Anadian Ba I ANADIAN BA I Vol. V. ,TORONTO, JUNE, 1927. No. 6 RECENi CASES ON G'O ICT OF LAWS. The past year has been remarkable for several decisions on the, subject of Conflict of Laws-decisions which have either definitely settled important general questions about which there was some doubt or definitely,raised again questions of -far-reaching consequence without, unfortunately, settling the doubts which exist. In the former class is the case of Attorney-General of Alberta v. Cook'- In the latter class are In re Annesley, Davidson v. Annesley,a and Republica de Guatemala v. NwneZ.3 1 . ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. COOré Attorney-General v. Cook (supra) (in the Privy Council, on appeal from Alberta) seems definitely to settle, in the negative, the question whether a wife can acquire a new domicile of choice different from that of her husband, in any circumstances, so long as the marriage subsists . The case was an extreme one in that the wife had obtained a decree of judicial separation in Alberta upon. evidence which satisfied the court that both spouses were resident in Alberta. The husband then left Alberta and, so far as was known, went to British Columbia. It was held, however, that he had never lost his Ontario domicile of origin, and therefore an action against him in Alberta for divorce was dismissed for want of jurisdiction . The case appears definitely to settle that in the absence of unity of law throughout the provinces in matters which depend upon domicile the territorial unit for the purpose of domicile is the province, not the Dominion-notwithstanding the practice, of the Dominion Parlia- ment of passing acts of divorce, in each of which it is recited that the parties are domiciled in Canada. The distinction is irdma-terial '[19261 A.C. 444, [19,61 2 D.L.R.762, (1926) 1 W.W.R. 742. a [19261 Ch. 692. e [19271 1 K.B. 669. 26--c.s.R:vm. v. 390 The Canadian Bar Review . [No. VI in the case of the Dominion Parliament, but its is crucial in the case of a court exercising divorce jurisdiction in a particular pro- vince, and it is submitted that in the interest of exact and uniform terminology Parliament should adopt the correct practice according to which domicile i~ predicated only of a particular province. Il. IN RE ANNESLT&Y . The case of In re Annesley, (supra), is of extraordinary interest . Russell, J., does some satisfactory things, but leaves the main prob- lem in a worse state than before, if that is possible. Mrs. Annesley, whose domicile of origin was English and nation- ality British, and who married a domiciled Englishman and British subject, became a widow in 1884, and thereafter lived continuously in France, except for four short visits to England, until her death in 1924, when she was over 80 years of age. Admittedly she had acquired a domicile of choice in France,, unless this result was prevented (a) by the fact that she had not applied for or obtained an authorization from the French government under article 13 of the French Civil Code (and therefore had not acquired a formal French "domicile"), or (b) by the fact that in a will made in 1919 and a codicil made in 1921 she declared that it was not her intention to abandon her English domicile of origin. Russell, J ., held that neither of these facts was sufficient to outweigh the other relevant facts proving a clear animus manendi combined with the factum of long residence. The judgment is useful as showing that a mere declaration of intention in favour of this or that domicile is imma- terial in the face of clear evidence derived from the conduct of the person in question, though doubtless such a declaration would have some weight if the other evidence were not clear. As to the effect of the absence of the authorization from the French government, the judgment is useful as restating the principle, that when an English court has to decide whether or not a particular person has acquired a domicile in a foreign country, it must decide this according to English rules of Conflict of Laws upon the facts proved, without regard to the question whether he has acquired a domicile by the law of the foreign country. This had been decided in a number of earlier cases, but had been questioned in In re Johmon,4 and ha re Bowes . In the former case, however, Far- well, J's., view on this particular question constituted only one of two alternative grounds of his judgment, and Swinfen Eady, J .'s, '[19031 1 Ch. 821 . (1906) 22 T.L.R. 711 . r - . June, 1927] Recent Cases on Conflict of Laws. 391 judgment in In re Bowes, (supra), which had masqueraded for ten years as a' considered judgment, was laid bare by Russell, J ., as having been delivered pursuant to the consent of the - parties and as being therefore of no value as a precedent. We are; however; only at the .beginning of--the..difficulties of In re Annesley, (supra) . Russell, J ., having decided that Mrs. Annesley was domiciled in France at the time of her death, then proceeded to apply the law of the domicile-French law-to the distribution of her English movables . But what French law? (a) The local or internal French law applicable to Frenchmen, or (b) the whole French law, including the French rules of Conflict of Laws? Russell, J ., would have liked simply to take the direct route (a) to French internal law, and distribute the movables as if 'they were assets of a Frenchman in France. But, upon principle (b), which had been acted upon in earlier English cases, he consulted French law, to ascertain what a French court would do in the case of a British subject domiciled (in the English sense) in France, and then (depart- ing as I submit from the principle) he decided on a review of the French decisions and "jurisprudence" that a French court would (1) refer to English law as the decedent's national law and (2) finding that English law would refer to, the law of the domicile, that is, French law, as the appropriate law,- would apply French law, that is, would accept the renvoi or reference back. Russell, J ., therefore applied internal French law, thus reaching the same result which he would, have preferred to reach by adopting . principle (a) . The result seems at first sight simple and satisfactory, but if the reasoning is worth anything it ought to produce the same result no matter which side of the English Channel one starts from. Now suppose that a French court is administering the French movables of the same estate. According to French law, the national law of the decedent applies, that is, English law. But what English law? {a.) The local or internal law of England applicable to Englishmen, or (b) the whole law of England, including English rules of Conflict of Laws? As English law accepts the doctrine of "the renvoi the French court should apply English internal law, either on principle (a), or -on principle (b) construed according to Russell, J . The result, as regards the estate as a whole, is nonsense. The English court applies French law and the French court applies English law. By another equally logical and more orthodox process one might arrive at another nonsensical result, though not quite so, devoid of common sense as the foregoing. The English court applies the law of the domicile, that is, French law, including the French rules of Bar 392 The Canadian Review. [No. VI Conflict of Laws, and, finding that the French law refers questions of succession to movables to the national law, that is, English law, English law accepts the renvoi and distributes the movables as if they were the movables of a domiciled Englishman. By a similar course of reasoning the French court distributes the French movables accord- ing to the internal French law. In any of the foregoing cases the court, English or French, which accepts the renvoi, has cut the Gordian knot of the circulus inextri cabilis-that is, the theoretical everlasting series of references back and forward from the law of the domicile to the national law and vice versa, or what Russell, J., has renamed the "endless oscillation" --either arbitrarily, or by adopting the deceptively simple formula of Collier v. Rivaf,6 namely, that the court should decide the ques- tion as if it were sitting in the foreign country. But in getting out of one circulus inextricabilis the court has got into another, namely, that if there are movables of the same estate in two countries, one of which adopts domicile as the test of personal status, and the other nationality, and if the two countries apply the same doctrine of the renvoi, the one to the law of the domicile, the other to the national law, the result always is that the movables will be dis- tributed in different ways in the two countries, either each court applying its own internal law, or each court applying the internal law of the other. The same result would follow if each country adopted Russell, J.'s, suggestion, namely, that the reference to the foreign law should, be interpreted as a reference to the internal law of the foreign country, excluding all question of the renvoi. Each court would apply the internal law of the other country. Russell, J., ingeniously, but I submit illogically, contrived in In re Annesley to reach the satisfactory conclusion that the English and the French movables should be distributed by the same Jaw, namely, French internal law, but he did so by supposing that different versions of the renvoi were applicable in France and in England respectively.

