This article deals with issues related to the out-of-court settlement agreement as well as other selected legal structures that perform similar functions on a basis on Swiss civil law. The deliberations begin with a comparison of the court settlement with out-of-court settlement, and then the detailed legal regulations applicable to the out-of-court settlement are presented, as well as the legal nature of this settlement. An analysis is made of when such an agreement could be concluded, what constitutes to its essence, and it is considered which of the applicable legel provisions could apply directly to it, and which would be applicable only respectively and how it would be done. It also has been shown how such a settlement can be concluded and what form the Swiss law requires for it. Next, controversies related to whether the agreement has a novel effect are discussed, as well as the issue of its impact on the period of time limitation of claims. The final part of the text compares the features of out-of-court settlements with other institutions a little bit similar to it, such as debt admission, debt relief, service fulfillment receipt, general admission of liability, modification of the initial contract, or arbitration or mediation agreement.

Article discusses procedure regulated in the Act of 20 January 2011 on the financial liability of public officials for gross violation of the law. It was noteworthy because is has been formed as a very specific legal structure. This is, among other reasons, because despite the fact that within its framework typically substantive issues are set – i.e. the existence of conditions for financial liability (and in the case of recognition of their existence – this proceedings will result in a civil lawsuit), this procedure is conducted by the public prosecutor and the threat of criminal sanction ensure that the application for its conduct will be submitted. Moreover, the aforementioned Act does not provide detailed regulations regarding the mode of conducting this procedure, what leads to numerous practical problems. Because of the above it was justified to address this issue and make the subject of detailed discussion the problematic key issues emerging on this background, including issue of how to initiate such proceedure and evaluation of entrusting the task of conducting it to the prosecutor. There have been also analyzed specific issues related to the course of this procedure and the issue of the admissibility of an independent claim against a public official by the responsible entity.

Artykuł ukazuje istotny aspekt cywilnoprawnej instytucji przedawnienia roszczeń dotyczący tego, czy i jeśli tak, to w jaki sposób upływ terminu przedawnienia dochodzonego przed sądem roszczenia jest brany przez ten sąd pod uwagę, przy czym problematyka ta została ujęta w taki sposób, by ukazać zależność pomiędzy motywacją, jaką kieruje się ustawodawca – względami polityki społecznej a dokonanym przez niego wyborem metody uwzględniania upływu terminu przedawnienia. Rozważania rozpoczynają się od zakreślenia obszaru poruszanej tematyki, po czym następuje pokazanie prezentowanych w literaturze prawniczej argumentów mających przemawiać na rzecz każdego z dwóch konkurencyjnych sposobów uwzględniania upływu terminu przedawnienia, to jest z urzędu lub na zarzut tego, przeciwko komu roszczenie przysługuje. Czynione jest to przy wykazaniu powiązań pomiędzy poglądami w tym zakresie a przychylaniem się do koncepcji socjalistycznych albo liberalnych. Na tym tle pokazane zostały przemiany rozwiązań w omawianym zakresie związane z niepożądanymi zjawiskami społecznymi, jakie pojawiły się w praktyce stosowania elektronicznego postępowania egzekucyjnego przewidzianego polskim kodeksem postępowania cywilnego, a także pokazana została konstrukcja silnie motywowana względami społecznymi (przedstawionymi w tekście) wprowadzona ustawą z 13 kwietnia 2018 r. nowelizującą kodeks cywilny, przynosząca istotne przeobrażenia w kwestii sposobu uwzględniania upływu terminu przedawnienia roszczeń, skutkująca powstaniem swoistego dualizmu w tym zakresie w polskim prawie cywilnym. Pokazano przy tym między innymi elastyczność wprowadzonej regulacji (np. zastrzeżenie jako zasady uwzględniania przez sąd z urzędu przedawnienia roszczenia dochodzonego od konsumenta, ale z zastrzeżeniem możliwości odstępstw od tego), a także skonfrontowano założenia wskazane w uzasadnieniu tej ostatniej powołanej ustawy z możliwością ich osiągnięcia dzięki kształtowi wprowadzonych nią przepisów.

The article presents an important aspect of the civil law limitation period of claims, namely whether – and if so, how – the expiration of the limitation period for a claim brought before a court is taken into consideration by the court. This issue is presented in such a way as to show the relationship between the motivation which the legislator is guided by – social policy considerations – and its choice of the method of taking into account the expiration of the limitation period. The reflections start with a presentation of the subject matter, followed by an indication of the arguments presented in legal literature in support of each of the two competing ways of taking into account the expiration of the limitation period, that is, ex officio or only when the person against whom the claim is due raises an objection. This is done while demonstrating the connections between views in this area and the acceptance of socialist or liberal concepts. Against this background, there are shown changes in solutions in the discussed area related to unwanted social phenomena that appeared in the practice of the use of electronic enforcement procedure provided for by the Polish Code of Civil Procedure. The author also describes the construction, which is strongly motivated by social considerations (presented in the text), introduced by the Act of 13 April 2018 amending the Civil Code, which brings significant changes in the manner of taking into account the expiration of the period of limitation of claims, with the resulting particular dualism in this area of Polish civil law. Among other things, the text discusses the flexibility of the introduced regulation (e.g. stipulating as a rule for the court to take into account the expiration of limitation of claim claimed from the consumers, but with a possibility of departing from the rule). Furthermore, the assumptions indicated in the justification for the aforementioned Act are confronted with the possibility of achieving the desired state thanks to the wording of the provisions introduced by said Act.
