Locus standi of non-privileged applicants to bring an action for annulment
Moravcová, Eva ; Svoboda, Pavel (advisor) ; Král, Richard (referee)
Locus standi of non-privileged applicants to bring an action for annulment Abstract Every developed legal system is bound to have a mechanism for checking the procedural and substantive legality of measures adopted by its institutions. In the European Union it was of significant importance to create a system of control over the acts of the EU institutions given the democratic deficit within the Union and the limited supervisory role of the European Parliament. Binding acts of the EU institutions are subject to review through a number of routes provided by the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) and the Treaty on the European Union (TEU), namely action for annulment (Art. 263 TFEU), the plea of illegality (Art. 277 TFEU), the preliminary reference (Art. 267 TFEU) and the action for damages (Arts. 268 and 340 TFEU). The Court has consistently endeavoured to treat the several strands as a complex and coherent system of judicial review within the Union based on the rule of law. The action for annulment under Art. 263 TFEU plays a crucial role for individuals as it is in practice the only direct way open to individuals to challenge the acts of EU institutions. The main purpose of my thesis is to examine whether the current wording of Art. 263(4) TFEU provides for individuals a sufficiently...

Compensation for damage caused by breach of competition rules
Holásek, Martin ; Patěk, Daniel (advisor) ; Pelikán, Robert (referee)
66 Compensation for damage caused by breach of competition rules Abstract This thesis analyses actions for damages for infringements of the competition law, an area newly regulated by Directive 2014/104/EU of the European Parliament and of the council of 26 November 2014 on certain rules governing actions for damages under national law for infringements of the competition law provisions of the Member States and of the European Union. A main purpose of this thesis is to describe specific aspects of actions for damages for infringements of the competition law, introduce alternatives to provisions of the Directive, identify the impact of the Directive on successful private enforcement of damages and evaluate a new proposal for a statute transposing the Directive into Czech law. The thesis is divided into eight chapters. Chapter One contains a brief introduction which is followed in Chapter Two by an evaluation of the necessity of this Directive and of its scope. Chapter Three deals with indirect purchaser's standing and passing-on defense, where it is noted that this change brings more complexity into the proceedings and the lack of indirect purchasers' motivation to sue is still persistent. Chapter Four describes certain possibilities of collective redress. Chapter Five is the main chapter of this thesis and...
