Democracia, Familia Y Matrimonio, Ramiro De Valdivia Cano Dec 2014

Democracia, Familia Y Matrimonio, Ramiro De Valdivia Cano

Ramiro De Valdivia Cano

En las "novelas rosa" de la antigüedad se estableció el dogma que señala que sólo la celebración del ritual del matrimonio podría resolver en definitivamente todos los problemas de los héroes y heroínas involucrados. El consumismo de la actualidad sostiene que la solución definitiva es el divorcio. Lo que se necesita es educación.

Do You Know The Fair Market Value Of Your Property? A Call To The Legislature To Revise Section 775.089, Florida Statutes, Governing Restitution, Adam Hapner Dec 2014

Do You Know The Fair Market Value Of Your Property? A Call To The Legislature To Revise Section 775.089, Florida Statutes, Governing Restitution, Adam Hapner

Adam Hapner

When a defendant’s criminal actions cause loss or damage to a victim’s property, section 775.089, Florida Statutes, requires that the court order the defendant to pay restitution to the victim. The purposes of section 775.089 are both to compensate the victim and to serve the rehabilitative, deterrent, and retributive goals of the criminal justice system. Recently, more and more cases have been decided in which the State was unable to prove the amount of loss sustained by the victim due to precise measurements of value and demanding methods of proof. In such cases, the purposes of restitution were not achieved …

Iniciativas Legais Para O Desenvolvimento Da Governança Corporativa No Mercado Financeiro E De Capitais Brasileiro, Felipe Chagas Villasuso Lago

Felipe Chagas Villasuso Lago Mr.

The study of Corporate Governance is of utmost importance for the development of transparency and ethics in the conduct of public and private institutions activities. Corporate governance has been important for the development of relations between the shareholder and the senior management of companies, employees, suppliers, customers, banks and other lenders, Regulators and the community as a whole. The study of such practice goes beyond legal issues and also involves economic analysis and policy for discussing the best strategy to ensure the return on investment or consideration, in the case of public service. The Financial and Capital Market are industries …


The Google Art Project: An Analysis From A Legal And Social Perspective On Copyright Implications, Katrina Wu Dec 2014

The Google Art Project: An Analysis From A Legal And Social Perspective On Copyright Implications, Katrina Wu

Katrina Wu

The Google Art Project is an ambitious attempt by Google to curate worldwide artwork online in the highest resolution possible. Google accomplishes this by partnering with museums where museums provide access to art collections and Google provides the technology to capture high quality images. Under this existing model, Google places the burden of copyright clearances on museums and removes images from online if requested by copyright owners. An endeavor like the Google Art Project is not unprecedented however, when Google attempted to put the world’s books online under the Google Books Project, scanning millions of titles and offering snippets for …

Measuring Enrichment Liability In The Context Of Unfinished Construction Projects, Aimite Jorge Dec 2014

Measuring Enrichment Liability In The Context Of Unfinished Construction Projects, Aimite Jorge

Aimite Jorge

Abstract: Most aspects of construction projects mainly fall under contractual regime. However, when things go wrong such as when the project is abandoned for various reasons, they may create two different scenarios: a contract that is breached and a fixed structure that is left on the land which may constitute an incomplete benefit that is acquired by one of the parties. The transfer of such benefit is initially made with a legal ground, but that ground has since ceased to exist. If some aspect of that benefit cannot be recovered under a contract, enrichment rules may be competent to solve …

Introduction Of Competition And Environmental Regulation In The Electricity Sector In Hong Kong, Thomas K. Cheng Dec 2014

Introduction Of Competition And Environmental Regulation In The Electricity Sector In Hong Kong, Thomas K. Cheng

Thomas K. Cheng

This article explores both the competition and the environmental aspects of the electricity sector in Hong Kong, and a possible linkage between them.There has been considerable public pressure to liberalize the electricity sector in Hong Kong due to longstanding discontent with the persistently high profit of the sector and a regulatory structure that is widely perceived to be ineffective. In light of the government’s seeming reluctance to pursue liberalization, this article examines an alternative approach – litigation under the recently adopted Competition Ordinance. It assesses the likelihood of success of the strategy and its potential shortfalls. The article proceeds to …

An Empirical Evaluation Of The Connecticut Death Penalty System Since 1973: Are There Unlawful Racial, Gender, And Geographic Disparities?, John J. Donohue Dec 2014

An Empirical Evaluation Of The Connecticut Death Penalty System Since 1973: Are There Unlawful Racial, Gender, And Geographic Disparities?, John J. Donohue

John Donohue

This article analyzes the 205 death-eligible murders leading to homicide convictions in Connecticut from 1973–2007 to determine if discriminatory and arbitrary factors influenced capital outcomes. A regression analysis controlling for an array of legitimate factors relevant to the crime, defendant, and victim provides overwhelming evidence that minority defendants who kill white victims are capitally charged at substantially higher rates than minority defendants who kill minorities, that geography influences both capital charging and sentencing decisions (with the location of a crime in Waterbury being the single most potent influence on which death-eligible cases will lead to a sentence of death), and …

In this paper we examine the Italian rules governing the selling of media “premium” rights by the Italian professional Soccer League. These rights are currently commercialized centrally, i.e. by the League itself for a three years period. We argue that in light of technological evolution and convergence, the practice of selling these rights “per platform” and according to a “no single buyer rule” may harm dynamic efficiency. Interplatform distribution exclusivity should thus prevail, unless these rights were to be considered not only significant in terms of audience and advertisement, but as an essential facility for downstream pay-Tv markets. In this …

Una Vez Más Sobre La Tercería De Propiedad Contra Embargo. A Propósito De Un Reciente Pronunciamiento De La Corte Suprema, Jimmy J. Ronquillo Pascual Dec 2014

Una Vez Más Sobre La Tercería De Propiedad Contra Embargo. A Propósito De Un Reciente Pronunciamiento De La Corte Suprema, Jimmy J. Ronquillo Pascual

Jimmy J. Ronquillo Pascual

En una reciente sentencia casatoria, la Sala Civil Permanente de la Corte Suprema ha hecho prevalecer el embargo inscrito frente a la propiedad no registrada. En opinión del autor, esta sentencia, a diferencia de anteriores pronunciamientos, invoca argumentos distintos a los tradicionales, por lo que marca un punto de referencia imprescindible para cualquier análisis de la tendencia jurisprudencial sobre la materia. Por ello, en este trabajo, se efectúan diversas precisiones sobre esta decisión judicial, lo cual es especialmente relevante en la medida que se estima que en el próximo Pleno Casatorio Civil nuestra Corte Suprema unifi cará criterios sobre la …

Este artículo tiene por objeto brindar y analizar algunos datos empíricos sobre el funcionamiento de la Justicia Penal Adolescente luego de siete años de la entrada en vigencia de la Ley N° 20.084.

Nuestros datos indican que con posterioridad a su entrada en vigencia han aumentado tanto el número …
