IQ versus befolyásolás, avagy az intelligencia hányados és a befolyásolhatóság közötti összefüggések
39-46Megtekintések száma:242This is an essay about the connection of impressionability and intelligence quotient. The intelligence quotient of witness or accused has main role in the criminal procedure.
So, what is the intelligence and the intelligence quotient? The intelligence is a mental power, that contains the quality of argumentation, contemplation, learning, problem solution and the abstract thinking. This mental power helps to understand the happenings in the world. The intelligence quotient of the witness or accused is very important, because the quality of perception is based on the intelligence quotient. The perception shows how they can remember the criminal situations. The intelligence quotient depedns on the the social and cultural enviornment, the inherited qualities, and the personal experiences.
The important question is, which is the stronger, the intelligence or the impressionability. High intelligence quotient is a mean of the witness or accused to escape form impressionability. On the other hand, the authorities try to use the power of influence. So two powers meet in the criminal procedure, the intelligence and the influenceing, and usually the stronger is the winner.
The intelligence quotient has main role in the part of the investigation and the trial. The warnings before the interrogation are written in the difficult language of law. So it would be a problem in the part of investigation, because the witness or accused does not understand these. Because of that they would say or tell something that they would not tell in normal circumstances. The low intelligence makes the accused confess their real or believed sin. The accused with higher intelligence quotient understands much better the warning, and they can use those possibilites the law premits them. Their combinative quality is higher, so they discover another solutions not just the confessing. The authorities shall pay attention to the intelligence quotient of the accused, because the extremly low intelligence quotient would be the sign of mental retardation. The mental retardation is a kind of pathological mental state. The accused who suffers in pathological mental state is not be punishable or his or her punishment may be reduced unlimited.
The language of trials is also difficult and the other problem with it is publicity. The accused with low IQ feels shame because of their low IQ so they want to keep it secret. The accused becomes stressed in the trial so they lose their second chance to make things better, because they are not able to confess without impressions again. Low intelligence quotient usually cooperates with low ability of problem solution, so the accused with low intelligence can’t adapt themselves to the occassion of the trial. This circumstance would influence the judges, when they impose punishment, so the punishment would be stricter.
The conclusion is that the accused with low intelligence quotient meets with some difficulties during the criminal procedure, so the consuels for the defence shall pay attention to them, and help their clients with comments of the legal texts. On the other hand, the authorities shall be out for the good knowledge of mankind.

Mediation's possible influence on legal research methodology: a window on non-doctrinal legal approaches?
121-144Megtekintések száma:158Doctrinalism's dominance in legal scholarship, particularly in the traditional civil law European countries, has become an accepted truth. Nevertheless, new methodologies for legal research started to emerge and take different approaches to how studying law should be. This is the situation with the multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary methodologies, which present external methods that are open to various disciplines. Thus, they contradict doctrinalism's internal logic which is based essentially on the ‘black-letter reasoning’. Mediation is a process of a mixed sociolegal nature that we believe might boost the interest in a multidisciplinary approach, especially under the current context of the increasing regulatory tendencies encouraging recourse to this process and the failure of traditional and more formal procedures such as litigation to provide litigants with cost and time-efficient solutions. Nonetheless, it is reasonable to mention that several hurdles exist, including resistance to mediation to make this contribution. This paper aims to provide an overview of this methodological debate and the potential influence of Mediation as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanism in this context.

A bírói pervezetés és szubjektivitás – befolyásolás a tárgyalóteremben
59-65Megtekintések száma:236The image of the judicial proceeding and the impressions of the participants are defined by various facts. These are important things, because the prestigious environment and the skill-based human approach are key factors in the acceptance of the judgments. The article analyzes the possibilities of the judicial influence through examples: like the condition of the buildings, the appearance and behavior of the employees and the staff. The statements made by the accused during the investigations are also very important within these topics, because they can justify the charge and predict the process of the proceedings. The personality of judge has great importance in the lead of the proceedings – for example tone, questioning style, situation awareness and logic. These things above are definitely specify the way of the proceedings.

