"JURIDICAL ANALYSIS ON THE LEGAL POWER OF COLLATERAL SEIZURE ON MATRIMONIAL JOINT ASSETS IN THE DECISION OF MANNA RELIGIOUS COURT NO. 54/PDT.G/2019/PA.MNA BASED ON ISLAMIC LAW." Bengkoelen Justice : Jurnal Ilmu Hukum 11, no. 1 (May 7, 2021): 26–34. http://dx.doi.org/10.33369/j_bengkoelenjust.v11i1.15786.

The objectives of the study were to find out and analyze: (1) the reasons of collateral seizure on matrimonial joint assets where it can guarantee the Plaintiff's rights and (2) The views of Islamic law on the collateral seizure of matrimonial joint assets in the decision of Manna Religious Court No.54/Pdt.g/2019/PA.Mna. This study was normative legal research. The reasons for the seizure of the collateral filed by the Plaintiff in the lawsuit case No.54/Pdt.G/2019/PA.Mna were: a) the reasons for collateral seizure on matrimonial joint assets were due to the Plaintiff’s claim in the lawsuit concerning the assets under the Defendant's authority; b). Judge panel considered the rules based on Al-Qur'an surah An-Nisa verse 32, regulation in Marriage Law, and Compilation of Islamic Law that state the right of Matrimony Joint Assets belongs to both parties, and since the assets were under the Defendant's authority, a collateral seizure is considered necessary; c) the reasons of collateral seizure on matrimonial joint assets were also to provide legal certainty and equal rights to each party; d) to ensure the integrity of the assets, to get them to remain maintained and present; and e) the seizure was to avoid the right transfer of the asset to other parties and to prevent the assets from being misused or damaged. The legal power of collateral seizure of matrimonial joint assets in the decision of Manna Religious Court No.54/Pdt.g/2019/PA.Mna could give the Plaintiff's legal rights in writing, but when viewed from Islamic law it could not be able to achieve the objectives of Islamic law itself, namely the benefit and usefulness principles. This was due to the absence of sanctions and strong foundations for those who did not carry out the decision. The court only granted the seizure stamp and joint assets seizure but did not decide the execution over the joint assets, so the Plaintiff's rights could not be fully protected. Islamic law considered the collateral seizure on matrimonial joint assets in the decision of the Manna Religious Court No.54/Pdt.g/2019/PA.Mna as something that is not prohibited and mentioned in surah Al-Baqarah verse 188.

Full textAbstract:
Article 31 paragraph (1) and paragraph (2) of the Indonesian Bankruptcy Law stipulate that all seizures that have been determined on the debtor's assets are null and void since the bankruptcy verdict is pronounced and since then the only validity is general seizure. However, in its practice various seizures are still stipulated on bankrupt assets ranging from civil, criminal and tax seizures. This paper discusses the forms of seizure in the bankruptcy process, the position of general seizure of other seizures in bankruptcy and the impact of the position of general seizure on debt payments to creditors. The research method used is normative legal research using secondary data collected through library studies and document studies. The various data were then analyzed descriptively and qualitatively. This writing found that there are rules in other laws such as Article 39 paragraph (2) KUHAP and Article 6 paragraph (1) Law No. 19 of 2000 that have ruled out the position of general seizure. The experts in each field of science also have different views regarding the position of general seizure. This condition has resulted in the emergence of friction between law enforcement, inconsistency of judges’ decisions, length of bankruptcy proceedings, injustice, unclear data on bankruptcy assets and reduced bankruptcy assets. Therefore, the understanding of law enforcement regarding legal principles, especially the principle of lex specialis derogate legi generalis, needs to be improved. The use of prejudgment seizure in the bankruptcy process must be socialized to maximize control over bankrupt assets. To avoid prolonged process of bankruptcy, the bankruptcy law should limit the time period for the settlement of assets to the curator.AbstrakPasal 31 ayat (1) dan ayat (2) UU Kepailitan mengatur bahwa segala sita yang telah ditetapkan atas harta kekayaan debitor menjadi hapus semenjak putusan pailit diucapkan dan semenjak itu satu-satunya yang berlaku adalah sita umum. Akan tetapi pada praktiknya berbagai sita tetap ditetapkan atas harta pailit mulai dari sita perdata, pidana dan pajak. Tulisan ini membahas tentang bentuk-bentuk sita dalam proses kepailitan, kedudukan sita umum terhadap sita lainnya dalam kepailitan dan dampak dari kedudukan sita umum terhadap pembayaran utang kepada para kreditor. Adapun metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian hukum normatif dengan menggunakan data sekunder yang dikumpulkan melalui kegiatan studi perpustakaan maupun studi dokumen. Berbagai data tersebut kemudian dianalisis secara deskriptif-kualitatif. Penulisan ini menemukan bahwa adanya aturan dalam UU lain seperti Pasal 39 ayat (2) KUHAP dan Pasal 6 ayat (1) UU No. 19 Tahun 2000 telah mengesampingkan kedudukan sita umum. Ahli masing-masing bidang ilmu juga memiliki pandangan yang berbeda terkait kedudukan sita umum. Kondisi ini berdampak pada munculnya pergesekan antara penegak hukum, inkonsistensi putusan hakim, lamanya proses kepailitan, terjadi ketidakadilan, ketidakjelasan data harta pailit, berkurang bahkan hilangnya harta pailit. Oleh sebab itu, pemahaman penegak hukum tentang asas hukum terutama asas lex specialis derogate legi generalis perlu ditingkatkan. Penggunaan lembaga sita jaminan dalam proses kepailitan harus disosialisasikan untuk memaksimalkan penguasaan terhadap harta pailit. Supaya proses kepailitan tidak berlarut-larut, UU kepailitan harusnya membatasi jangka waktu penyelesaian aset kepada kurator.

