Idea bezpieczeństwa prawnego w polskim prawie spadkowym

Paweł Mącik

Katolicki Uniwersytet Lubelski Jana Pawła II

Abstrakt w języku angielskim: The purpose of this paper is to present the issues of legal protection within inheritance law. A court decision made in the case of the ascertainment of inheritance, acquisition, or registered deed of succession, constitute the only proofs of legal succession, so their amendment or revocation is permissible only in the special cases indicated in the Act. Time and procedure limitations on amendments in respect of succession can potentially affect the accepted principle of justice. However, the State protects inheritance law and at the same time upholds legal protection. The fact that the legislator facilitated such a mode of procedure attests to the fact that legal stability and security of transactions are valued more than the protection of legal succession. However, this does not mean that the principle of justice and the protection of legal succession are not applied. Au contraire a person who is not a successor has the possibility to assert the protection of his/her rights at a particular time. On the other hand, the person who is a successor has to invoke the statutory presumption and has to have the sense of legal security guaranteed by the legislator which is required of him/her. As a consequence the conflict between the protection of legal succession and legal security arises. This presents the opportunity for reflection on the status of Polish inheritance law which will be provided in this article.

Model precedensu z analogii

Dr Maciej Koszowski

Politechnika Śląska

Abstrakt w języku angielskim: Apart from the concise presentation of the rule-based model of binding judicial precedent, this article describes two basic accounts of analogical reasoning in precedential law. The first account has been named: the factual model and the second: the rational model. This terminology was adopted due to the fact that the judgment of similarity within the factual model is deemed to be a direct result of the very facts of the cases being compared, or of the unfathomed mystical workings of human intuition (emotions), or the outcome desired for the case at hand. The rational model, in turn, is based upon the notion of precedential reasons and casual facts, i.e. the facts that are relevant in the light of such reasons. Dependence upon these two notions makes the rational model more predictable and explicable. In certain circumstances, however, analogy to proceeds needs therein some additional factors which do not stem from the gist of that model. The factual model, unpredictable though it may seem to be, is faster and apt to generate just, or socially desirable, conclusions, especially when utilized by a person of a great legal knowledge and experience.

Dowód z kultury (cultural evidence)

Mgr Anna Koropczuk

Uniwersytet Wrocławski

Abstrakt w języku angielskim: This article concisely presents the question of cultural evidence and the way it is conducted on the basis of judicial proceedings. It also highlights the distinction in the manner cultural evidence is considered on the basis of common and continental law. The author assumes that modern society is a multicultural society. It is a society in which role models and patterns of conduct are only created within the contact and conflict of different cultures. Solutions proposed in the article refer to the cases based on the cultural defense, where the culture is treated as a factor determining the actions of individuals. Cultural evidence has to be – in the authors’ opinion – a mean to demonstrate the clearance of the individual to take action subjected to the proceeding. Hence, the author outlines the procedure in case of the necessity of conducting such evidence.

Pojęcie uczciwości w wykonywaniu zawodu adwokata

Mgr Tomasz Cyrol

Uniwersytet Jagielloński

Abstrakt w języku angielskim: How to understand fairness in the profession of advocate? It is obvious that the concept of fairness includes the lawful behavior. Lawful understood as comply with the „letter of law”. But the concept of fairness consists of other elements. Those are the compliance with the „spirit of law” and simply with the interests of client. The article describes different actions and influence exerting theories as examples of situations where conflicts between lawful actions and the interest of the client may appear. The conclusion of the article is that advocates have to work in a „fair” way. They are allowed to bend this rule under some circumstances but in those cases they are obliged to prove that they didn’t behave in an unlawful way and that their not fair behavior was in the interest of their clients. It is probably easier to behave in a fair way than to find justification for unfair such behavior.

Prequel do Hartowskiego Postscriptum – brakujące ogniwo w debacie Harta z Dworkinem

Dr hab. Andrzej Grabowski

Uniwersytet Jagielloński

Abstrakt w języku angielskim: In his translator’s note to the H.L.A Hart’s paper New Challenge to Legal Positivism, Andrzej Grabowski describes the historical details of Hart’s Madrid lecture and the changes of the original Spanish text, introduced in the translation. He argues that Hart’s paper can be regarded as the prequel to the ‘Postscript’ from 1994, since the lecture deals with the criticism of Dworkin against the Hartian version of legal positivism and some important parts of them (from Section II) were in extenso included in the ‘Postscript’. The translator also emphasises the importance of Hart’s lecture as a text-source of information, which can be used in the contemporary debate on the inclusive legal positivism and for the critical reconstruction of Hart’s theoretical position.

