Notaries and Land Deed Officials are obligated to follow established principles in their official duties, guided by written regulations such as the Notary Job Law, Notary Code of Ethics, Government Regulation Number 24 of 2016, and Ministerial Regulation Number 2 of 2018. Notaries are often accused of negligence, interpreted as unintentional, but not all cases involve unintentional actions; intentional elements can lead to wrongful acts. The lack of differentiation in legal sanctions between unintentionality and intentionality is due to the Civil Code. To address this issue, a doctrinal research method was employed, focusing on positive legal norms from secondary sources. …

A land title certificate is a strong proof of land ownership. After the enactment of Law Number 5 of 1960 concerning Basic Agrarian Principles Regulations, proof of land ownership in Indonesia must be registered in order to obtain a certificate. Girik is only proof of payment of tax on land, not proof of ownership of land rights. To become proof of ownership of the Girik land, it must first be upgraded to a land title certificate. Girik that is not upgraded has the potential for ownership disputes, as happened in the case in the West Jakarta District Court Decision Number …

There is a discrepancy in Foundation Law Number 28 of 2004 and Presidential Regulation No.13/2018 concerning the Application of the Principle of Benefits from Corporations in the Context of Preventing and Eradicating Crimes of Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing Crimes. Looking at the provisions in the Foundation Law which states that Foundation Organs may not receive profits, temporarily Beneficial Owner itself aims to identify the Beneficial Owner of the Foundation, this is of course contradictory because Foundation Organs are not allowed to receive any benefits. The research method used is doctrinal research with a prescriptive research typology, which is research …
A "Profoundly Contractarian Predisposition": Delaware Courts Decide Recent Drafting Disputes By Limiting Their Review To Four Corners Of Contracts, Robert S. Reder, Kathleen E. Sharkey
A "Profoundly Contractarian Predisposition": Delaware Courts Decide Recent Drafting Disputes By Limiting Their Review To Four Corners Of Contracts, Robert S. Reder, Kathleen E. Sharkey
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
In the decisions discussed herein, both the Delaware Supreme Court ("Supreme Court") and the Delaware Court of Chancery ("Chancery Court") reaffirmed the Delaware judiciary's commitment to honoring contract language, whenever possible, to settle contractual disputes. Absent irreconcilable ambiguity, no coloring outside the lines will be considered. The goal generally is to reflect the intent of the parties while avoiding absurd or illogical results. Ironically, in each of these cases, better drafting could have ensured the parties were on the same page: " In Arwood v. AW Site Services, Vice Chancellor Slights, confirming Delaware's status as "'more contractarian' than most states," …

Contractual Remedies In Mergers: Lessons From Crispo V. Musk, Dhruv Aggarwal, Albert H. Choi, Geeyoung Min
Law & Economics Working Papers
The Delaware Chancery Court recently restricted a merger target's ability to recover damages on behalf of its shareholders from a breaching buyer. This paper investigates the impact of the decision. First, we present a theoretical analysis to generate empirical predictions. Second, we show that the decision led to a decrease in the firm value of targets in mergers governed by Delaware law. Third, we hand-collect relevant provisions from merger agreements and find that the agreements governed by Delaware law increasingly include target-friendly non-price terms after the decision. We also present evidence suggesting deal price responds to the inclusion of novel …

Educating Deal Lawyers For The Digital Age, Heather Hughes
Fordham Law Review
Courses and programs that address law and emerging technologies are proliferating in U.S. law schools. Technology-related issues pervade the curriculum. This Essay presents two instances in which new technologies present challenges for deal lawyers. It explores how exposing students to closing opinions practice can prepare them to engage these challenges. Both examples involve common commercial contexts and lessons relevant to students of business associations and of the Uniform Commercial Code. The first, which deals with enforceability opinion letters, presents technical legal difficulties arising from recent developments in law and technology. The second, involving complex doctrines at the heart of financial …

Online Disinhibited Contracts, Wayne R. Barnes
Pepperdine Law Review
There have been at least two dominant forces at work in the realm of consumer contracting over the past several decades. One has been the rise and domination of the standard form contract (whereby merchants contract with consumers via the use of standardized, boilerplate terms and conditions that consumers do not read or understand). The second force has been the rise of e-commerce and the purchase of goods and services via websites and other online platforms, and the use of “wrap” formation methodology (whereby merchants obtain consumer assent to the online terms and conditions via the consumer’s informal click, scroll, …

Exploring Flexibility In 83(B) Elections: A Tax Policy Proposal, Brayden Call
Exploring Flexibility In 83(B) Elections: A Tax Policy Proposal, Brayden Call
BYU Law Review
Property awards, such as equity, are taxable to the recipient and have tax implications for employers, too. Without a recipient making an 83(b) election, property awards are taxable when they are granted. For awards that have vesting requirements or are considered “restricted,” they are generally taxable upon vesting. However, making an 83(b) election allows recipients of restricted property awards to be taxed as if the property were vested, meaning more income will shift from ordinary tax rate treatment to preferential tax rate treatment.
The preferential tax system is foundational to the 83(b) election. Advocates believe that preferential tax rates in …

Beyond Trade Secrecy: Confidentiality Agreements That Act Like Noncompetes, Camilla A. Hrdy, Christopher B. Seaman
Beyond Trade Secrecy: Confidentiality Agreements That Act Like Noncompetes, Camilla A. Hrdy, Christopher B. Seaman
Scholarly Articles
There is a substantial literature on noncompete agreements and their adverse impact on employee mobility and innovation. But a far more common restraint in employment contracts has been underexplored: confidentiality agreements, sometimes called nondisclosure agreements (NDAs). A confidentiality agreement is not a blanket prohibition on competition. Rather, it is simply a promise not to use or disclose specific information. Confidentiality agreements encompass trade secrets, as defined by state and federal laws, but confidentiality agreements almost always go beyond trade secrecy, encompassing any information the employer imparted to the employee in confidence.
Despite widespread use, confidentiality agreements have received little attention. …
Silence As Consumer Consent: Global Regulation Of Negative Option Contracts, Kaitlin Caruso, Prentiss Cox
Silence As Consumer Consent: Global Regulation Of Negative Option Contracts, Kaitlin Caruso, Prentiss Cox
American University Law Review
Worldwide, the “subscription economy” has exploded in recent years, especially among online sellers of consumer goods and services. Although these subscriptions use various contract forms, many have one common feature: the negative option. With a negative option contract, once a consumer has signed up, the contract will continue until the consumer actively reaches out to cancel it. These are wildly popular among sellers, as they create continuous income and put inertia on the sellers’ side. Unsurprisingly, then, consumers complain in great numbers about being trapped in agreements that are easy to sign up for but seemingly impossible to cancel. Even …

Henderson And The Objective Observer Standard: The Future Of Race-Conscious Standards Post-Students For Fair Admissions, Gabriela Dionisio
Seattle University Law Review
On June 29, 2023, the Supreme Court of the United States decided Students for Fair Admissions v. President & Fellows of Harvard College, which struck down race-conscious admissions policies. Within just a year after its ruling, Students for Fair Admissions has already had a sweeping impact, reaching beyond higher education. Although the Supreme Court did not indicate whether Students for Fair Admissions applies to sectors beyond higher education, law firms, and other employers have already modified their diversity policies and initiatives, erasing race and company diversity considerations. Given those dramatic changes, there is growing fear that Students for Fair Admissions …