Full textAbstract:
Asset confiscation is one of the government's efforts to compensate for the state losses. One of the institutions that are given the authority to carry out assets confiscation based on court decisions is the Prosecutor's Office. The fact is that in carrying out judicial decisions on corruption crimes, the Prosecutor's Office experiences various obstacles in practicing the value of justice, one of which is the seizure of assets attached to mortgages. The problem of this research is how is the practice of confiscation of assets resulting from corruption in recovering state finances and how is the mechanism for confiscation of assets resulting from corruption with mortgages attached?. The assessment of the confiscation of assets that are encumbered with mortgages uses empirical juridical methods, through library research, and field research. The results of the study show that in practice, the seizure of assets result from corrupt criminal acts takes a very long time, because the time required for a case to obtain a binding court decision can take months, maybe even years. next, the mechanism for confiscation of assets by prosecutors can confiscate assets result from corruption crimes that are pledged in the Bank with mortgage rights attached, as long as the court can prove that the assets are indeed the result of corruption crimes and have permanent legal force (inkracht), because the criminal law position (public) is higher than civil law (private)

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The article discusses the shortcomings of EU policy regarding cross-border asset recovery. The identified problem is a disjointed approach to the overlapping objectives of criminal proceedings: gathering evidence and securing assets for future confiscation. In the current EU legal framework, the process of recovery of assets, understood as a sequence of functionally related activities, lacks the continuity necessary to be effective. EU cross-border cooperation instruments in criminal matters do not meet the needs of this process, as they relate to separate investigative measures. Problems in this field have been indirectly reflected in the practice of Eurojust and the ejn. The article proposes a change in the perception of the initial phase of the asset recovery process, where the objectives of identifying and locating financial assets are combined with their provisional securing. This takes place under one mechanism of cross-border cooperation (an eio), prior to issuing a regular freeze or seizure order.

The paper deals with the methods of seizure of property in criminal proceedings and with the individual institutes that may be used for this purpose. This is a form of vademecum of the financial investigation, which is currently one of the priorities of criminal policy. The paper responds to the latest development of the decision-making activities of the courts and tries to point out to certain stereotypes that are already outworn by the decision-making activities in selected decisions.

Tissot, Stéphanie. "Effectivité des droits des créanciers et protection du patrimoine familial." Thesis, Aix-Marseille, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015AIXM1083/document.
Full textAbstract:
Le droit de l’exécution forcée offre aux créanciers des voies de droit pour contraindre les débiteurs défaillants à exécuter leurs obligations à leur égard. Ce rapport d’obligation est cependant moins un lien entre deux personnes qu’un rapport entre deux patrimoines. C’est ce qui explique que les obligations s’exécutent sur les biens des débiteurs. La matière devrait donc être hermétique à la situation familiale du débiteur et ne s’intéresser qu’au patrimoine personnel de celui-ci. Cependant, malgré l’absence de personnalité juridique de la famille, il est communément question du « patrimoine familial ». Entendu au sens large, le « patrimoine familial » intéresse alors nécessairement les tiers créanciers. Certains biens en effet, font l’objet d’une protection particulière, destinée, plus largement, à protéger la famille. A la protection d’origine légale, s’ajoute éventuellement une protection conventionnelle. Le législateur offre ainsi un espace de liberté à la volonté privée, même si l’exercice de celle-ci doit aboutir à réduire le gage du créancier. L’ensemble de ces dispositions protectrices entre donc nécessairement en conflit avec le droit à l’exécution des créanciers et conduit à s’interroger sur la légitimité de l’atteinte qui en résulte. Il apparait que dans certains cas l’équilibre entre la garantie de l’effectivité du droit à l’exécution forcée du créancier et la protection légitime du patrimoine de la famille est respecté, alors que dans d’autres, il est largement menacé, voire bouleversé. Et c’est alors toute l’économie du droit de l’exécution forcée qui est remise en questionThe right to enforced performance offers creditors legal remedies for forcing defaulting debtors to perform their obligations. However, this relationship of obligation is less a tie between two people as it is a tie between two sets of assets. This explains why obligations are performed in respect of the property of the debtor. Performance should thus be entirely extraneous to the debtor's family situation and concern only the debtor's personal assets. Yet despite the fact that families do not have legal personality, "community property" (patrimoine familial) commonly comes into play. In the broad sense of the term, "community property" is thus necessarily of interest to third-party creditors. Certain property is afforded special protection generally intended to protect the family. In addition to legal protection, contractual protection may also apply. The legislation in this area thus allows for a certain degree of flexibility with respect to private will, even if it ultimately reduces a creditor's claim. This protection thus necessarily conflicts with the creditor's right to performance and raises the question of the legitimacy of the interference it causes. In some cases, the balance is maintained between guaranteeing creditors' ability to exercise their right to enforced performance and ensuring legitimate protection of family assets. In other cases, however, this balance is threatened or even upset, calling the entire tenor and intent of the right to enforced performance into question

Lauvergnat, Ludovic. "L'insaisissabilité." Thesis, Paris 10, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020PA100055.
Full textAbstract:
Notion cardinale du droit des procédures civiles d’exécution, intéressant tout autant le droit des biens que le droit des obligations, l’insaisissabilité peine toutefois à trouver son identité. Les analyses positives qui en sont faites, qu’elles envisagent l’insaisissabilité en contemplation de ce qui ne peut être saisi ou comme une dérogation au droit de gage général, apparaissent lacunaires et imprécises opérant un mélange des genres avec l’immunité d’exécution, l’indisponibilité ou encore les différentes techniques de divisions patrimoniales. Notion fonctionnelle, l’insaisissabilité se singularise par sa finalité. Elle poursuit une fonction sociale, celle du respect de la dignité appréciée subjectivement du débiteur par la conservation des biens qui tendent à lui assurer sa subsistance ainsi que celle de sa famille. L’insaisissabilité porte ainsi sur un ensemble de biens réservés et catégorisés constitutif au sein du patrimoine du débiteur d’une masse distincte et intangible, le patrimoine d’insaisissabilité. Ce véritable patrimoine d’affectation répond à un régime spécifique, élaboré autour de critères particuliers, à la fois d’intégration mais aussi d’exclusion. La fonction sociale de l’insaisissabilité justifie enfin qu’elle puisse transcender l’objet de l’insaisissabilité, à savoir le bien protégé, pour s’épanouir à travers une technique nouvelle : la saisie-échangeThe undistrainability is a fundamental concept of the law of civil enforcement procedures and it concerns property law as well as contract law. Nevertheless, it seems to have difficulties finding its own distinctive identity. Positive analyses have been carried out, some of them focusing on the goods which cannot be seized, others considering the undistrainability as a derogation to the right of lien in general. These analyses are deficient and inaccurate as they create confusion with the exemption from execution, unavailability, and also the different techniques of patrimonial division.As a functional concept, the undistrainability is characterized by its purpose. It has a social function as it helps respect the debtors' dignity which is subjectively assessed through the preservation of the personal assets necessary to their subsistence and that of their families.Thus, the undistrainability concerns a restricted set of categorized goods which constitute a distinct and intangible body within the debtor's property : The unseizable assets.These special-purpose assets are submitted to specific rules elaborated from particular criteria, based on integration as well as exclusion. Last of all, the social function of the undistrainability justifies the fact that it can transcend the unseizable - and protected - asset itself, and reach a larger dimension through a new technique : The exchange seizure

