V ANGLICKÉM JAZYCE The aim of my thesis was to carry out a detailed analysis of one of the most important institutions of the law of succession - testament. My secondary objective was to compare briefly the Czech legislation of testament with the legislation of Germany, which was one of the sources of inspiration for the Czech recodification works. Legislation of this institute after the adoption of the Civil Code significantly transformed and strengthened the testing freedom of the testator. Testament is one of the three forms of testamentary disposition that make it possible for the testator to decide how his property is going to be managed after his death. The first of the six chapters deals generally with law of succession, explains the key terms, concepts and important leading principles. Furthermore this chapter presents various prerequisites of inheritance and generally characterizes and defines the institute of testament. In the second chapter, I am aiming to outline the historical development of testament which roots can be tracked back to Roman law. In the following subchapters I am describing the legislation changes of this institution in our country with particular attention to the ABGB, another important source of inspiration, and also to the form of the institute in the period of...

Testate succession
Pecha, Martin ; Pohl, Tomáš (advisor) ; Elischer, David (referee)
The law of succession is a branch of civil law that deals with devolution of property rights and duties of a decedent to his heirs. The new Civil Code that came into force in 2014 brought considerable changes in the field of the law of succession. Finally, the legal regulation pays proper attention to the law of succession and testate succession. After more than sixty years, there were restored legal institutions such as Clauses of lesser importance in a testament (condition, determination of time or a mandate), inheritance contract, privileged wills, legacy, vulgar substitution or fideicommissum. Not only because of these institutions can a testator finally organize freely and according to his own will his property situation mortis causa. The purpose of my diploma thesis is to analyze the testate succession according to the Czech Civil code that became effective on the 1st of January 2014. The thesis is divided into two parts. The first part is split into five chapters that deal with individual prerequisites of succession. The prerequisites of succession are as follows: the death of a testator, the existence of a decedent's estate, the capacity of an heir to inherit, the legal ground of succession and the acceptance/non-refusal of inheritance. Meeting all prerequisites of succession is crucial to...

Testament
Šmat, Ondřej ; Thöndel, Alexandr (advisor) ; Frinta, Ondřej (referee)
The main goal of this thesis is the complex description of the testament. The problems of this ancient and utmost important instrument of law, which is given to the testator to decide who will get his property after his death, is comprehensively described in the five chapters of this work. This thesis mainly focuses on the key element in the Czech civil law of current time, which is the new civil code that brings severe changes especially to the hereditary law. Major differences can be seen especially in comparison with the so called socialistic civil codes. The new civil law regulation surpasses the ideologically motivated and oversimplified provisions of these old laws. The most important changes are bound with the new basic principles, especially with the testator's will as a leading principle of the hereditary law. This principle is in fact mostly applied in the testament law; therefore the new civil code has great impact on the examined topic. The first chapter of this work is dedicated to the creation of testament as the instrument of law in the beginnings of civilization. It includes further development in several ancient states and the chapter is closed with the more detailed analysis of the base source of the modern civil law, the roman private law. The second chapter describes history and...
