding in nature, but they could be selected by parties as part of their contract. Under analysis are also the Principles of European Contract Law (PECL), Principles of European Tort Law (PETL), Principles of European Family Law (PEFL), Principles of European Insurance Contract Law (PEICL), as well as the Draft Common Frame of Reference (DCFR) and their importance for the future European Civil code.

- Summary/Abstract:Perpetrators of extreme crime usually suffer from mental health damages which do not qualify as legal insanity. The most common among them is the mental/personality disorder. Judicial approaches towards it differ from concept that it is a sufficient condition to deny the imposition of the gravest penalty to a belief that it is a sufficient ground for imposing it as it is directly related to the perpetrator’s dangerousness. The article argues that personality disorder is a mitigating circumstance which prevents courts from choosing the gravest penalty. The article is based on a case-law study and analyses in depth a selection of cases.

Understanding the content of "property" becomes even more compounded when the latter is conceptually transformed into right to property. Opinions vary and are often contradictory.

- Keywords:Convicted Persons; Criminal Law; Probation Period; Suspended Execution of Punishment; Suspended Sentence
- Summary/Abstract:The report explores the meaning of the term „conditional sentencing “. The established understanding of the term is to mean suspended execution of imposed punishment. Major part of the survey focuses on the conflict between the implied meaning that the term linguistically brings up of purely conditional and even missing element of a punishment itself and the true legal nature of this important Criminal law institute. The paper further discusses some of the legal consequences for the so called „conditionally convicted persons“ that give ground to assert that what we have is a clearly penal treatment. The report draws attention to the conclusion that the state makes use of the suspended sentence as a tool to enforce its corrective and preventive criminal law policy.

- Summary/Abstract:Why Do Laws Obligate Us? Comparison Between the Theories of Legal Normativity byTseko Torbov and Hans Kelsen. According to Kelsen's famous view the validity of the constitution must be presupposed in order to preserve the “purity” of legal science - id est, to avoid the deducement of norms from facts. I compare this theory to its Cantian methodological roots and to the “legal criticism” of Tseko Torbov (1899- 1987). The pioneer of the Neokantian legal philosophy in Bulgaria tried to outgrow the Kantian doctrine of law. He introduced the lacking in Kant`s model basic legal principle, which functioned as a validating reason for all the “lawful” (real) norms. Its substance according to Torbov is justice. At the end of the article I explain the differences with the contrasts between Kelsen's and Torbov's views on meta-ethics.

- Summary/Abstract:The Restriction of Parental Rights - an Atypical Result in Some Specific Procedures. The restriction of parental rights is a special procedure, which finds its place in the Family Code.However, a number of other procedures that pursue quite different goals can achieve the effect of restricting in one way or another right of parents to communicate with their own child. For example, in proceedings for protection from domestic violence, the court may prohibit a parent to approach a child. Restriction can prevent and placement of the child in a family of relatives or in placement in a specialized institution. It is very controversial question about the possibility of a child to be placed in an institution of closed type (boarding reformatory) and how it affects custody. The court should not remain indifferent to the fate of the child, nor to the right of parents to exercise their parental rights, which are why even in these specific procedures, should detail arrange mode of personal relationships.

Through the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union and through series of amendments of the Founding treaties, the principle of the rule of law turns into a state of constitutional character for the legal order of the EU, determining both the legality of the acts of the European institutions and the belonging of the member-states to the Union.

- Page Range:194-210
- No. of Pages:17
- Keywords:Administration; Prosecutor; Rule of Law; Supervision
- Summary/Abstract:This article renders problematic the prosecutor’s supervision over public administration in contemporary Bulgaria and explores what limitations need to be delineated so that such supervision to be in line with the rule of law. The “general prosecutor’s supervision” is a fundament of socialist administrative law, grounded in the political ideas of Leninism. After the adoption of the democratic Constitution in 1991 that institute passes over to the contemporary administrative law without any theoretical or practical debates for its place in the paradigm of the rule of law. The Prosecutor’s office continues to exist in the same old socialist model as a united, centralized, hierarchical system in the branch of judiciary. While the prosecutor’s supervision is no longer theorized as a general one,the powers of the prosecutor, especially the supervision over public administration, have not been substantially constricted. The article raises the question whether the existing prosecutor’s supervision over public administration in Bulgaria actually turns into prosecutor’s supervision over the citizens and organizations, on one side, and over the court, on the other side. Moreover, the research tackles the balance between the public interest and human rights in the complex relationship between the administration and citizens and offers for debate certain formulas for laying down adequate limitations of the prosecutor’s supervision over public administration.

It is open to the meta-legal normative systems and thus is dependent on their normative concepts and paradigms. The network relations between the fundamental constitutional principles and values are paralleled by the hierarchical relations between them and the sector specific principles and values. Last but not least the relationship between the axiology of the national constitutional law and the axiology of the supranational constitutionalism is discussed.

- Keywords:Acquisitive Prescription; Commerce; Gewere; Good Faith Acquisition of Movables; Goods; Movables; Possession; Possession Equals Title
- Summary/Abstract:The method of defining the good faith acquisition of movables as a separate original means of acquiring ownership. The present article examines from a historic-comparative perspective the way of formation of good faith acquisition of movables as a separate ‘modus acquirendi’. Since Roman law refused to give protection to the acquirer ‘a non domino’ and only acquisitive prescription was available to possessors who for other reasons (in particular defective delivery) had not yet acquired ownership, the famous French author Fr. Bourjon elaborated in 1747 the rule that with regard to movables ‘possession equals title’ (possession vaut titre). This rule was intended to protect good faith acquirers in the interest of commerce, so that no acquisitive prescription rule was needed. The drafters of the Code Napoleon adopted this rule, by providing, in Article 2279 (now 2276) Code Civil, that ‘en fait de meubles, la possesson vaut titre’. On this way a good faith acquisition rule was enacted.