La Convention des Nations Unies contre la corruption (CNUCC) a érigé en principe fondamental larestitution internationale des avoirs de la corruption. Bien que partie à la CNUCC, la France n'ajamais restitué de fonds dans le cadre de cette convention contrairement à d'autres États tels que laSuisse. Pourtant, le droit français a été considérablement renforcé au cours des dernières décenniesdans les domaines du recouvrement des avoirs criminels et de la lutte contre la corruptioninternationale. Il est même, en grande partie, conforme à la CNUCC. En outre, la France a toujoursété un État prisé par de nombreux agents publics étrangers dont l'origine licite de la fortune estparfois mise en doute. Le pays demeure également un acteur économique majeur de la scèneinternationale. Dès lors, la question de l'absence de restitution internationale par la France de biensillicites en lien avec la corruption se pose. Ce travail présente les nombreuses évolutions législatives,judiciaires et institutionnelles du droit français, lesquelles ont renforcé le cadre juridique durecouvrement des avoirs et de la lutte contre la corruption internationale. Il suggère, le cas échéant,certaines améliorations. Mais il propose également des réformes importantes afin de rendre effectif lerecouvrement en France des avoirs illicites ainsi que la restitution de biens confisqués aux Étatsvictimes de la corruptionThe United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC) has established the internationalrestitution of corruption-related assets as a fundamental principle. Although France is a State Party ofthe UNCAC, it has never returned any funds in the context of this convention unlike other Statessuch as Switzerland. However, French Law has been substantially strengthened in the areas of assetrecovery and the fight against international corruption over the last few decades. It is even largelycompliant with the UNCAC. Furthermore, France has always been attractive for wealthy foreignpublic officials whose fortune is sometimes questioned. It remains also a major economic player onthe international scale. In this context, the question arises as to why France has not so far returnedany corruption-related assets. This work presents the numerous legislative, judicial or institutionaldevelopments that have recently enhanced the French asset recovery and anti-corruption legalframework. When necessary, it suggests certain improvements. But it also proposes major reforms tomake asset recovery effective in France as well as the return of confiscated funds to the Statesvictims of corruption

Full textAbstract:
La lutte contre la délinquance de lucre et de trafic repose aujourd’hui en France sur une stratégie fondée principalement sur l’appréhension des avoirs illicites ainsi générés par cette activité. En pratique, la loi française a conféré aux magistrats, et sous certaines conditions aux enquêteurs, des prérogatives très offensives permettant de placer sous-main de justice des biens patrimoniaux très en amont de la procédure, au plus tôt, et ce indépendamment du droit de propriété et de la présomption d’innocence. Cependant, si la loi a grandement réformé le droit des saisies en créant les saisies pénales spéciales, elle n’a pas donné le cadre à un droit de l’exécution des confiscations. En effet, la confiscation reste le pivot de l’enquête pénale patrimoniale, même si les saisies pénales spéciales en sont aujourd’hui le moteur. Pourtant, l’absence d’une procédure post-sentence est de nature à ouvrir un nouvel espace d’opportunité pour permettre aux condamnés de dissiper une partie de leurs biens. C’est la raison pour laquelle le droit pénal patrimonial français devrait connaître une mise à jour pour conférer à la justice un cadre complet pour garantir que le crime ne paie pasIn France, the money-laundering and trafficking fight is based on a apprehension of the illicit assets strategy. French law give to magistrates, and under conditions to investigators, very offensive prerogatives to seize property assets very early in the proceedings and regardless of the property and the presumption of innocence rights. However, the law largely reformed law of seizures by creating special criminal seizures, it did not provide a framework for confiscation enforcement. Indeed, confiscation remains the pivot of criminal property investigation, although special criminal seizures are now the driving force. The absence of a post sentential procedure is likely to open a new space of opportunity for the convicteds to dissipate part of their property. This is the reason why French criminal law should be updated to give justice a complete framework to ensure that crime does not pay

