No Trespassing: The Legal Origins Of Louisiana’S Water Access Dispute, Karly Kyzar Dorr
No Trespassing: The Legal Origins Of Louisiana’S Water Access Dispute, Karly Kyzar Dorr
Journal of Civil Law Studies
Since the birth of the civil law tradition, the public’s right to access and use running waters has been recognized and protected through written legal sources, statutes, and codes. However, although the State of Louisiana is often lauded as the “Sportsman’s Paradise,” the current judicial interpretation of water access rights has restricted the public’s ability to use waterways, in particular running waters, for recreational pursuits such as fishing and hunting.

Restating The Civil Law Of Quasi-Contract: Negotiorum Gestio And Unjust Enrichment, Nikolaos A. Davrados
Journal of Civil Law Studies
This Article restates the Louisiana civil law of negotiorum gestio and unjust enrichment, one decade after the common-law Third Restatement of Restitution and Unjust Enrichment. The Article first redefines and re-designates the term "quasi-contract" from a false source of obligations to a valid practical term describing the two separate institutions of negotiorum gestio and unjust enrichment. Based on this renewed understanding of quasi-contract, the Article proceeds to a detailed commentary on the revised Louisiana law of negotiorum gestio and unjust enrichment (which includes the special action for payment of a thing not due and the general action for enrichment without …

The 2020 Revision Of The Puerto Rican Civil Code: A Brief Explanation Of Major Changes, Luis Muñiz-Argüelles

One of the last Spanish colonies, Puerto Rico became a US Territory in 1899. The Spanish Civil Code was replaced by a Puerto Rican Civil Code in 1930. A revision process spanned over a period of 23 years, ending with the adoption of a new Civil Code in 2020. After a presentation of the revision process, this report presents and discusses the changes and innovations in family law, property, contractual obligations, torts, and successions, also …
