The author presents trends in modern legal discussion on prescription. He suggests that the trends are defined by three basic issues. The first question is on relevance of prescription in the 21st century. The second issue concerns the future of the legal institution and the scope of its application in the new reality, i.e. determined by technological changes. The third makes us discuss whether we deal with a single legal construct or with many institutions covered for historical reasons by the same name. The article discusses the judgment of the European Court of Human Rights in case JA Pye (Oxford) Ltd v. The United Kingdom, opin- ions of lawyers in common law countries, specialists in continental law, mixed jurisdiction, and legal systems of Asian states. The author suggests significant importance of technological changes, including technologies based on blockchain and the Internet of Things. He discusses in detail the shape of legal regulations regarding prescription in Louisiana (USA) and the province of Quebec (Canada). Finally, he refers to the Roman legal tradition as the best tertium comparationis for discussions on prescription in any major legal orders of the world.

The subject of considerations taken in this paper is the issue of criminalization of abortion in roman law. For centuries, abortion - although occasionally criticized by pagan writers - was not considered a crime by the Romans. Situation changed in the third century, when Spetymius Severus and Karakalla issued a rescript, according to which a divorced woman committing an abortion without the consent of her ex-husband should be condemned to exile. A separate sanction implemented on the basis of lex Cornelia de sicariis et veneficis was prescribed for perpetrators who gave specifics causing abortion to a woman. The purpose of the article is to try to establish the relationship between these crimes by identifying their names.
PL
Przedmiotem rozważań podjętych w artykule jest zagadnienie penalizacji aborcji w prawie rzymskim. Przez stulecia aborcja – jakkolwiek okolicznościowo poddawana krytyce ze strony pogańskich pisarzy – nie była uznawana przez Rzymian za przestępstwo. Zmieniło się to dopiero w III wieku, kiedy to Spetymiusz Sewer i Karakalla wydali reskrypt, zgodnie z którym rozwiedziona kobieta dopuszczająca się aborcji bez zgody swego byłego męża winna być skazana na wygnanie. Odrębnej sankcji realizowanej na podstawie lex Cornelia de sicariis et veneficis podlegały osoby, które podawały kobiecie środki aborcyjne. Celem artykułu jest próba ustalenia relacji między tymi przestępstwami poprzez identyfikację ich znamion.

The proclamation of rights without contextual means to ensure. is not an effective source of justice and leads to a justice crisis. A new ‘model’ must be proposed , which sees the Roman law and process as a source of innovative suggestions and ideas that apply to the present. In particular, it is important to emphasize the ‘Treaties’ as threatening to man and the environment. The Roman law indicates the way to prevent the underlying economic and financial reign of the few.
PL
La proclamazione di diritti senza contestuale strumenti che ne assicurino l’effettività è fonte di crisi de diritto e della Giustizia. Occorre proporre un nuovo ‘modello’, per il quale il diritto ed il processo romano appaiono fonte di suggestioni e di spunti innovativi applicabili anche all’oggi. In particolare è inammissibile l’enfatizzazione dei ‘Trattati’ sino al punto di minacciare l’uomo e l’ambiente. Il diritto romano indica la via per impedire l’assoggettamento agli interessi economico- finanziari di pochi.

The aim of this paper is to present the development of the legal concept of good faith in European legal tradition by means of claim in case of building on someone else’s land – art. 231 § 1 of Polish Civil Code. This claim pretends to be an exception to the superficies solo cedit – rule, offering some possibility to avoid its strict results. The paper takes particularly Polish and Austrian regulations into consideration. The author describes the history of meaning of good faith from roman law until today. He indicates the Germanic origins of the claim from art. 231 § 1 and the influences of Austrian Civil Code (ABGB) § 418. The paper contains a review of statements of doctrine and Polish Supreme Court in 20th century. The described example is also a model of application of historic-comparative method in legal sciences.

The purpose of this article is to show the nature and legal requirements of the will for the benefit of churches or pious works. The conclusion reached in these considerations is that post-classical roman law, although it did not recognize the legal personality of the Catholic Church, guaranteed the particular ecclesial communities and pious works run by the Church wide access to material goods, by way of testamentary universal succession, as well as testamentary succession under particular title. This was made possible through the recognition of ecclesial communities and charities as legal entities having testamenti factio passiva by Roman law. Wills benefiting churches or pious works necessitated, for their validity, abiding by all of the formal requirements for making a declaration of intent, in particular the presence of seven witnesses, regardless of whether the declaration was oral or written. As such, wills benefitting churches or pious works were not considered under Roman law to be privileged in form. It was Pope Alexander III who first challenged the requirement of the presence of seven witnesses. Since then, canon law treated wills for the benefit of churches or pious works as a privileged kind of will, whose validity required the presence of only two witnesses. Thus, this type of will was an institution present in both legal orders, but only received its privileged nature in medieval canon law.