Full textAbstract:
Кривенко, О. М. Кримінально-правова характеристика грабежу : випускна кваліфікаційна робота : 081 «Право» / О. М. Кривенко ; керівник роботи О. В. Селецький ; НУ "Чернігівська політехніка", кафедра кримінального права та правосуддя . – Чернігів, 2021. – 78 с.Актуальність дослідження полягає в тому, що грабіж є одним із найнебезпечніших насильницько-корисливих кримінальних правопорушень у будь-якій країні світу, в тому числі і в Україні. Це зумовлено тим, що при грабежі посягання на основний об’єкт здійснюється шляхом посягання на особу, її життя, здоров’я, а також власність. Незважаючи на тенденцію зниження впродовж останніх років, грабежі є кримінальними правопорушеннями, які суттєво впливають на кримінальну ситуацію в Україні. Це свідчить про широкий спектр дії цього злочинного діяння на різні сфери суспільного життя. У першому розділі досліджується історичний розвиток поняття «грабіж» у кримінально-правовому аспекті та розкривається поняття та ознаки грабежу. У другому розділі аналізуються об’єктивні та суб’єктивні ознаки складу кримінального правопорушення грабіж. У третьому розділі досліджено відмежування грабежу від суміжних складів кримінальних правопорушень та проаналізовано судову практику про розбій. Розкрито кримінальну відповідальність за грабіж у законодавстві зарубіжних країн та запропоновано шляхи вдосконалення ст. 186 Кримінального кодексу України. Наукова новизна роботи. Доведено, що у КК України грабіж відноситься до кримінальних правопорушень проти власності і його поширення властиве суспільству під час нестабільності в його соціально-економічному та політичному розвитку; дістало подальшого розвитку положення про те, що правильна кваліфікація ознак, що характеризують грабіж, надасть можливість уникнути помилок у слідчо-судовій практиці та ефективно протидіяти грабежу; запpoпoновано викласти ч. 1 ст. 186 в такій редакції: «Відкрите протиправне заволодіння чужим майном (грабіж)»; запpoпoновано загальнонаціональні заходи запобігання грабежам. Основні положення і висновки роботи обговорювалися за круглим столом на тему: «Правова система України: сучасний вимір». Основні результати проведеного дослідження викладені у одній науковій праці.
The study's relevance is that robbery is one of the most dangerous violent and mercenary criminal offences in any country globally, including Ukraine. In case of robbery, the encroachment on the main object is carried out by encroachment on the person, his life, health, and property. Despite the downward trend in recent years, robbery is a criminal offence that significantly affects the criminal situation in Ukraine. It testifies to a wide range of actions of this criminal act on various spheres of public life. The first chapter examines the historical development of the concept of "robbery" in the criminal law aspect and reveals the concept and signs of robbery. The second section analyzes the objective and subjective signs of the criminal offence of robbery. The third section examines the delimitation of robbery from related elements of criminal offences and analyzes judicial practice on robbery. The criminal liability for robbery in the legislation of foreign countries is revealed and the ways of improvement of Art. 186 of the Criminal code of Ukraine. The scientific novelty of the work. It is proved that in the Criminal Code of Ukraine, robbery refers to criminal offences against property, and its spread is inherent in society during instability in its socio-economic and political development; further developed the provision that the correct qualification of the signs that characterize the robbery will provide an opportunity to avoid errors in investigative and judicial practice and effectively combat robbery; It is proposed to state Part 1 of Art. 186 in the following wording: "Open illegal seizure of another's property (robbery)"; national robbery prevention measures have been proposed. The main provisions and conclusions of the work were discussed at a round table on the topic: "The legal system of Ukraine: the modern dimension." The main results of the study are presented in one scientific work.