Sztereotípiák szerepe a bizonyítási eljárásban
79-85Megtekintések száma:144The aim of the study is to present the creation, development and forms of manifestation of the stereotype, furthermore, to represent how the certain created stereotypes influence the public thinking. The main trend of these ideas is to review whether the different stereotypical assumptions are shown in the course of demonstration and if yes, how they are emphatic. In addition to this I attempt to show how the generalizations gain ground in the criminal proceedings, especially in the demonstration. Prejudice will be examined from the aspect how the way of thinking of the adult population is pervaded by discrimination in Hungary today. My aim is to present how much the generalizations gain ground in the criminal proceedings, within this in the demonstration. In course of information and data collection I was led to the conclusion that in these days the stereotypes play very important role. In the course of my observations it became clearer and clearer to me that numerous stereotypes come round us. We think about different groups of people, things, situations, concepts in stereotypes. The range of stereotypes is quite wide. Stereotypes always have been and will be in human culture. We need them since they help to orientate in the world around us but they can be dangerous as well, since they can affect the minorities, genders and different groups of people disadvantageously.
As I have already mentioned, the main trend is to reveal the criminal projection of prejudice. We have to deal with the stereotypes, we have to know them in order to be able to handle them. I am convinced that some kinds of stereotypes live in everyone, we think in stereotypes many times, even when we do not notice them. If the stereotypes extremely consolidate, stiffen, they can easily become prejudices hurting others. Prejudiced way of thinking hides very much danger, it is important to be aware of the prejudices existing in us and to try to get them over. From the point of view of the topic discrimination can realize in the course of arrest, demonstration, formal accusation and rendition of the judgement.

A közigazgatás szervezeti változásai a szabálysértési jog fórumrendszere tükrében
Megtekintések száma:222The paper introduces the most recent processes taking place within the Hungarian public administration from a special aspect and follows the system of the authorities of the misdemeanor law from the 19th century to nowadays. It presents the system of the monarchy, the councils and the period after the change of regime. The Constitutional Court with its Resolution no. 63/1997 (XII. 12.) declared the dual nature of offences – being against public administration and bagatelle cases pertaining to criminal law – and although with a different legal reasoning, it prescribed the right of access to court in both cases. The mentioned separation has resulted in conceptual problems exerting their influence to this day, at the same time the majority of authors dealing with this field instead of the majority opinion accepted the concurrent explanation of László Sólyom, to which Constitutional Court Judges János Németh and Tamás Lábady also joined. In 2012, however, several important changes took place simultaneously. The new Act on Offenses shifted towards criminal law while it terminated the right of local governments to regulate offenses. In parallel with this, the Act on Local Governments at the beginning provided an opportunity for the local governments to sanction anti-social behavior which was revoked by the Constitutional Court in the same year. The paper investigates the effect of the decisions of the Constitutional Court and analyzes the opportunities of public administration within the present legal framework to apply sanctions and defines those criteria on the basis of which the legislator could settle the current situation.

A téves ténymegállapítás egyes pszichológiai aspektusai
Megtekintések száma:334Psychology plays a main role in the criminal procedure. The psychological methods started being used only in the 19th century. During the legal proceedings the autorities must deal with people. The behavior of the people is very different. The authorities must know the basic rules of the psichology to understand the accused people and witneses. The human memory has a lot of regularity. The knowledge of these regularities make easier the efforts of the authorities to get the truts. The importance of the pschichological knowledge in the legal occupation is unquestional. Overbearing police methods creat too high risk of false confession and are not likely to yield factually reliable information from the accused. A significant number of confessions that result in wrongful convictions are obtained through coercive questioning. This paper examines false confessions and discusses the psychological and social factors that influence the verdict in criminal procedure and how often do false confessions lead to miscarriages of justice. In determining the admissibility of confession evidence, the courts have to considere factors such as mental abuse in addition to physical force and threats.

A büntetőeljárás nyilvánosságának jogszabályi hátterében húzódó alapjogi kollíziók feltárása, különös tekintettel az ágazati titokvédelemre
Megtekintések száma:201The right to a fair trial by an independent and impartial tribunal is a fundamental right everybody is entitled to. Through such right, transparency and publicity becomes an important guarantee of the administration of justice, in a broader sense, and as a procedural principle of different court proceedings as well. The collision between the requirements of privacy protection and transparency impose challenges on the legislator, the legal practitioners and on the judicial practice as well, from many aspects. Beyond issues of data protection, these requirements influence the publicity of the courtroom, the publicity of proceedings to the press, and the protection of personality rights.
In the general interpretation publicity is a safeguard which guarantees the indecency and impartiality of the court and it is also a significant instrument of social control. The study distinguishes between the different level of publicity in a criminal procedures such as “socially publicity”, “courtroom publicity” and “client publicity” and examines practicable problems like online-streaming during the criminal court proceeding.
In order to ensure the transparency of courts, the information stored must be provided to the parties, other authorities, and the media, taking into account applicable legal provisions.
When it comes to the operation of courts, one of the biggest problems with regard to the constitutionality of data processing is when the qualification of a particular data is changed several times in different procedural stages, and is – consequently – subject to different legal protection. Needless to say that the same data cannot be considered as both public and protected at the same time in the same procedure. However, this issue arises regularly, which is quite frankly a legal nonsense requiring an immediate and comprehensive solution.
Finally the study mentions some de lege ferenda recommendations as well.