Nowe wyzwanie dla pozytywizmu prawniczego

Prof. Herbert L.A. Hart

Uniwersytet Oksfordzki

Abstrakt w języku angielskim: In his lecture, delivered at the Department of the Philosophy of Law of the Autonomous University of Madrid on 29 October 1979, H.L.A. Hart directly responds to Ronald Dworkin’s attack on Legal Positivism, launched in Taking Rights Seriously. In the Sections I–II, Hart explicates his version of Legal Positivism by means of three central positivist theses: the Thesis of the Conceptual Separation of Law and Morals, the Thesis of the Social Sources of Law, and the Thesis of Judicial Discretion. Next, in Section III, he discusses Dworkin’s fundamental objections against the positivist theory of judicial discretion and claims that none of them seem convincing. Finally, in Sections IV–V, Hart analyses a new, herculean theory of adjudication, proposed by Dworkin as a „middle way theory” between the classic theories of Natural Law and Legal Positivism. In his answer to the criticism of the positivist Rule of Recognition, Hart claims that there is no reason why this rule, in certain jurisdictions, would not predict the use of the herculean procedure among the criteria that it provides for the identification of the law. He also states that the use of the herculean method of adjudication is unacceptable for the lawyers and that an impracticable character of this method is easy to demonstrate by referring to the case of the wicked legal systems, in which the principles underlying the law are morally bad. Thus, Hart concludes that instead of a sound vía media between Natural Law and Legal Positivism, the theory of Dworkin seems to offer the confusion of them.

Sztuczne sieci neuronalne w modelowaniu rozumowań prawniczych . O problemach wynikających ze specyfiki prawa

Mgr Rafał Michalczak

Uniwersytet Jagielloński

Abstrakt w języku angielskim: The purpose of this paper is to describe the application of artificial neural networks in modeling legal reasoning. In particular, the paper will be focused on specific problems which may occur only on the ground of legal reasoning and are difficult from the artificial intelligence perspective. The focal point of the paper is not to provide technical details of analyzed systems but to point out parts of legal conceptual framework which are inconsistent with classical techniques of designing of expert system. Paper consists description of a few legal expert systems based on artificial neural networks. Each of them is the basis for presentation of particular feature of legal reasoning which are considered difficult from the AI point of view e.g. vague concepts, open-texture, analogy.

Superfluum i nadwyżki znaczeniowe jako przykłady redundancji tekstu prawnego

Mgr Maciej Kłodawski

Uniwersytet Jagielloński

Abstrakt w języku angielskim: The subject of the paper is the notion of redundancy, which in the text of law may be perceived both from systemic point of view and linguistic perspective. Within systemic standpoint, the paper focuses on superfluum issue, which occurs when one provision is repeated by another legal provision (full superfluum) and when part of one provision becomes „new” provision (or its part) in the same or another legal text (partial superfluum). These manifestations of systemic redundancy are not always results of legislative mistakes (as might be noticed during analysis of selected examples of superfluum derived from Polish legal texts), but the evaluation of each case of superfluum depends on criterions, which in Polish legal system are incomplete and imprecise. In the second part, the paper discusses one kind of linguistic redundancy – semantic redundancy, which appears in pleonasms, tautologies and pleonastic analytisms. It is argued here, in contrary to majority of previous descriptions of semantic redundancy phenomenon presented in linguistics and legal theory, that some redundant expressions may be useful during interpretation of legal provisions, because in certain circumstances they may have pragmatic values. These values are: enhancing meaning, specifying meaning and explicating meaning. Furthermore, in some cases aforementioned pragmatic values may be reached by context-independent redundant expressions, what has been shown basing on examples from Polish legal texts.

Rehabilitacja namiętności? Emocje a postulat bezstronności

Dr Maciej Wojciechowski

Uniwersytet Gdański

Abstrakt w języku angielskim: Traditional philosophical tension between a reason and emotions has been a subject of increasing objections. As a result emotions are defended by pointing their connections with beliefs, value judgments to name just a few strategies. This paper also takes up an attempt of this sort showing that traditional definition of emotions with features of the process of application of law makes a threat from the emotions for the impartiality of a judge much less warranted than it might seem. What is more, an attempt is taken up to argue that feeling can be a chance for impartiality conceived as argumentative openness.

Prawo jako dyskurs o życiu – antropologia dogmatyczna Pierre’a Legendre’a

Dr Tatiana Chauvin

Uniwersytet Warszawski

Abstrakt w języku angielskim: In the present text the author introduces the concept of dogmatic anthropology – the original idea of French philosopher, lawyer and psychoanalyst Pierre Legendre. In this conception the positive order of law should be completed by „another scene”, i.e. human unconscious. The law and namely the justification of normativity is profoundly dependent of Freudian constructions of Totem and Taboo and Lacanian conception of mirror and the role of the father as big Other. Psychoanalytic categories serve to explain the sense of legitimacy of the normative order. Our time must acknowledge his uncertain and terrifying condition and recognize that the basic reflection focuses on question: why have the law? The role of the law refers to the establishment of a zone of Prohibition and principle of filiation. This allows a subject might be born in the institutional order and be protected by it. In this sense, the subject is captured by the institution and the law become the creator of life. P. Legendre stresses the importance of the Legal Text as a source of normativity establishing identity through words.