Full textAbstract:
Seizures are thought to arise primarily from the cerebral cortex. However, the propagation and behavioral manifestations of seizures involve a network of both cortical and subcortical structures. The medial thalamus and upper brainstem reticular formation are crucial areas for the maintenance of normal consciousness. Bilateral involvement of these structures may be responsible for loss of consciousness during partial seizures. Therefore, we sought to investigate the role of the medial thalamus and brainstem in seizures. We performed SPECT ictal-interictal difference imaging co-registered with high-resolution MRI scans to localize regions of cerebral blood flow changes in patients undergoing inpatient monitoring for epilepsy. Ictal-interictal SPECT scans from 43 seizures in 40 patients were analyzed. The medial thalami showed SPECT difference imaging changes of >20% in 18 patients. Of patients with medial thalamic changes, the majority (13 of 18) had seizure onset in the temporal lobe, while only 1 had confirmed onset in extratemporal structures, and the remainder were non-localized. In contrast, in the 22 patients without >20% SPECT changes in the medial thalami, 6 had extratemporal onset, 6 had temporal onset, and the remainder were non-localized. In patients with temporal lobe seizures, the side of greater medial thalamic and brainstem reticular formation involvement was strongly related to SPECT injection timing such that there was a sequential pattern of ipsilateral followed by contralateral changes. Brainstem structures showed >20% SPECT changes in 27 of 43 seizures with no clear relation to temporal or extratemporal onset. We conclude that the medial thalamus is preferentially involved in seizures arising from the temporal lobes, possibly reflecting the strong connections between limbic temporal structures and the medial thalamus. Sequential involvement of ipsilateral followed by contralateral structures in the medial thalamus and upper brainstem may explain how seizures produce peri-ictal loss of consciousness despite incomplete involvement of the cerebral cortex.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis aims to reconstruct the procedural rules that apply whenever the simulation of contract becomes an issue within a civil proceeding.To this end, a different method is followed from that commonly used by the courts and in the scholarly literature, which have mostly deduced the content of these rules assuming, as a starting point, a certain solution to the problem of the nature of simulated contracts. The courts, that still adhere to the traditional doctrine of nullity of the simulated contract, state that the rules of the civil code dedicated to the action and the objection of nullity shall also apply to the action and objection of simulation. Part of the scholars, rejecting such premises, uphold interpretative solutions that are at odds with those supported by the courts. On the contrary, in this thesis, the legal notion of simulation is assumed as a starting point. Such a legal notion describes the set of facts that lead to a simulation of a contract and to the legal consequences set forth in articles 1414 and ff of the civil code; these facts are thus material to the process in which the simulation is an issue. Hence, the first part of the thesis (chapters 1 to 4) aims at framing the legal notion of simulation within the main categories of civil procedure, and starts from the definition of the legal notion of simulation by critically assessing the two main conceptions of the simulation phenomenon that emerge from the conspicuous literature on the subject: a “negative” conception, which sees the simulation as the lack of an essential element of the contract, and a “positive” conception, which sees the simulation as an agreement between the parties with the aim of excluding the legal effects of a contract between them (simulation agreement). The arguments in support of this last conception are set forth; after that, the question of the structure of the so-called “concealed contract” and the role of the simulation agreement on its formation and effectiveness is examined. The framing of the simulation in the fundamental categories of the process is then carried out through the observation of the legal effects that the simulation activity produces with regard to third parties, and the procedural classification of the substantial categories referred to in Articles 1415 and 1416 of the Italian Civil Code (in particular, unopposability). Finally, the objective scope of the process in which the ascertainment of the simulation of a contract is requested (action of simulation) is defined by critically examining the prevailing doctrine, according to which the said action aims at ascertaining the lack of a “contractual relationship”. Another doctrine is then examined, according to which simulation and nullity may be described as authonomous legal effects capable of being ascertained within a judgment having the force of res judicata. The second part (chapters 5 and 6) is dedicated to the discussion of selected issues of “procedural dynamics”, namely: a) the objection of absolute simulation, and the problem wether the judge may decide upon it ex officio in both the processes aimed at enforcing a simulated contract, and in those that aim, on the contrary, at the declaration of nullity, or at the annulment, rescission or termination of the same contract; b) the multiple facets that the issue of absolute simulation presents in the course of a forced expropriation proceeding undertaken against an “apparent owner”; c) the form of the concealed contract and the extent to which the simulants may prove a relative simulation by witnesses, particularly in the event that the relative simulation of the price of a sale contract is alleged as an objection to an avoidance action promoted by the bankruptcy trustee; d) the stading to an action of simulation; e) the objective scope of the res judicata in the same action.La tesi mira a ricostruire la disciplina processuale della simulazione negoziale, ossia le regole concernenti l'attività compiuta nel processo dalle parti e dal giudice, ogniqualvolta la simulazione di un negozio giuridico sia oggetto di allegazione, prova e decisione (nella forma della mera cognizione o dell'accertamento). Si segue, a tal fine, un metodo diverso da quello comunemente impiegato dalla giurisprudenza e dalla dottrina, le quali hanno perlopiù dedotto il contenuto di tali regole a partire dalla soluzione di volta in volta prescelta al problema della qualificazione del contratto simulato. La giurisprudenza, muovendo dalla tesi della nullità del contratto simulato, conclude per la diretta applicabilità delle norme del codice civile dedicate all'azione e all'eccezione di nullità. Parte della dottrina, discostandosi da quella premessa, propone soluzioni applicative di segno opposto. Al contrario, nel presente lavoro, la centralità solitamente assegnata al contratto simulato, è occupata dalla simulazione, ossia dalla fattispecie degli effetti che gli artt. 1414 e seguenti designano quali “effetti della simulazione”. Detta fattispecie è infatti quanto forma oggetto dell'attività dei soggetti del processo (l'allegazione, la prova, la cognizione e l'accertamento). La ricostruzione della disciplina processuale della simulazione muove pertanto dalla collocazione della fattispecie simulatoria entro le categorie che informano il contenuto di quella disciplina, e cioè la qualificazione della simulazione come tema di prova, come questione di merito oggetto di mera cognizione, nonché, infine, come oggetto del processo e dell'accertamento munito di autorità di cosa giudicata. La prima parte della tesi (capitoli da 1 a 4) si occupa esattamente di tale inquadramento, prendendo le mosse dalla definizione della fattispecie simulatoria e dalla discussione critica delle due opposte concezioni del fenomeno simulatorio che emergono dalla cospicua letteratura sul tema: una concezione “negativa”, che vede nella simulazione una forma qualificata di difetto della fattispecie negoziale, e una concezione “positiva”, che ravvisa la fattispecie simulatoria in un negozio distinto da quello simulato (il c.d. accordo simulatorio). Enunciate le ragioni a sostegno di quest'ultima concezione, si prende in esame la questione della struttura del contratto dissimulato e del ruolo dell'accordo simulatorio sulla formazione e l'efficacia del medesimo. L'inquadramento della simulazione nelle categorie fondamentali del processo prosegue mediante l'osservazione degli effetti giuridici che l'attività simulatoria produce riguardo ai terzi, e l'inquadramento processuale delle categorie sostanziali richiamate negli artt. 1415 e 1416 c.c. (segnatamente, l'inopponibilità). Infine, si definisce l'oggetto dell'azione di simulazione, mettendo di fronte la prevalente tesi che detto oggetto fa coincidere con il rapporto fondamentale contrattuale, e quella minoritaria che addita le azioni di simulazione e nullità quali esempi di processi di accertamento di situazioni giuridiche preliminari. Si sottopone quindi a critica la tesi del rapporto fondamentale. La seconda parte (capitoli 5 e 6) è dedicata alla discussione di profili scelti di dinamica processuale, segnatamente: l'eccezione di simulazione assoluta, e il problema della sua rilevabilità d'ufficio nei processi diretti all'esecuzione del contratto simulato, nonché in quelli che mirano, al contrario, alla dichiarazione della nullità, ovvero all'annullamento, alla rescissione o alla risoluzione dello stesso contratto; le molteplici sfaccettature che presenta la cognizione della simulazione assoluta nel corso (o a lato) dell'espropriazione forzata intrapresa contro il titolare apparente; la forma del contratto dissimulato e l'ampiezza dei poteri istruttori dei simulanti che intendano dar prova della simulazione relativa, e per suo tramite del contratto dissimulato, particolarmente nel caso in cui la simulazione relativa del prezzo venga addotta per contrastare l'azione revocatoria promossa dal curatore fallimentare contro una compravendita immobiliare “a prezzo vile”; la legittimazione ad agire nell'azione di simulazione; i limiti oggettivi del giudicato di accertamento della simulazione.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Direito apresentada à Faculdade de DireitoResumo: Para fazer face à insuficiência dos mecanismos tradicionais de apreensão na área do crime organizado e económico-financeiro, o Estado Português, através da Lei nº. 5/2002, de 11 de Janeiro, e o Estado Angolano, através da Lei nº. 15/18, de 26 de dezembro, introduziram em seus ordenamentos jurídicos o regime de "perda prorrogada de bens" que estabelece a presunção de origem criminosa de bens do agente incompatíveis com seus rendimentos lícitos, o que dispensa a exigência de efetiva demonstração de a relação entre os benefícios patrimoniais do agente e o ato criminoso para efeito de declaração do prejuízo a favor do Estado, e o ônus da prova da legalidade do ativo incongruente incumbe ao réu. Assim, com esta dissertação iremos analisar os regimes de caducidade de bens prorrogados em vigor em dois países, com o enfoque principal no regime de caducidade de bens prorrogado português, especialmente as questões relacionadas com os pressupostos, o funcionamento da presunção, o conteúdo da liquidação , bem como o alcance material da apreensão com vistas à prorrogação da perda. Iremos também abordar o problema da natureza jurídica da caducidade prolongada e demonstrar a sua compatibilidade com a Constituição portuguesa. Palavras-chave: confisco prolongado, bens incongruentes, apreensão.ouo crime organizado apresenta complexidade para uma investigação, sendo que, de acordo com as máximas da experiência, o crime de que o agente é investigado ou condenado constitui apenas uma parte que foi comprovar judicialmente uma actividade criminosa lucrativa de espectro mais alargado desenvolvido pelo mesmo. Em consequência, torna-se muito difícil ou mesmo impossível relacionar a totalidade dos proventos acumulados no decurso de uma carreira criminosa comprovada no processo de resultou a condenação do arguido, criando- se uma situação em que as fortunas continuam nas mãos dos arguidos condenados.
Abstract: To address the insufficiency of the traditional seizure mechanisms in the field of organized and economic-financial crime, the Portuguese State, through Law no. 5/2002, of January 11, and the Angolan State, through Law no. 15/18, of December 26, introduced in their legal systems the "extended asset forfeiture" regime that establishes the presumption of criminal origin of the agent's assets that are inconsistent with his/her lawful income, which waives the requirement of an effective demonstration of the relationship between the property benefits of the agent and the criminal act for the purpose of declaring the loss in favor of the State, and the burden of proof of the legality of the incongruent asset is imposed on the defendant. Thus, with this dissertation we will analyze the extended asset forfeiture regimes in force in two countries, with the main focus on the Portuguese extended asset forfeiture regime, especially the issues related to the assumptions, the operation of the presumption, the content of the liquidation, as well as the material scope of the seizure with a view to extended forfeiture. We will also address the problem of the legal nature of extended forfeiture and demonstrate its compatibility with the Portuguese Constitution. Keywords: extended forfeiture, incongruent assets, seizure.organized crime presents complexity for the investigation, and, according to the principles of experience, the crime of which the agent is investigated or convicted constitutes only the part that it was possible to judicially prove dr a profitable criminal activity of broader spectrum developed by the same. As a result, it is very difficult or even impossible to list the totality of earnings accumulated during a criminal career proven in the process that resulted in the defendant's conviction, creating a situation in which the fortunes remain in the hands of the convicted defendants.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThe doctrine of state immunity occupies a fundamental place in international law. The application of the doctrine, largely left to the national laws of states, is not consistent. One particular area of inconsistency is the treatment of the plea of state immunity from execution of arbitral awards resulting from investor-state disputes. The issue of state immunity from execution has come to the fore in light of a number of recent attempts by award-creditors to attach their awards against the assets of a foreign state located in jurisdictions considered to be “pro-enforcement”, such as France and Belgium. This chapter considers the plea of state immunity and the execution of investment arbitration awards from the perspective of the forum state. In particular, it addresses the introduction of procedural and substantive amendments to French and Belgian laws on state immunity following these attempts by award-creditors to seize foreign state assets located in their respective jurisdictions. The chapter posits a way forward for investors seeking to navigate the landscape governing state immunity from execution.

