Sáblíková, Martina ; Patěk, Daniel (advisor) ; Štenglová, Ivanka (referee)
- The course of general meetings of a joint-stock company The topic of this thesis is the course of general meetings of a joint-stock company. A joint stock-company is a limited company (a stock corporation), that means a company when membership in this company is connected with the obligation of investment contribution, either monetary or non-monetary, and that upon its formation, or when increasing its registered capital. The supreme body of a joint-stock company is the general meeting. The general meeting is a compulsory formed body regardless of the internal system of joint-stock companies, no matter if it is a monistic or dualistic board structure joint-stock company. With regard to the fact that it is compulsory, it is evident that the general meeting plays an important role in the functioning of the company itself.

These are situations that precede general meetings, e.g. convening, and also situations after their closing. Within this thesis is also partly compared current legislation relating to joint stock companies, Act No. 90/2012 Sb., law on business corporations and cooperatives, with the previous related legislation, that means Act No. 513/1991 Sb., the Commercial...

Pytela, David ; Patěk, Daniel (referee) ; Zahradníčková, Marie (referee)
By January the first is applicable legal regulation that will bring very important changes into private branch of legal order. It is especially the "New Civil Code" and the "Commercial Corporation Act". This "new regulation" will affect even the General Meeting of Limited Liability Company. Because I think it is important to identify the changes that the new regulation brings into regulation of General Meeting of Limited Liability Company and because General Meeting of Limited Liability Company is of interest to me I decided to work out a thesis on this matter called "General Meeting of Limited Liability Company after recodification". Because this matter is quite enormous I do not focus on whole General Meeting of Limited Liability Company but only on selected parts concerning its operation, calling, quorum, appearance and procedure. In my thesis I do not focus only on changes connected with the new regulation but also on unclear or problematical parts of existing regulation (regulation applicable until December the thirty-first) from the perspective whether and if how the new regulation has dealt with them. I use opinions stated by the jurisprudence and the judicature, especially by the Supreme court of the Czech Republic, but foremost my own view and opinions. The new regulation as a whole in...

Szmuda, Jozef ; Černá, Stanislava (advisor) ; Josková, Lucie (referee)
Abuse of majority and minority votes within the corporate enterprises This thesis analyzes the possible abuse of majority and minority votes within the corporate enterprises in light of a fundamental changes of civil legislation brought by the Act No. 89/2012 Coll., the Civil Code of the Czech Republic, as amended, and the Act No. 90/2012 Coll., on business companies and societies (Czech Business Corporations Act) as amended. This examination provides a baseline comparison of new legal rules with the existing legislation and highlights the most important changes that were adopted in the form of the new regulation. On the basis of the analysis, the author evaluates the advantages of the new law and attempts to identify problems that may occur when the law comes into force. The applicability of the existing case law to the new legislation was one of the objectives of the paper. The author came to the conclusion that the applicability of the law is limited to the fundamental legal principles and rules only. The reasoning is that the abuse of majority and minority votes in the corporate enterprises is of such a special nature that it would not be desirable to create any definite rules of interpretation for all the cases or the so-called typical cases. On the contrary, the court should be very careful...