A fővárosi önkormányzat új szervezetének kialakulása
Megtekintések száma:152After demonstarting a short historical and national angle in my study, I would like to sketch a general survey about the rising and the operation of the capital local government between 1989 and 1994. This period was the beginning of establishing the system of local governments. This period resulted a remarkable turn to the direction of the capital level.
Now this subject belongs to the history of public administration, but it is still a current question from many points of view. It is true that the relationship between the capital and the district local governments is rather contradictionary, as this is true for the relationship of the regime and the government.
The development of the capital local government can be approached only if we examine the whole local government system. The governmental system and its contemporaries made influence to the operation of the capital local government too, especially in two fields, on the one hand the specific structure of the capital local governmental system, on the other hand the disintegrated structure of the capital agglomeration.
The special structure of the capital local government influenced significantly the relationship of the local governments and the capital, and the relationship of the capital and the regime. The sharing of the tasks and the financial sources were a source of tensions between the capital and the districts. There was a great need to use long-term principles in sharing these sources. The conflicts became deeper and deeper, because the competencies were not clearly divided, and some investments failed because of the resistance of the district local governments.
The relationship of the regime and the capital determines the special position of the capital, and the strong dependence on the state supports. This situation can be worse by the conflicts in the political principles of the capital local governments and the regime.

Előreláthatósági klauzula a szerződések jogában
Megtekintések száma:140The essay is about the clause of foreseeability in connection with damages for breach of a contract. This seems to be a constant problem throughout the history of law how and when it is reasonably to limit the amount of damages in case of breach.
The general principle of full compensation originates in the main purpose of private law, restoring the violated financial situation. At the same time in business relations it often happens that damages occurred as consequences of breach highly exceed the contractual interest of the party and generate indirect damages independent from the violator’s influence. This is considered to be the starting point of the dilemma about restricting the damages availably for compensation.
Full compensation and its relation to breach of a contract occurred in the Hungarian jurisprudence many times. Miklós Világhy suggested the reconsideration of full compensation in contract law in 1971. Attila Harmathy also suggested the implementation of foreseeability clause in the rules of contract law as the ‘best possible way to treat business relations between the parties’.
Due to the historic and social differences various forms of foreseeability are known in the legal systems.
The study examines the development of foreseeability, its first codification in the French Napoleonic Code Civil, its application in the law of the USA and some significant sentences of English courts. The first application of foreseeability was in the infamous Hadley v. Baxendale case, in which an English court worked out the meaning of contemplation rules. In the case of Victoria Laundry Ld. v. Newman Industries Ld. (1949) the court defined the meaning of foreseeability. According to the sentence of the case damages are limited to those that were foreseeable for the party at the time of entering a contract. The study also analyzes the German model of restricting damages of breach. The German theory ensures the possibility of exoneration for the violator if the other party failed to give proper information about the unusual danger of breach in the particular case. If the entitled party acted intentionally, the German law accepts exoneration. The essay demonstrates the adequate causality conception of the German law. This theory states that an act can only be the probable cause if – due to the normal and reasonable procession – it is able to cause such consequence. In our opinion foreseeability gives a stricter and much better solution of restricting damages with a more objective measurement for the obliged party on how to calculate his behavior in a certain contractual relation. The amount of risk can be predicted if the rules of damages for breach are based on foreseeability rather than adequate causality.
The new Hungarian Civil Code plans to establish objective liability in contract law. The only exoneration can be the successful reference to unavoidable external cause. Beside this stricter liability the new Civil Code also introduce the possibility of limitation in damages, the application of foreseeability clause. This seems to be a significant preference for the obliged party. As in the Hungarian legal history foreseeability clause was never used, it is an essential question how judicature will interpret the rule in practice. In our opinion for an adequate application of the new clause it is necessary to take a closer look at the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods (CISG), the Principles of European Contract Law (PECL) and the interpretation in the American and English case law. This study tries to give some help for it.