Ana Elizabeth Villalta Vizcarra and Dr. Carlos Manuel Vázquez, the Committee determined in its 62nd regular session that, because of the breadth of the general topic of “non-contractual liability” and the diversity of obligations encompassed in that category, the conditions for developing an Inter-American instrument harmonizing jurisdiction and choice of law for the entire category did not exist at this time.

    “DIGITAL LIBRARY'S LIABILITIES. WHICH LAW APPLIES? (COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT, BLASPHEMY AND HATE SPEECH)” Sarafianos Dimitris, Doctor in Law, Bar Office of Athens, Abstract: In this chapter we examine the way applicable law determines digital library’s author liability. First part deals with choice of law in cases of copyright infringement and concludes that Rome II Regulation establishes what the Berne Convention avoided: a general rule (lex loci protectionis) for all copyright issues arising from copyright infringement. This solution however causes new problems in the modern era of the internet and of simultaneous cross- border transmission of copyrighted works for the tort in this case is perpetrated simultaneously in many countries. Second part deals with cases where the publication of a work per se infringes the law, such as in the case of blasphemy, religious insult and hate speech. We argue that the relevant prohibitions constitute serious burdens to free speech and cannot establish civil liability for the author of digital library. Although, since this is not the opinion of ECHR, we conclude that the exception of personality related offences from Rome II Regulation creates great uncertainty as to the applicable law and the prerequisites of civil liability for the author of digital library Introduction The act of digitizing and placing a copyrighted work in an e-library can qualify as a tort and raise numerous questions of applicable law1. Such acts can be tortious, for instance, if committed without the authorization of the author or the copyright owner. In such case, copyright is infringed both by uploading the copyrighted work to the worldwide web (unlawful reproduction) as well as by making the work available to the public through the internet.

