Adhesion Proceedings in Switzerland - Inspiration for Czech Lawmaker

Publication at Faculty of Law |
2015

Abstract

The article contains an analysis of swiss adhesion proceedings. In the first chapter I focus on the parties to adhesion proceedings, i.e. on the individual who asserts civil claims (civil claimant), as well as on the person who is supposed to settle these claims (accused).

In the second chapter I specify civil claims, that are the subject-matter of adhesion proceedings. In the last chapter I describe the course of adhesion proceedings in four stages - the commencement of adhesion proceeding, the decision on civil claims, appellate hearing procedure and enforcement of judgement.

Following the analysis of swiss legal regulation I put forward proposals for czech lawmaker.