A családi gazdasági társaságok és a szindikátusi szerződések lehetséges kapcsolódásai
99-124Megtekintések száma:173A családi társaság fogalmát nem adja meg a hatályos jog. Azon gazdasági társaságok esetében, amelyekben egy család tagjai rendelkeznek döntő befolyással kizárólag formai megközelítést tesz lehetővé. A formai megközelítésen túl ugyanakkor a tartalmi kérdések, a családi érdekek és értékek sajátosságai ezen gazdasági társaság vizsgálatát más szempontok szerint is indokolják, amelyek alapján nem csak a hosszú távú üzletszerű gazdasági tevékenység, hanem a családi viszonyok jellegadó sajátosságai is vizsgálhatók társasági jogi alapon. Fentiek szerint a családi gazdasági társaságokban a családi viszonyok megjelenítése, a nemzedékeken átívelő működés igénye és családi jellegének védelme, továbbá a család tartós jólétének biztosítása kiemelkedő jelentőségű. A formai és tartalmi elemek együtteséből megállapítható, hogy a családi gazdasági társaságok olyan különleges jogi személyek, amelyekben egy meghatározott családi közösség döntő befolyása érvényesül, sajátos érdekeket és értékeket vall és képvisel, amelyek közül a családi vagyon védelme, a nemzedékeken átívelő működés célja, a családtagok tartós jólétének biztosítása emelendő ki. Ezen érdekek elérésének többes eszközrendszerét biztosítja a Polgári Törvénykönyv, a klasszikus társasági jogi eszközökön túl többek között a szindikátusi szerződésesek lehetőségével.

Benedikt Carpzov két műve a debreceni levéltárban
1-11.Megtekintések száma:211Jelen tanulmány célja, hogy kultúrtörténeti adalékkal gazdagítson egy a 18. századi magyar büntetőjogtörténet szempontjából fontos kutatási témát. Benedikt Carpzov a 17. századi neves szász jogtudós magyar büntetőjogra gyakorolt hatásának mélyebb feltárása az egyes magyar bírói fórumok esetjogában a 18. századi magyar büntető jogtörténeti kutatások egyik érdekes irányaként határozható meg. Az eddig vizsgált büntetőperanyag alapján Carpzov műveit Debrecen szabad királyi városban is alkalmazták és két munkája fenn is maradt a Magyar Nemzeti Levéltár Hajdú-Bihar Megyei Levéltárában. Jelen kutatás erre a két kötetre (közülük is elsősorban a büntetőjogtörténet szempontjából jelentősebbre) fókuszál és próbál meg minél több részletet feltárni különösen azzal kapcsolatban, hogy mikor kerülhettek a kötetek Debrecenbe. A művek vizsgálata, a debreceni büntetőperanyag elemzésén túl, azért lehet hasznos a „carpzovi hatás” kutatása szempontjából, mert a kötetekben található bejegyzések, aláhúzások és más szövegkiemelések vizsgálata segítheti annak megértését, hogy hogyan értelmezték a debreceni jogalkalmazók Carpzov műveit. Jelen írás bevezető tanulmányként a Carpzov-kötetekben található bejegyzések mélyebb vizsgálatát kívánja megalapozni és előkészíteni.

A CISG és a UPICC gyakorlati jelentőségének megítélése
21-40Megtekintések száma:417Jelen tanulmány elsődleges célja a jogirodalom által kifejezetten jelentősnek titulált, a nemzetközi kereskedelmi jog területén megalkotott jogi szabályozók közül a Bécsi Vételi Egyezmény (CISG) és a Nemzetközi Kereskedelmi Szerződések Alapelvei (UPICC) értékelésének útján annak megállapítása, hogy a vizsgálat tárgyává tett jogi instrumentumoknak mekkora a tényleges gyakorlati relevanciája, alkalmazási volumene. A kitűzött célok megvalósítása érdekében a tanulmány a CISG tekintetében a rendelkezésre álló empirikus kutatások eredményeire, míg a UPICC vonatkozásában az elérhető esetjogi kivonatokra támaszkodik. A Bécsi Vételi Egyezmény esetében megállapítható, hogy az Egyezmény gyakorlati alkalmazásának volumene mérsékelt, elmarad attól a sikerességtől, amit a jogirodalom tulajdonít a számára, míg a UPICC közzétett joggyakorlatának a revíziója eredményeként egyértelműen rögzíthető, hogy az UNIDROIT Alapelvek elsődlegesen a nemzeti jog, valamint a nemzetközi egyezmények értelmezését, kiegészítését hivatott elősegíteni, a felek hajlandósága a UPICC elsődleges alkalmazása iránt rendkívül csekély mértékű.A tanulmány továbbá foglalkozik a jogi szabályozók nemzeti jogalkotásra gyakorolt hatásaival is, mely körben mindkét instrumentum vonatkozásában megfigyelhető a jelentős mértékű befolyás az egyes országok polgári anyagi jogi kodifikációja tekintetében.