AbstractBackground and purpose: Brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are uncommon vascular lesions with the risk of hemorrhage, epileptic seizures, neurological deficits, and headache. Comparing the risks of the natural history and that of preventive treatment, a recent study has found observation more beneficial than treatment for unruptured AVMs. This study, however, did not consider the long-term impact of carrying a brain AVM on everyday activities. In this study we analyzed the Quality Of Life (QOL) of patients with untreated AVMs, a measure increasingly used in clinical trials to asses this kind of impact.Methods: We enrolled 36 patients with unruptured, untreated brain AVM from our hospital database and measured their QOL retrospectively using the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire. As a control group we used the results of the Research Report, a nationwide study based on the quality of life of 5534 healthy Hungarians in 2002. Due to the low number of cases, statistical analysis could not be made.Results: Headache proved to be the most common AVM-related sign in our cohort (40%, n = 17), with a female predominance; neurological deficit was detected in 33% (n = 14), while epileptic seizures occurred in 26% (n = 11), more commonly affecting male subjects. Anxiety and discomfort seemed to be the most prevalent influencing factors on QOL, especially in the youngest age group (18–34 years). Female subjects showed a greater dependence than men in all age groups, though males had a more significant impairment in their usual activities. Older patients were affected more significantly in their self-care and usual activities compared with the younger population.Conclusions: Untreated AVMs have a significant negative impact on patients carrying unruptured brain AVMs, as proved by QOL assessment. Beside neurological deficits, this impact should also be considered in the therapeutic decision.

The aim of this work is to analyse the problematic aspects of seizure of criminal assets. The paper examines 30 decisions of investigating judges to seize property and higher court decisions, as well as claims and other decisions related to seizure. The article mainly analyses the application of legal norms and general legal principles, as well as the inconsistency of certain legal norms with the constitution (Satversme). The most significant problems are the following: (1) the court does not assess the evidence on the merits; (2) there is no right to request the revocation of the asset seizure in court; (3) the time limits for asset seizure are disproportionately long; (4) the presumption of criminal origin is not restricted in practice to criminals or related parties; (5) suspicious activity is the only evidence of criminal origin. The problems manifest themselves as a violation of fundamental rights, including the right to a fair trial, equality before the law and the right to property.

Epilepsy is a brain ailment identified by unpredictable interruptions of normal brain activity. Around 1% of mankind experience epileptic seizures. Around 10% of the United States population experiences at least a single seizure in their life. Epilepsy is distinguished by the tendency of the brain to generate unexpected bursts of unusual electrical activity that disrupts the normal functioning of the brain. As seizures usually occur rarely and are unforeseeable, seizure recognition systems are recommended for seizure detection during long-term electroencephalography (EEG). In this chapter, ANN models, namely, BPA, RNN, CL, PNN, and LVQ, have been implemented. A prominent dataset was employed to assess the proposed method. The proposed method is capable of achieving an accuracy of 97.5%; the high accuracy obtained has confirmed the great success of the method.

In this chapter the majority of such long-term EEG signal processing techniques and methods, used in the seizure detection domain, are presented. Emphasis is particularly given on providing a complete overview of the wide variety of methodologies from the last few years, which were evaluated using two well-known public EEG databases consisting of long-term scalp and intracranial EEG recordings.