The subject of the considerations in presented paper is the concept of ius gentium in two selected fragments of St. Thomas Aquinas: S.Th. I-II, q. 95, a. 4 and S.Th. II-II, q. 57, a. 3. The introduction to their detailed analysis is the discussion of three issues necessary for the correct interpretation of Aquinas’ argu-ments, i.e. the concept of ius gentium in the first book of the Justinian Digest, the definition of ius gentium in the Etymologies of St. Isidore of Seville and an explanation of the relationship between the concepts of ius and lex in the Summa Theologica. The conducted research allows to conclude that the Angelic Doctor uses the concept of ius gentium in a twofold sense. The first of them is of a juridical nature and can be equated with the understanding of this term on the basis of the sources of Roman law. Ius gentium is therefore a set of legal norms common to all peoples, which enable, first of all, mutual economic turnover, although to some extent also apply to the external activity of the state. The second meaning of the term ius gentium, although also to some extent inspired by the sources of Roman law, has a broader character and a deeper philosophical foundation. On the basis of the treaty on justice, ius gentium constitutes the social order of functioning of all people based on natural reason (naturalis ratio).

Wpływ prawa świeckiego na powstanie prawa patronatu

EN
According to the institution of ius patronatus, catholic founders of churches and chapels gained patron enjoyed privileges and duties. A better understanding of patronus can be obtained by reference to the roman law, is which this term means somebody had regained his slave's freedom. Further meaning of this word patronus is defender (advocate). The article shows the impact of civil law on the establishment of patronage's right. This institution originates from church law in this field of its regulation but also has very close connection with civil law. Patronage is formed as a result of a “competition’s process” of private ownership right of churches' founders with ecclesiastical law. There is indicated a special nature of patronage as an exceptional institution which should not just be identified with ecclesiastical law. Church law has not separated definitely the right in property and personal law. The Author tends to lean towards the view that patronage has a “mixed” nature of ecclesiastical and secular. As a consequence patronage's right is formed by these two legal systems.

The Act of 15th December 2016 on the General Counsel to the Republic of Poland (Journal of Laws of 2016, item. 2261) has established the new institution in the place of the current General Counsel of the State Treasury. This Act also expanded significantly the scope of competence of this new office also on the administrative and criminal matters, in which there is the interest of the State Treasury. Such a wide legal representation of the rights and interests of the State Treasury is a fairly rare option, at least in Europe. This is a reference to the arrangements being in force during the Second Polish Republic of the twentieth century. These changes are forcing to assess current solutions related to the legal representation of the State Treasury in relation to the solutions found in other European countries. In addition to the legal and comparative approach to the problem, the study will also include a reference to the solutions found in ancient Rome, where the first of this kind office, which was advocatus fisci, was established. The legal and historical research will allow to keep the distance to the current solutions. Thanks to this, it will be possible to identify the optimum model of the State Treasury legal representation.

Ustawą z dnia 15 grudnia 2016 o Prokuratorii Generalnej Rzeczpospolitej Polskiej (Dz.U z 2016 poz. 2261) powołano do życia nową instytucję w miejsce dotychczasowej Prokuratorii Generalnej Skarbu Państwa. Tą ustawą poszerzono również w sposób znaczący zakres kompetencji tej nowej instytucji również na sprawy administracyjne i karne, w których występuje interes Skarbu Państwa. Tak szeroka reprezentacja praw i interesów Skarbu Państwa jest dość rzadko spotykanym rozwiązaniem przynajmniej w Europie. Jest to nawiązanie do rozwiązań obowiązujących w okresie II Rzeczpospolitej Polskiej XX wieku. Te zmiany zmuszają do pewnej oceny obecnych rozwiązań związanych z zastępstwem procesowym Skarbu Państwa w odniesieniu do rozwiązań występujących w innych krajach europejskich. Oprócz prawno-porównawczego podejścia do problemu, w pracy znajdzie się również odniesienie do rozwiązań występujących w antycznym Rzymie, gdzie powołano do życia pierwszy tego rodzaju urząd jakim był advocatus fisci. Badania prawno-historyczne pozwolą na zdystansowanie się od obecnych rozwiązań. Dzięki temu można będzie wskazać na optymalny model zastępstwa procesowego Skarbu Państwa.
