COMPENSATION FOR PERSONAL INJURY ABSTRACT The aim of this thesis is to elaborate on the following questions: Whether and to what extent the compensation for personal injury (or, in other words, compensation for non- pecuniary damage to bodily and mental health) under the new Czech Civil Code (Act No. 89/2012 Coll.) ("NCC") means a (r)evolution in comparison to the previous Czech Civil Code (Act No. 40/1964 Coll.) ("OCC") and what conclusions can be drawn in this regard when comparing the NCC to selected European jurisdictions. In order to answer these questions, the comparative method as the main method was chosen for the purpose of this paper. In particular, this thesis compares the NCC to the OCC on one hand and to German law, Austrian law, French law, English law, PETL and DCFR on the other hand. The paper consists of four main parts: compensation for personal injury in the selected European jurisdictions, under the OCC, under the NCC, and the comparative part. Each of those parts addresses the same three principal issues: fundamental questions of tort law with the focus on compensation of non-pecuniary damage; compensation for personal injury of direct (primary) victims and that of indirect (secondary, third party) victims.

Hamran, Richard ; Sovová, Olga (advisor) ; Císařová, Dagmar (referee)
LEGAL LIABILITY OF A DOCTOR The purpose of my thesis is to analyse briefly the issue of legal liability of a doctor for his professional duties. Stemming form relevant legislation, the doctor owes many duties and responsibilities and his failure to obey them properly could lead to various liabilities. The aim of the paper is not to consider in a detail all the questions concerning the liability of the doctor. On the contrary, I try to outline particular kinds of the doctor's liability in a systematic way and furthermore to scrutinize some partial issues relating thereto. The reason that led me to my research is the fact that the more human rights are recognized the more prudent and diligent the doctor must be while treating his patients. Legal approach towards medical treatment has changed over past few decades but is the society and especially affected professionals ready for this change? This thesis is divided into two parts having eight chapters altogether. Each of chapters deals with different aspects of the subject matter. The introductory chapter points out basics of the medical law and gives a brief look at the evolution of a legal approach towards the liability of the doctor during ages. The rest of the first part briefly characterizes common premises of the legal liability in general and...