Since the introduction of the offense of bribery of foreign public officials under French law in 2000, France has made undeniable progress in combating corruption. Numerous reforms have then been adopted (expansion of the scope of criminal prosecution, facilitation of the seizure and confiscation of assets in criminal matters, increasing of possible penalties, creation of the National Financial Prosecutor, . . .). French law criminalizes active and passive bribery, private and public bribery, domestic and foreign/international bribery as well as influence peddling. Nevertheless, the OECD was particularly critical of France over the last years. The French legislature recently took such criticism into account and strove to make further progress in preventing, detecting, and punishing corruption in order to reach the highest international standards. Law No. 2016-1691, known as “Sapin II law,” recently enhanced the French anti-bribery system by introducing a new duty for certain companies and their executives to prevent bribery and influence peddling by implementing a compliance program to prevent and detect such offenses. Sapin II law therefore testifies to France’s determination to effectively fight corruption.

Full textAbstract:
Medically refractory epilepsy is defined as the persistence of seizures after appropriate treatment with 2 different medications. A thorough understanding of the clinical history and semiology of seizures is important when considering surgical treatment options, as multifocal epilepsy may not be amenable to resective surgery. Anatomic, functional, and metabolic imaging sequences may assist in identifying a seizure focus, and EEG will provide a functional localization. The surgeon must make a careful and informed decision about the maximal amount of lesion that may be resected without incurring neurologic deficits. Specific postoperative management should be dictated by the natural history of the noted pathology.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Recognizing and documenting epileptic seizures in everyday life is fundamentally important for the precise therapy of those affected. However, studies on seizure diaries have shown that up to 45% of seizures that can be recorded via EEG are not documented by the diarists (Hoppe et al., 2007). To address this gap, the MOND project (Mobile Smart Neurosensing System for the Detection and Documentation of Epileptic Seizures in Daily Life) is working on a wearable neurosensor system. As part of this project, an app that is connected to the sensor is being developed to assist users with epilepsy management. Objective: This research aims at developing and evaluating a digital epilepsy diary that simultaneously shows the data collected via the sensor system and can be used as a tool simplifying the physician-patient-communication. The main objective pursued in this paper is to describe the user centered design process with focus on long-term usage support. Therefore, we address the following questions: How can seizure documentation be supported by the app design? Do an avatar concept and dialogue-based interaction promote long-term usage? Methods: We follow a user-centered design approach. The work is based on an app developed in the previous EPItect project (Houta et al., 2020), which was already evaluated in its basic functions but not so much regarding usability issues. User perspectives were included iteratively throughout the whole process: At the beginning, a heuristic evaluation was carried out to identify which features need to be revised. For considering the integration of the app into everyday life of patients, storytelling was used to describe the care process. Added to the requirements already known from the Epitect project, these findings culminate in a developed design for the MOND-App including an avatar-based prototype. User feedback was conducted before, during and after the design process through user workshops and semistructured interviews with a small sample (four patients). Results: The results of the evaluation phase show acceptance of the avatar concept, in particular with dialogue-like interaction being seen as superior to long texts. At the same time, there was skepticism about whether an avatar can really lead to increased motivation in the long term. The collected user feedback also shows which concerns arise regarding data protection and could thus prevent use, the areas in which certain input methods (such as lists) are particularly desirable, and the areas of the app that require increased customizability. These latter areas primarily concern the nomenclature of symptoms and seizure types, which is often created independently by patients. Conclusions: The results of the interviews show a high willingness to use the app, as important functionalities supplemented by suitable input formats and dialogue-like interaction were positively evaluated. At the same time, customizability – mainly in the naming and description of symptoms and seizure types outside clinical classifications – is an important aspect in the development of an app for epilepsy management. The long-term impact and use of such an app need to be assessed in follow-up studies after full development. Hoppe, C., Poepel, A., & Elger, C. E. (2007).

Full textAbstract:
Refractory epilepsy is a condition characterized by epileptic seizure occurrence which cannot be controlled with antiepileptic drugs. This condition is associated with an excessive neuronal discharge produced by a group of neurons in a certain epileptogenic zone. Focal Cortical Dysplasia (FCD), usually found in these zones, was detected as one of the main causes of refractory epilepsy. In these cases, surgical intervention is necessary to minimize or eliminate the seizure occurrences. However, surgical treatment is only indicated in cases where there is complete certainty of the FCD. In order to assist neurosurgeons to detect precisely these regions, this paper aims to develop a classification method to detect FCD on MRI based on morphological and textural features from a voxel-level perspective. Multiple classifiers were tested throughout the extracted features, the best results achieved an accuracy of 91.76% using a Deep Neural Network classifier and 96.15% with J48 Decision Tree. The set of evaluating metrics showed that the results are promising.

Full textAbstract:
In the railroad industry, monitoring the condition of key components such as bearings and wheels is vital to ensure the safe transport of goods and commodities. Bearing seizures are amongst the most dangerous types of failures experienced by trains because they occur unexpectedly and may lead to costly derailments. Current bearing health monitoring techniques include tracking the temperature and acoustic emissions given by the bearings. Although temperature histories of railroad tapered roller bearings are readily available, the literature does not provide information relating the temperature profiles to the severity of the bearing defect. The study presented here investigates the correlation between temperature profiles and bearing defect severity measured by the size of spalls present on bearing outer (cup) and inner (cone) rings. The temperature data used for this study was acquired from defective and healthy bearings that were run at various operating load and speed conditions. The data presented here provides the railroad industry with a greater understanding of the thermal behavior of defective bearings, which can be used to assess the future needs of bearing condition monitoring systems.

