Non-existence as a new institution of Czech law
Truhličková, Tereza ; Hendrychová, Michaela (advisor) ; Šustek, Petr (referee)
1 Non-existence as a new institution of Czech law Abstract: This thesis deals with non-existence, an institution that has been introduced with the Civil Code 89/2012 Coll. as another consequence of defective legal acts in addition to invalidity. The aim of this thesis is to provide an analysis of the institution of non- existence in a broader context. The thesis is divided into seven chapters, including the introduction and the conclusion. For the purposes of a comprehensive interpretation, a general introduction of legal acts and their associated institutes will also be given. The first three chapters contain an analysis of legal facts and, in particular, legal acts. First, the notion or concept of legal fact is defined (including its historical development), followed by the definition of legal act as well as the conceptual changes to this notion. Subsequently, the conceptual features of a legal act (the will and its expression, the focus on producing legal consequences, and the recognition of the manifestation of will as a legal act) and the essential elements of a legal act (the elements of the subject, the elements of the will, the elements of the expression of will, and the elements of the object of the legal act) are discussed. The interpretation of the conceptual features and essential elements of a...

Non-existence as a new institution of Czech law
Bláha, Václav ; Zvára, Michael (referee)
Non-existence as a new institution of Czech law Abstract The aim of the thesis is to examine the institute of non-existence which is new in the Czech law. Therefore, the beginning of the thesis is arranged in order to make clear the chronological development of civil law in terms of wrongful conduct and/or wrongful legal act sanctions. Historically, the General Civil Code (ABGB) is of particular relevance. ABGB was an important civil code not only on our territory but also in Austria and other countries of the former Habsburg Monarchy. While the original text of this Code sanctioned wrongful legal acts by invalidity ("Ungültigkeit"), the 1916 amendment introduced another term into the Code, taken from the German Civil Code (BGB), and namely "Nichtigkeit". Although this term means "invalidity" as well, it was mistakenly translated into Czech by the word "nicotnost" (literally "nothingness" in English). In the thesis, the legal situation in the period from 1948 till 2014 is discussed briefly, mentioning in particular the Family Act which, commencing from 1998, included, in addition to the term "invalidity" (of marriage), also the term "non-existence" (of marriage) stating that no marriage is formed in these cases. The following part of the thesis deals with the applicable law. The problems of legal act, its...

Consequences of defects in legal acts
Piatka, Juraj ; Hendrychová, Michaela (advisor) ; Šustek, Petr (referee)
The purpose of this master's degree thesis is to analyze a fundamental area of Civil Law - the consequences of defects in legal acts. The reason for this research is that this area of law is of great importance mainly but not limited to the contractual obligations and the numerous changes introduced by the new statute, the Act No. 89/2012 Coll., The Civil Code, gave rise to a large number of potential issues. The main objective is to provide a general overview of legal consequences of defective legal acts in order to better understand the context and the development in this area. The differences between particular consequences are appropriately highlighted and, where relevant, the paper provides comparison with the former legislation and points out the significant case law. The paper is composed of the Introduction, three Chapters and the Conclusion. Chapter One is introductory and defines the concept of "legal acts" and its essentials. In addition, a notion of defects in legal acts is presented. Chapter Two is an analysis of the various consequences of defects in legal acts. It is subdivided into four parts. Part One describes the new concept of non-existence in detail and the most disputable areas are discussed. It is argued that the concept of non- existence, although theoretically sound, does...

Non-existence as a new institution of Czech law
Buchal, Jiří ; Hendrychová, Michaela (advisor) ; Šustek, Petr (referee)
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. The aim of this diploma thesis is to comprehensively analyse the legal institution of non-existence. The paper is divided into eight chapters, the introduction and the conclusion. For the purpose of analysing non-existence comprehensively the paper focuses also on systematic explanation of legal acts themselves. The first chapter brings the definition of legal act, deals with different ways to enter into legal acts as well as forms of legal acts provided by law or by agreement of contracting parties. The second chapter focuses on describing the principles of legal act whilst aiming especially on manifestation of will as the essence of legal act. Besides that this chapter deals with creation of legal acts and their legal effects. The chapter three defines the four essential elements of legal acts - the elements of subject, the elements of will, the elements of manifestation of will and the elements of the object of legal acts. The fourt chapter continues with description of legal acts that suffer from defect in one or more of their essential elements,...
