  The violation of fundamental rights of detainees stemming from the conditions of detention in penitentiaries and the right to a fair and public hearing within a reasonable time raise complex concerns, because in such cases the applicants have to submit a procedure under the Hungarian Prison Act or a lawsuit concerning the violation of certain rights relating to personality under the Hungarian Code of Civil Procedure or the Civil Code. The legal protection is uncertain, because the rules relating to prison conditions meet with rules of civil procedure and civil code rules. Court decisions do not help to find the way out of this incoherency. The questions mentioned in the present article raise serious dogmatic debates, casting doubt on the efficiency of the remedies.

  The Civil Code (Section 6:145.) excludes the possibility of parallel delictual claims of compensation for damages arising from breach of contract (non-cumul). This essay deals with the concept of concurrence of law and the concept of cumulation of causes of action and the relationship between contractual remedies and other sanctions grounded on a non-contractual basis. It examines the French doctrine of non-cumul, the proposal of DCRF and certain methods among the European legal systems. This essay analyzes briefly the two situations where the contractual and delictual bases could compete with each other and the application of the above mentioned provision may generate problems.