  • The Private International Law of the Netherlands J
    YALE LAW JOURNAL Vol. XXX DECEMBER, 1920 No. 2 THE PRIVATE INTERNATIONAL LAW OF THE NETHERLANDS J. OFFERPHAUS Of the Dutch Bar, Amsterdam A summary of the Dutch decisions on private international law should not be considered as a codification on a small scale of settled Dutch law concerning this subject. Judicial decisions have quite a different weight in the United States from what they have in Holland, and it is this difference which we intend to explain in this short intro- duction, lest the reader should attach greater importance to the follow- ing chapters than they deserve. In Holland a "precedent" is not a solid rock upon which one may rely. Any decision in a matter which the written law does not very positively settle, is apt to be followed by a deviating decision to-morrow. The lower judges are perfectly free to render a different judgment from that of the Supreme Court of the Netherlands (Hooge Raad der Nederlanden) or the Court of Appeal. However, it is the duty of the Supreme Court to set aside judgments when the written law has been infringed or misinterpreted. The Supreme Court will of course follow its own view in the interpretation of the law. It is advisable, therefore, for the lower judges to follow the ordinary inter- pretation adopted by the Supreme Court, for otherwise their decisions will most probably be reversed. There is no duty, however, to follow the ordinary decisions. Al- though it is advisable to accept the principles laid down by the Supreme Court, deviation therefrom is not a ground of defense in the lower court, and sometimes a judge has the pleasure of seeing that the Supreme Court agrees with him, changing its former views.

THE FORM OF WILLS* ERNST RABELt "Yielding Place to New: Rest Versus Motion in the Conflict of Laws"' - under this headline Herbert F. Goodrich, the eminent leader, recently reviewed improvements of judicial attitudes. Concluding his stimulating essay, he states that "motion and rest" must stay bal- anced; no total codification of uniform conflicts rules will be feasible until our experience is much enhanced. I fully agree. It is also my own impression that conflicts law needs infinitely more study and effort, not only by the courts, but also, and in the first place, by the scholars. But could not the approach toward reasonable and uniform judicial rules be speeded up a bit? Could the partial legislative ac- tivity, which Goodrich does not fail to mention, not enjoy more favor with draftsmen and legislatures? A very small but, in its close limits, rather significant piece of il- lustration may be offered here. When the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws was founded in 1892, practically their first work was the drafting of an act relating to the execution of wills.

  • Choice of Law
    CHOICE OF LAW I. F. G. BAXTER* Toronto Introduction Choice of law, by the prevailing theory, is a means of "shunting" a problem into one out of many systems of law. The starting point is that there are N systems, and a legal issue has arisen in a country which has jurisdiction to deal with it. The function of the choice of law rules of the forum is to reduce the number of possible solu- tions from N to one.' On a strict formulation of this theory, no special weight is given to the lexfori-it is not favoured as against the law of Ruritania.2 These ideas have an aura of international- ism, but choice of law rules are part of the total law of a given country and are limited by its boundaries as to enforceability. 3 The choice of law rules of a particular country may be motivated by "international" ideas and by principles deemed necessary and desirable for the social existence of countries inter se.1 In the severer forms of "shunting" theory, the comparative justice of the N possible solutions is not relevant. Therefore, the *I. F. G. Baxter, of Osgoode Hall Law School, Toronto, Ontario . ' The view of Batiffol, Aspects philosophiques du droit international priv6, (1956), is that the purpose of conflict of laws should be to promote co-ordination between legal systems, so as to minimise the inconveniences and injustices which stem from the multiple-system world in which we live. Cf. Batiffol, Traité élémentaire de droit international privé (3rd ed., 1959), p.

The law also covers such topics as the effective date of statutes, when custom should be treated as law, and the law applicable in family and succession conflicts.

