Dr. Arber Gjeta Lawyer, Professor of Business Law, Department of Law, Faculty of Economics, Aleksander Xhuvani University of Elbasan, Rruga Rinia, 3000 Elbasan, Albania Dr. Juliana Bylykbashi Lecturer of Civil Law, Department of Civil Law, Faculty of Law, University of Tirana, Rruga Milto Tutulani, Tirana, Albania Doi: 10.36941/mjss-2020-0009 Abstract The transport legislation in Albania has a character of specialty. Through this paper we aim to offer an analysis of the Albanian legal provisions on transport contract according to the Civil Code. This study will deal with the contract of transport of goods. The analysis of the contract will be in a historical, empiric and doctrinal point of view on the regulation offered by the Civil Code and the similarities to the Italian Civil Code. The actual regulation of the contract of transport in Albania is relatively new and there are only a few claims brought into courts that make very difficult a deep analysis of the implementation the legislation. The lack of causes brought into courts mainly has to be recognized to the arbitration clauses in favor of foreign arbitrators as for the transport of goods by sea or the solution on transaction basis as well as, regarding Civil Code provisions, the camouflage of the contract of transport with other types of contracts.

  • Administrative Procedure in Albania
    ISSN 2039-2117 (online) Mediterranean Journal of Social Sciences Vol 6 No 1 S1 ISSN 2039-9340 (print) MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy January 2015 Administrative Procedure in Albania Pranvera Xhafaj (PhD Candidate at Tirana European University), Tirana, Albania [email protected] Doi:10.5901/mjss.2015.v6n1s1p438 Abstract The court and the parties constitute the core of administrative procedural legal relations, but besides them, third persons can also participate in these relations, who are part of litigation, such as the bailiff in the execution phase and when this process becomes part of the trial process on complaint. They conduct procedural actions with the active participation, in accordance with administrative procedural norms, influencing the "course, development and completion of the trial". This paragraph shall constitute the purpose and objectives of this paper. In administrative procedural relations attend some subjects who carry certain procedural rights and duties provided by applicable law. The main subject in this relation is the court because of its crucial role in the development of these administrative relations. The Court has a leading and unique position because it is only the court which has the right to resolves an administrative issue giving the final decision. This stems from the fact that the court is the only body authorized by law to administer justice and as such it binding participates in all relations arising during the trial of cases (Adv. N.Uka, Adv. J.Brati "Magistracy & Advocacy", "ILARI" P.F., Tirana, 2012, p. 454.) The methodology used is qualitative comparative of the two main doctrines on administrative procedure: Years of dictatorship (1962) and nowadays (2012).