Abstract Head stiction problems have driven the search for new actuator bearing greases. It is well known in the industry that heads gradually accumulate e organic products which lead to stiction seizures after the heads have landed on the disks. Actuator pivot bearings were lubricated by the test greases. Three grease types were tested: 1) mineral oil with a polyurea thickener, 2) polyolester oil with a polyurea thickener, and 3) perfluorinated polyether oil with a polytetrafluorethelyne thickener. Airborne particle count tests were performed on five files each to assess the grease effect on disk drive contamination levels. Particle counts for sizes 0.2, 0.5 and 1.0 micron were taken from accessing files. Differences in the generation rate of aerosolized grease were measured when the files were new and also after having been exercised 10, 20 and 60 million seeks. Cascade impaction of disk drive’s air stream was analyzed by time of flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy to confirm that the aerosol particles captured were from the grease. Files built with the perfluorinated polyether oil based grease had the lowest particle count. Files built with bearings lubricated by the mineral oil based grease had a moderate particle count. Files containing the polyol ester oil based grease had the highest particle count.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Characterized as a seizure crisis, the transient occurrence of signs and/or symptoms resulting from brain electrical impulses, in an unorganized, excessive and repeated manner. It’s the responsibility of the health team, including nursing, to provide information to the population about the disease. Objective: Identify, through scientific articles, nursing care for patients diagnosed with epilepsy. Design and setting: Bibliographic and descriptive research on nursing care for patients diagnosed with epilepsy, a search for scientific articles was carried out in Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences and Nursing Database, which are part of the Virtual Health Library Methods: Articles available, online, in Portuguese, Spanish and English, published from January 2008 to December 2018. Results: Five articles were analyzed, which identified the nursing care provided to patients diagnosed with epilepsy. The articles were categorized as: “training of nurses on epilepsy care” in four articles that describe the development and implantation of a plan to take care of epilepsy by nurses, the care for patients with specialist nurse in epilepsy and training of nurses to be specialist nurses; and “education and training of parents of children diagnosed with epilepsy” in an article that describes a tool development by nurses to help parents and family to take care of a child with epilepsy. Conclusions: The nurse with the health team is very important in the participation of explanatory processes of individual and family adaptation, as they can identify the limitations that must be worked on and they assist in the development of solutions.

Introduction: While reaching ever new heights mankind met an altitude illness. A critical stage of altitude sickness, manifesting by loss of consciousness, convulsions, apnea and subsequent death, develops at above 7 km altitudes. Pilots, alpinists and extreme sportsmen are the main risk group. Acute oxygen starvation of body while significant hypobaric hypoxia is the main mechanism of altitude illness. It is proposed to reduce the level of metabolism (artificial hypobiosis) to prevent the negative impact of acute hypobaric hypoxia. The study goal to assess the efficiency of organism negative impact prevention with metabolic rate reduction while acute hypobaric hypoxia. Materials and methods: Syrian hamsters, 90–110 g weight were used in the study. 2 groups, 8 animals in each. Experimental group of animals had intramuscular injections of 1 ml 0.9% NaCl containing 1 g/kg Methyldop (CAS Number 555-30-6) in 0.3 ml/kg dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) suspension. Control group of animals had 1 ml 0.9% NaCl containing 0.3 ml/kg DMSO. 3 hours later animals had been placed in hypobaric chamber. 20 kPa under pressure was created, speed – 1.25 kPa/s. Continuous chamber air flow was made to avoid CO2 accumulation. Continuous visual observation carried out. Consciousness, posture maintenance time, convulsive seizures, agonal breathing, and apnea were registered. Results: Control group: since start of exposure the average animal posture maintenance time was 3 s (standard error (SE) – 4 s). First convulsion time – 20 s (SE – 8 s), second convulsion – 56 s (SE – 14 s), agonal breath type start (6 animals) – 52 s (SE – 20 s), apnea – 1 min 54 s (SE – 1 min 8 s). It was consciousness absence in all animal. Experimental group: none of registered parameters were observed. All animals had consciousness, actively restored their position, while chamber was tilted. The exposure lasted for 20 minutes. Conclusions: Metabolic rate reduction has high efficiency for organism negative impact prevention while acute hypobaric hypoxia.

Full textAbstract:
Review question / Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of different neuromodulation applied to the refractory epilepsy and provide a better choice for clinical practice. Condition being studied: Epilepsy is a frequent neurologic illness defined by bursts of hypersynchronized neural network activity that afflict about 1% of the global population. Unfortunately, roughly 30% of people with drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) continue to experience seizures despite three anti-seizure drugs. In most cases, resective surgery, as the first-line treatment for DRE, is considered a curative therapy for achieving long-term seizure-free status, but about half of patients are not candidates for surgery due to a variety of factors such as multiple/diffuse/widespread seizure foci, epileptic foci arising from eloquent, primary generalized epilepsy, or patients unwilling to undergo surgery. Neuromodulation, albeit palliative, is an important alternative treatment for these individuals to prevent or decrease ictal episodes, which can affect the nervous system in a variety of ways.

Full textAbstract:
Countering financing of terrorism (CFT) has been a core component of counter terrorism strategies since the 9/11 attacks on the US in 2001. Key CFT measures are criminalisation of terrorism financing; sanctions and assets freezing/seizure; and use of financial intelligence. CFT assessments focus on implementation of these measures, rather than on impact in terms of preventing terrorist activity. This rapid review therefore looks at the effectiveness of different CFT measures. It draws on a mixture of academic and grey literature, including policy papers and reports from agencies involved in CFT implementation. While there is available literature on terrorism financing (how groups raise funds), and on the various approaches to CFT as well as implementation assessment, the review found very little on the impact of CFT in preventing terrorism. Reflecting this, it was also difficult to identify specific examples of CFT impact and effectiveness. The limited literature on the latter suggests that, while CFT measures can hamper terrorists/terrorist groups, they cannot stop them entirely. Despite this, CFT remains a useful tool for governments in the fight against terrorism/their efforts to counter terrorism. However, the current CFT model needs to be reformed to address significant changes in both the terrorist threat and terrorism financing environment.

Full textAbstract:
Review question / Objective: This study is to assess the efficacy and safety of ketamine in treating refractory and super-refractory status epilepticus in pediatric and adult populations. Rationale: Refractory status epilepticus (RSE) is either generalized or complex partial status epilepticus (SE) that fails to respond to first and second-line therapies. Super refractory status epilepticus (SRSE) is SE that remains unresponsive despite 24 hours of therapy with general anesthesia [1, 2]. Both RSE and SRSE pose significant challenges for the managing intensivist. There exists a race against time for control of epileptic activity in the RSE/SRSE patient to preserve cortical function and reduce morbidity/mortality. However, despite the best intentions, and not uncommonly, standard frontline antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) fail to control or reduce seizure activity once seizures approach the 30-minute mark. The following review provides an analysis of ketamine in treating RSE/SRSE, focusing on the potential target population, dosing, concerns, and the role of early administration.
