The article is devoted to the issue of self-defense in Polish and American law . Currently, there are attempts to widen the scope of necessary self-protection in Polish legislation and to implement provisions which allow for using greater degree of force by a person attacked at home . The justification of the draft refers to the American law which is more developed in the context of the defense of habitation . Thus, the article provides an analysis of existing legal solutions in American criminal law concerning e .g . the legal definition of self-defense, the use of deadly force, the duty to retreat, the castle doctrine and the provisions which expand this doctrine in comparison with the parallel legal solutions existing in Poland .

This dissertation will focus on common intention constructive trusts in relation to shared ownership of the family home predominantly in relation to unmarried couples. These trusts are particularly important because as opposed to married couples where the court may determine a couple’s financial and property issues upon divorce using the provisions of the Matrimonial Causes Act 1973, the position of unmarried couples is not covered by any legislation and so judges need to refer back to case law and property law in order to establish the equitable ownership of property.

One of the politically momentous and legally precedential constitutional problems of recent years which had to be faced by the Polish constitutional court has been the dispute whether it is possible to exclude the applicable statute defining the organization and procedure of the CT proceedings as a basis for adjudication. An analysis of the judgment of the Tribunal addressing that issue proves that the Polish constitutional court excluded the possibility that the same regulation could serve simultaneously as the object of control and the basis for control proceedings. This results from the essence of constitutional control of the law which in such arrangement of its key elements would simply repeal itself, i.e. would lead to its own invalidation. Subordination of constitutional judges exclusively to the Constitution extends to all actions they perform in serving their office and other consubstantial manifestations of exercising the power to judge.

近年来波兰宪法法院必须面对的政治上重大和法律上具有先例意义的宪法问题之一是,是否有可能排除规定宪法法院程序的组织和程序的适用法规,作为裁决的基础。对法庭处理这一问题的判决的分析证明,波兰宪法法院排除了同一条例可以同时作为控制对象和控制程序的基础的可能性。这是由宪法控制法律的本质造成的,在这种关键要素的安排下,法律只会自我废除,即导致其本身无效。宪法法官完全服从宪法,包括他们为履行职责所采取的一切行动以及行使审判权的其他同质表现。这是法庭的法律责任的衍生品,*本文是由国家科学中心资助的一项研究项目的一部分。DEC-2014/13 /B/HS5/01453 (artykuowjest częścią projektu badawczego finansowanego ze środków Narodowego Centrum Nauki przyznanych na podstawie decyzji nr DEC-2014/13 /B/HS5/01453)。参见CT判决:2015年12月3日,第。K 34/15, OTK ZU号11/A/2015,项目185;K 35/15, OTK ZU号11/A/2015,项目186;2016年12月11日K 39/16, OTK ZU号A/2016,项目71,仍待在《法学杂志》上发表。** Hab副教授,博士,波兰科学院法律研究所,piotradziewicz@gmail.com。

Shareholders of Polish companies dispose of various rights – property as well as corporate. Majority of corporate rights can be exercised by a representative. Representation, in this regard includes two categories: proxy and statutory representation. Regulations concerning representation vary, depending on kind of company in which they are used (limited liability companies, joint – stock companies or public companies, whose regulation is influenced by European law). In current study representation to exercise corporate rights of shareholders will be examined on the meta-law level. Provisions of international private law shall be observed to determine that which country’s legal regime shall be applied to interpret the institution of representation in cross-border situations. Additionally, it is necessary to distinguish the scopes of laws applicable for different issues connected with representation. The dissertation is aimed to address all abovementioned questions with the reference to European and Polish law.

When dealing with citizens, public administration has numerous opportunities for abuse of its privileged position. The study of public subjective rights of disabled persons in public law is important because the relation under administrative law is not an equal relation. The state is always the stronger party. When a party to this relation is a person with a dysfunction of the body, a situation is created which is highly unfavourable for this person because of the natural tendency of the state system (including public authorities) to use its privileged position. This can result in actual discrimination of persons with disabilities. The purpose of the law is the common good and welfare of individual persons. Respecting the welfare of persons with disabilities in the public law guarantees the realization of the common good. One can not create the law while ignoring the rules governing human life. As Petrażycki wrote, “the highest good to which we should strive in policy in general and legal policy in particular – is the moral development of man and the rule of highest rational ethics among human beings, namely, the ideal of love” (Petrażycki, 1968, translation mine).
