Škvareková, Gabriela ; Elischer, David (advisor) ; Dvořák, Jan (referee)
1 ABSTRACT UNJUST ENRICHMENT UNDER ENGLISH AND CZECH LAW The topic of presented thesis is "Unjust Enrichment under English and Czech Law". It aims to provide a comprehensive analysis and comparison of legal rules governing unjust enrichment in English and Czech law. The thesis is systematically divided into four principal chapters which are further subdivided. The first chapter presents an introduction to unjust enrichment. It provides a brief historical overview and a description of legal nature of unjust enrichment. It also aims to bring a basic comparison of the common law system and the civil law system to which English law and Czech law belong. Unjust enrichment on the European level is analysed in the second chapter. Two chosen soft law instruments of the European private law are presented here, namely Draft Common Frame of Reference and Principles of European Law of Unjust Enrichment, which set forth non-binding rules for the functioning of unjust enrichment. The third chapter is focused on the English law of unjust enrichment. It primarily brings the analysis of the requirements of unjust enrichment under English law. These requirements, which are based on the case law of the English courts, are as follows: (1) benefit, (2) at the claimant's expense, (3) unjust factor, and (4) lack of defence....

Unjust enrichment under business law
Gejdoš, Jakub ; Horáček, Vít (advisor) ; Eichlerová, Kateřina (referee)
The thesis is focused on the legal concept of unjust enrichment specifically in relation to the area of business law. Although the basic legal regulation relevant also for the area of business law was, and even after the adoption of the new private law codes, still remains in the civil code, the thesis endeavors to focus on certain specifics related particularly to the business relations. For these purposes it deals, in less or more detailed manner, also with other legal concepts, which are significant for the topic and closely related (such as limitation of claims resulting from the unjust enrichment, good faith of legal entities, invalidity of legal acts etc.). The thesis analyses legal acts regulating the institution of unjust enrichment for the area of private law, eventually specifically for the business relations. Especially in the areas where the legal text itself is not exhaustive, it supplies also analysis of relatively extensive case law (available so far only in respect of the previous legislation), eventually also the analysis of expert opinions. It draws attention to certain conflicts in interpretation of individual legal provisions. Considering the recent essential change of the private law basis (new private law codes) the thesis provides to a considerable extent comparison of the...

Unjustified Enrichment in Business Law
Loukotová, Šárka ; Horáček, Vít (advisor) ; Elek, Štefan (referee)
Unjustified Enrichment in Business Law Abstract The aim of my thesis is to analyse the concept of unjustified enrichment in connection with the commercial law. In fact this topic is usually described in the civil law studies and at the same time the unjustified enrichment is minor topic compared to the obligations arising from the contracts. This is the reason why I have chosen this issue describe and focus on the business aspects. The thesis is composed of seven chapters. Chapter one as an introduction defines basic legislation acts, which I am dealing with throughout the thesis and roughly describes there are changes in connection with the extensive recodification of the Czech private law. Chapter two is subdivided into two parts. Part one focuses on the origin of the unjustified enrichment in Ancient Rome as the base for the civil law. Part two provides an outline of past legislation within the territory of the Czech Republic until its establishment. Chapter three concentrates on the legislation effective until 31 December 2013. It illustrates the approach to decision-making by the Supreme Court including the decision-making in connection with the limitation of rights according to Commercial Code. Chapter four analyses the changes after New Civil Code came into force in relation to commercial law. Here...

Unjust enrichment
Míková, Petra ; Dvořák, Jan (advisor) ; Pohl, Tomáš (referee)
In this thesis I broadly deal with an important institution of law - unjust enrichment. Despite its subsidiary application nature, it has an irreplaceable role in the legal order of the Czech Republic, especially in the Private Law. The thesis focuses on the interpretation of the legislation in the Civil Code as this is the source for the legislation that is further applied on legal relationships regulated in special legal regulations. The most extensive part of the text is devoted to the interpretation of the legislation according to the positive law. I try to concentrate on the current legislation mainly from the point of view of the application and interpretational practice of the Supreme Court. For the purpose of easier orientation in the issue, I divided the interpretation of special merits of a fact into particular interpretational areas according to the example of the general part. In these interpretational areas I emphasize the peculiarities that need to be taken into account before asserting a claim resulting from the merits of a particular case. The thesis analyses the legislation in the new Civil Code. A part of the text deals with the proposed legislation of unjust enrichment in the Book VII. of the Common Framework of Reference which could be the source for the European Civil Code...

Unjust enrichment under business law
Jančařík, Ondřej ; Horáček, Vít (advisor) ; Čech, Petr (referee)
1 Abstract This thesis deals with the institute of unjust enrichment extending to commercial law. It is focused on specific aspects of existence of this institute in commercial law. Particularly it means an issue of the limitation of unjust enrichment claims in business relationships as well as other special elements of unjust enrichment in commercial law regulations such as the question of repayment of the performance caused by the withdrawal, the protection of the company name claims and protection against unfair competition, rights of industrial property and bill of exchange and cheques enrichment. Although the work is primarily based on existing legislation, it is not limited to the examination of the issue from the perspective of re-codification of private law. The thesis analyzes the various provisions of the relevant commercial law regulations whose interpretation is in theory and practice greatly divided, and with their detailed analysis using initially established theoretical basis, trying to make their own suggestions.

Unjust enrichment in the Czech legal order
Pilík, Václav ; Švestka, Jiří (advisor) ; Dvořák, Jan (referee) ; Petr, Bohuslav (referee)
Václav Pilík. Unjustified Enrichment in the Czech Law. PhD thesis 1 Abstract This PhD thesis explores the legal institution of unjustified enrichment in the Czech private law. The subject is dealt in larger historical, theoretical and partly comparative relationships in order not to be reduced only to internal problems of the national regulation. A general view of unjustified enrichment (part one of this work), providing a systematic introduction to the problem, is hinder by different approaches, their overlapping and largely opened discourse on conceptual questions. Despite all that difficulties, found out by comparative legal studies of unjustified enrichment in the civil law and common law systems, it is necessary to undergo an attempt at expression of common features of the unjustified enrichment as a legal concept. Supposing that, we can describe three common features of unjustified enrichment: it is enrichment obtained at the expense of another and in a lawless way; the modern legal institute of unjustified enrichment rests on fragmentary historical basis, substantially completed by national factors of legal development (legislation, justice and doctrine); the enrichment is viewed as objective fact (at least in certain states of facts). Legal development of unjustified enrichment runs differently in...

This historical analysis points out certain analogies with the current regulation and the development of elements that are the foundation of today's unjust enrichment legislation. The following part of the work contains analysis of the current de lege lata legislation of unjust enrichment in the commercial law, the subsequent part constitutes the crucial part of this work that is concerned directly with unjust enrichment in the commercial law. First, it analyses the term of business contractual obligations, then it analyses the relationship between the Civil Code and the Commercial Code and finally it sums up the expert discussion relating to the unjust enrichment in the commercial law and subsequently the author presents his personal view of the problem and the effects of the unjust enrichment, especially on the question of limitation period, are considered briefly. The final chapter consists...
