Sale of Goods Contracts in Saudi Arabia: Accession to the CISG, The Civil Transactions Act and conflict rules This paper examines the implications of Saudi Arabia’s accession to the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) in August 2023. Saudi Arabia joined only Parts I and II, postponing a decision on Part III pending further analysis of its compatibility with Sharia law. Two months earlier, Saudi Arabia enacted the Civil Transactions Act (CTA), its first civil law codification, largely replacing Sharia in contractual and non-contractual obligations. However, the CTA lacks conflict rules, leaving Saudi Arabia without legislation on conflict-of-law rules for sale contracts. This paper explores Saudi Arabia’s options for joining Part III of the CISG, the possibility of choosing foreign law or the entire CISG before Saudi courts or in arbitration, and compares the CISG with the CTA. It assesses the legal and practical challenges of harmonizing Saudi Arabia’s new legal framework with international sales law.

The Road Ahead: Challenges to the Effective Enforcement of the EU Representative Actions Directive The rise of digital technology has driven progress but also enabled large scale national and cross-border consumer law infringements. Unlawful digital practices threaten the internal market and the EU's goal of high consumer protection. Directive (EU) 2020/1828 on representative actions aims to enhance enforcement by balancing access to justice and litigation abuse. Its key contribution is to ensure that consumers can seek injunctions and redress in all Member States. However, while a step forward, the Directive does not fully resolve issues of standing and funding, which hinder access to justice and effective enforcement. Addressing these challenges depends on the creativity and flexibility of national legislators, lawyers, and courts to make representative actions more practical and effective. This article examines the impact of the Directive and argues that additional efforts are crucial to overcome its limitations and ensure meaningful consumer protection across the EU.

Civil Liability of Principal for the Acts of Agent – A Comparison Between France and Mauritius Mauritian civil law is strongly influenced by French civil law, for historical reasons. Civil liability, tort and contractual law, is regulated in an almost same manner in the two countries. However, as French civil law is only a persuasive authority in Mauritius, the position of the French Court of Cassation is not always followed by the Mauritian Supreme Court. Moreover, even when the legal solutions in the two countries are the same, differences can exist between the contractual and tort liabilities of principals for the acts of their agents. This paper aims at critically analyzing the similarities and differences in the tort and contractual liabilities of principals for the acts of their agents in France and Mauritius.

Data Retention and Criminal Procedure in Serbia The use of information technology enables state authorities to prosecute perpetrators and process personal data on an unprecedented scale and in an unimaginable way, in the course of taking measures and actions to prevent, detect and investigate criminal acts. One of the disputed processing is the nonselective mass monitoring of electronic communications in the form of retention of communication data, which, given the technological development and social importance of electronic communications, can on occasion reveal more about an individual than the content of the communication itself. This form of data processing represents interference with guaranteed human rights and freedoms, and need to be legally regulated in order to prevent their violation. The authors analyze the legal framework for retention of communication data and access to retained data for the purposes of criminal proceedings in Serbia, especially in light of the relevant practices of the CJEU and ECtHR.

Forming the Assembly as a Legislative Body in Ancient Greece In every democratic society, the role of the assembly is of utmost importance, as it is a political body whose main task is to represent the will of the people. While societies and states have evolved over the centuries and became more complex, both ancient and modern democracies have faced similar issues, the most important one being the creation of efficient democratic mechanisms that will truly allow the voice of the people to be heard and enacted. In this paper, the authors will focus on the evolution of the assembly in ancient Greece, in an attempt to draw conclusions that would also benefit the modern world.

Church Theft in Medieval Serbian Law Since ancient times, theft of sacred objects has been recognized as a qualified form of theft, as a typical property crime, but also as an act of sacrilege. In medieval Serbian law, the canonical and secular regulations are found in the two typikons and the Zakonopravilo (Nomocanon) of Saint Sava, as well as in the later compilations of Rhomaian (Byzantine) law of the Serbian redaction during the reign of emperor Dušan – Matthew Blastares’ (Abbreviated) Syntagma and the so-called Law of Emperor Justinian. Between these two great waves of reception of Rhomaian law, King Milutin’s Banjska and Gračanica charters summarily regulate church theft. The aim of this paper is to conceptually separate the church theft from other crimes against church property and to gain a better understanding of church theft in medieval Serbian law through analysis of the available sources.

NAČELO KONTRADIKTORNOSTI U POSTUPKU PRED USTAVNIM SUDOM: KOMENTAR PRESUDE EVROPSKOG SUDA ZA LJUDSKA PRAVA Nakon konstituisanja Ustavnog suda u skladu sa Ustavom iz 2006. go dine, strankama u različitim postupcima stavljeno je na raspolaganje još jedno pravno sredstvo za preispitivanje sudskih odluka. Ustavni sud je povodom izjavljenih ustavnih žalbi počeo da poništava sudske odluke, nalazeći da su tim odlukama povređeni ili uskraćeni ljudsko ili manjinsko pravo i sloboda zajemčena Ustavom. To je izazivalo nezadovoljstvo sudova, naročito Vrhovnog (kasacionog) suda. Izmenama Ustava iz 2022. godine izričito je predviđeno da sudsku odluku može preispitivati ne samo nadležni sud u zakonom propisanom postupku nego i Ustavni sud u postupku po ustavnoj žalbi. Krajem 2024. godi ne Evropski sud za ljudska prava doneo je presudu protiv Srbije kojom je, zbog nedostavljanja ustavne žalbe licu u čiju korist je doneta pobijana sudska odluka, utvrdio povredu prava na pravično suđenje u po stupku pred Ustavnim sudom. Predmet ovog rada je analiza te presude i njen mogući uticaj na postupanje Ustavnog suda.
