Burden of proof in civil procedure
Loutchan, Petr ; Macková, Alena (advisor) ; Pohl, Tomáš (referee)
Thesis title: Burden of proof in civil procedure This paper deals with burden of proof. The aim of this thesis is to provide a broader framework for this burden, since it is absolutely crucial in order to form a proper understanding of this topic. The first chapter mentions principles that are common to all legal procedures and those that are applicable only within civil procedure. These general procedural principles need to be interpreted in accordance with the European Convention on Human Rights, which is binding upon Czech law. They also serve as a tool for a deeper integration of European law. The principles that are only applicable within civil procedure are usually presented in pairs consisting of principles of opposite meaning and are never really used in their pure form. The second chapter deals with basic rules of Evidence. It mentions the definition of Evidence, it makes a clear distinction between logical methods of proving and procedural ones, followed by definition of the purpose of Evidence. It also mentions topics that do not need to be proven, since there is some type of presumption governing these issues or they are somehow known to the court. This chapter emphasizes tools that simplify the process of proving. It also defines basic terms of Evidence. It does not try to be a complex...

Dobrovičová, Michaela ; Pohl, Tomáš (advisor) ; Macková, Alena (referee)
1 The burden of proof in the disputes for unjust enrichment Abstract This diploma thesis deals with the institute of the burden of proof. Its aim is to analyse the distribution of the burden of proof in disputes for unjust enrichment.

The first chapter contains the general characteristics and interpretation of key concepts as well as related institutes, whose basic knowledge will be a key to other parts of the text. It explains the differences between the concepts of proof, counter-proof and objection. It then analyses the standard of proof needed to prove certain facts. It also describes the state of non liquet and analyses the individual procedural obligations and burdens of the parties. The subject of the second chapter of the thesis is the term of the burden of proof, which can be divided into the objective and subjective burden of proof. The subjective burden of proof can be further subdivided into the abstract and concrete burden of proof. The chapter goes on to analyse selected theories of distribution of the burden of proof, while not neglecting the negative theory of proof. In the partial conclusion,...
