Selon l’avocat général Wathelet, les dispositions de la directive sur les réfugiés permettant à un État membre de refuser ou de révoquer le statut de réfugié sont compatibles avec le droit de l'UE

借金問題は、一般にみられる法律問題の中でも、特に多い存在といえるでしょう。借金と聞くと抵抗の感じられる方法に感じられるかもしれませんが、近年はキャッシングやカードローンと名前を変え、身近で手軽なサービスとして展開されています。それだけに、安易に利用し過ぎて身を滅ぼしてしまうような人が少なくないのです。

また、スマートフォンが普及したこともそうした一因になっているかもしれません。スマートフォンの割賦払いを延滞してしまうと、信用情報がマイナス評価されていまい、ブラック登録される可能性が出てきます。そうなると、気付かないうちに融資の受けられない状態となってしまいます。ブラック登録されており、なおかつどうしてもお金が必要となると、闇金に行き着いてしまう可能性も出てくるでしょう。事実、債務整理を扱う法律事務所では、闇金相談も少なくないようです。

こうした理由から、借金問題に対応する法律事務所は広く増えてきています。法的なサポートのもと債務整理をおこなえば、こうした負担も軽減できるかもしれません。軽減どころか、お金が返ってくるケースも存在するようです。借金に悩んだら、まずは法律のプロフェッショナルである法律事務所に相談してみてはいかがでしょう。

L’article 1er in fine du protocole n° 7 sur les privilèges et immunités de l’Union européenne doit être interprété en ce sens que l’autorisation préalable de la Cour de justice de l’Union européenne n’est pas nécessaire lorsqu’un tiers engage une procédure de saisie-arrêt d’une créance auprès d’un organisme relevant d’un État membre et ayant une dette correspondante envers le débiteur du tiers, bénéficiaire de fonds octroyés aux fins de l’exécution de projets cofinancés par le Fonds social européen.

Professor Ronald Brand has recently posted a paper titled “Recognition of Foreign Judgments in China: The Liu Case and the ‘Belt and Road’ Initiative.” The posting includes an English translation of the first Chinese case to recognize and enforce a U.S. judgment, prepared by Yuting Xu. The combined paper and case translation are available here.

By way of a brief summary, in June, 2017, the Wuhan Intermediate People’s Court became the first Chinese court to recognize a U.S. judgment in the case of Liu Li v. Tao Li & Tong Wu. The Liu case is a significant development in Chinese private international law, but represents more than a single decision in a single case. It is one piece of a developing puzzle in which the law on the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments in China is a part of a larger set of developments. These developments are inextricably tied to the “One Belt and One Road,” or “Belt and Road” Initiative first announced by Chinese President Xi Jinping on a visit to Kazakhstan in 2013. This article traces the development of the Liu case, from the first judgment in California to the decision to recognize and enforce that judgment in Wuhan, China. It then provides the context within which the decision on recognition and enforcement was made, and the way the decision fits within President Xi’s “Belt and Road” Initiative and the pronouncements of the Chinese People’s Supreme Court which have encouraged the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments as part of that Initiative.

Entreprise en difficulté (Loi du 26 juillet 2005)

In [2018] EWHC 1343 (Comm) Nori Holdings v Otkritie  Males J follows exactly the same line as mine in commenting on West Tankers – specifically the bodged attempt in Brussels I Recast to accommodate the concerns over West Tankers’ sailing the Brussels I ship way too far into arbitral shores.

For my general discussion of the issues see here. A timeline:

• When the Council came up with its first draft of what became more or less verbatim the infamous recital 12 I was not enthusiastic.
• When Wathelet AG in his Opinion in Gazprom suggested recital 12 did overturn West Tankers, I was not convinced. (Most of those supporting this view read much into recital 12 first para’s instruction that the Regulation does not impede courts’ power ‘from referring the parties to arbitration’).
• Indeed the CJEU’s judgment in Gazprom did not commit itself either way (seeing as it did not entertain the new Regulation).
• Cooke J was on the right track in Toyota v Prolat: in his view the Recast did not change West Tankers.
• Males J confirms: West Tankers is still good authority. At 69 ff he does not just point out that Wathelet was not followed by the Court. 92 ff he adds five more reasons not to follow the suggestion that West Tankers has been overruled. He concludes ‘that there is nothing in the Recast Regulation to cast doubt on the continuing validity of the decision in West Tankers (Case C-185/07) [2009] AC 1138 which remains an authoritative statement of EU law’.

I agree.
