Usurious contracts within the context of civil law
Šejdová, Kateřina ; Elischer, David (advisor) ; Dvořák, Jan (referee)
Central point of the thesis at hand is the effort to clarify legal consequences arising out of the conclusion of the usurious contract. Its primary aim is to determine whether the usurious contract is voidable or rather null and void and whether it is possible to uphold the usurious contract either by applying the concept of partial invalidity or by judicial balancing of the grossly disproportionate considerations arising out of the usurious contract. This thesis is structured into two parts. The first chapter of the first part briefly introduces paradigms of the rules related to the usury. The second chapter analyzes individual characteristics of the usury. In the third chapter author argues for the possibility to review the contracts (showing the disproportion of considerations, defects of the abused's will and the element of abuse, however, not fulfilling all the characteristics of the usurious contracts due to narrow definition of the usury) by the good-manners-test. Second part of this thesis is divided into three chapters. The first chapter analyzes consequences resulting from the violation of the usury prohibition and their impact on the usurer's and the abused's legal position. This chapter also deals with the difficulties in terms of interpretation of rules governing invalidity of legal...

Non-existence as a new legal institution of Czech law This paper deals with non-existence as a legal insitution that has been added to the traditional consequence of defective legal acts - invalidity - during the recodification of Czech private law.

Rohlena, Jan ; Svoboda, Pavel (advisor) ; Pítra, Vladimír (referee)
Revocation and Invalidity of European Trade Mark Revocation and invalidity of European trade mark, more precisely termed as Community trade mark (hereinafter as "CTM"), is a specific field of trade mark law of the European Union. It is Council Regulation (EC) No 207/2009 of 26 February 2009 on the Community trade mark which forms a legal basis in this regard. The practice of the Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market and especially the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the European Union play very significant role in this area. The practice of the Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market and the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the European Union regarding Directive 2008/95/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 October 2008 to approximate the laws of the Member States relating to trade marks is also relevant for the revocation and invalidity of CTM as this Directive provides for the revocation and invalidity of national trade marks in similar manner. The aim of this thesis is to analyse the nature of revocation and invalidity of CTM and individual grounds for revocation and invalidity as well as selected related issues, e.g. of procedural nature. This thesis is divided into four chapters. First chapter briefly introduces the institute of CTM and trade...

Invalid and putative marriage
Jakubčíková, Lucie ; Hendrychová, Michaela (advisor) ; Šustek, Petr (referee)
The aim of my thesis is to describe and to compare individual aspects of invalid and putative marriage in the Czech Republic and the Netherlands and to analyse the reasons which lead to existence of these marriages. The reason for which I have chosen this topic is the fact that marriage is one of the most important legal institutions of family law and since the commencement of the new statute 89/2012 Sb., some requirements for marriage have been changed. The Dutch law is based on very similar principles as the Czech law, but the application of these principles is different in many ways. The thesis is composed of six chapters, the introduction and the conclusion. The first chapter of my thesis characterizes marriage as a legal institution in terms of its concept, purpose and function. It also compares marriage to other forms of living arrangements that are possible in the Czech Republic. The second chapter focuses on formation of marriage, the possible forms of entering into marriage, and analyses the conditions that must be met in the marriage to be valid, including special requirements for entering into marriage in unusual situations. The next chapter characterizes the legal consequences of marriage defects depending on their severity. The fourth chapter deals with invalid marriage and divides...

Dosoudilová, Petra ; Švestka, Jiří (advisor) ; Salač, Josef (referee)

The first part deals with the old regulation under the Act No. 40/1964 Coll., the second one the new regulation under the Act.