  • Renvoi Theory and the Application of Foreign
    THE RENVOITHEORY AND THE APPLICA­ TION OF FOREIGN LAW.r I. Renvoi IN GENERAL. No question in the Conflict of Laws has given to the jurists of continental Europe greater difficulty during the last thirty years than the so-called 1·envoi theory. The following example may serve to suggest the problem. Suppose a citizen of the United States, formerly a resident of the State of New York, dies domi­ ciled in Italy, leaving personal property in the State of New York, and that a question arises before the New York courts with respect to the distribution of such property The obvious answer is : The lex fori having adopted the rule that the law of the domi­ cile of the deceased at the time of his death shall govern the dis­ tribution of his personal estate, Italian law is to be applied. But what is meant by Italian law? Is the New York judge to apply the Italian statute of distributions, or is he directed by the lex fori to apply Italian law in its totality, i. e., including its rules govern­ ing the Conflict of Laws? Should the lex fori refer to Italian law in the latter sense it would be found that in the Italian system of Private International Law the lex patrice has supplanted the le.1: domicilii in the present instance. If the question came before an Italian judge the personal estate would be distributed in ac­ cordance with the law of the country of which the deceased was a citizen or subject at the time of his death, that is, New York law.

  • The Qualification, Classification, Or Characterization Problem in the Conflict of Laws
    THE QUALIFICATION, CLASSIFICATION, OR CHARACTERIZATION PROBLEM IN THE CONFLICT OF LAWS By ERNEST G. LORENZENI I. THEF, problem in the Conflict of Laws which today is known on the continent as the problem of "qualification" and in recent Anglo-American literature as that of "classification" or "characterization" was brought to the attention of students of the Conflict of Laws fifty years ago. In the very year of the founding of the YALE LAW JOURNAL, Franz Kahn published an article in Jhering's Jahrbicher1 in which he pointed out that even if the rules of the Conflict of Laws in the different countries were the same, identity of results in individual cases would not follow because of latent conflicts inherent in the different systems of law. Bartin dealt with the same problem in 1897, under the title De l'im- possibilitj d'arriver a la suppression difiniiive des conflits de lois, ap- parently unaware of the fact that Kahn had written on the subject before him. Bartin spoke of the problem as one of "qualification," and since that time the problem has been known on the continent by that name.- There is no agreement among the writers concerning the type of ques- tions properly belonging to a discussion of the qualification problem. Some use the term in a very broad sense and others in a narrower sense. I shall deal with the following classes of cases: (1) The first class is one in which the fact situation is characterized under the law of the forum in a way different from that in which it is characterized under the lex causae- the law of the state or country with which it is connected.

  • Party Autonomy in Contemporary Private International Law ― the Hague Principles on Choice of Law and East Asia ― Yuko Nishitani*
    Party Autonomy in Contemporary Private International Law ― The Hague Principles on Choice of Law and East Asia ― Yuko Nishitani* I. Introduction The traditional method of conflict of laws or private international law in civil law countries originates in Savigny’s doctrine. It designates out of several conflicting laws the law with which the category of the relevant legal relationship has the closest connection (“seat”).1 This value- neutral, multilateral method consists in localizing the legal relationship concerned in a certain jurisdiction on the basis of the equality and interchangeability of domestic and foreign private law. It presupposes the territoriality of the relevant laws deriving from the state and a strict divide between public law and private law.2 This reflects the clear distinction between the state and the society, where value-neutral, abstract private law seeks corrective justice. This positivist idea corresponded to the Westphalian public international law system grounded on the juxtaposition of equal and independent sovereign states. It was taken for granted that sovereign states had, externally, the exclusive power of constituting public international law by signing treaties or giving effect to state practices in relation to other states, and, internally, the monopoly of * Professor at Kyoto University Graduate School of Law.

THE CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES GOVERNING THE FORMAL VALIDITY OF WILLS: PAST DEVELOPMENTS AND SUGGESTED REFORM By DONALD G. CASSWELL* A. INTRODUCTION The main objective of this paper is to discuss the conflict of laws rules of the common law provinces and territories of Canada relating to the formal validity of wills. However, this will only be possible after an examination of the evolution of the law in this area and an analysis and evaluation of the various connecting factors and, therefore, laws, which can be used in conflicts rules governing the formal validity of wills. The major themes to be dealt with in this paper are the historical evolution of the relevant conflicts rules, a discussion and evaluation of the various connecting factors available, a discussion of the traditional distinction made between property classified as movables and property classified as immovables and a discussion and evalua- tion of the existing statutory provisions in the common law provinces and territories.
