The most striking word that illustrates the relationship between Romanian law and European law seems to be the word „marking". Among the various nuances that can be assigned to the meaning of this word, three meanings are relevant from the perspective of the topic addressed by this paper. Thus, among others, to mark means (i) to influence in a significant way, or (ii) to bear a mark that illustrates a membership, or more precisely (iii) to change a destiny. All of these nuances are defining in order to describe the decisive and irreversible „imprint" that European law has made, is making and will make on our domestic law. Through this scientific approach we have set out to address the implications of this complex structure which involves a multidimensional union that includes elements of supranational law, following the paradigm of the interference. The example that we will focus on is the area of consumer protection, where we will also address issues regarding constitutionality in relation to domestic law, but especially in relation to European law. We will consider both the past and the future, but, naturally, we will focus our attention on the present. In the context of the current COVID-19 pandemic, while not focusing on any medical or health matters related to the pandemic, but rather on its ties with the emergence of a new global economic, financial and banking crisis, we will address the link between European Union law and domestic law.

This study is devoted to some critical appreciations in connection with the use, in a relatively recent specialty paper, of some „practicist expressions“ in order to designate the territorial jurisdiction of the court of first instance to settle the divorce applications („court of first instance having jurisdiction over the place of residence of the defendant“, „court of first instance having jurisdiction over the place of residence of the applicant“ etc.). Likewise, our analysis also concerns the conclusions drawn within the same paper in connection with the concurrence between the territorial jurisdiction theses regulated by Article 3 (1) a) and those provided by letter b) of the Council Regulation (EC) No 2201/2003 concerning jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in matrimonial matters and the matters of parental responsibility, repealing Regulation (EC) No 1347/2000.

The interpretation and the application of the provisions of Article 31 (3) and Article 60 of the Labour Code have led to the existence of a non-unitary judicial practice and to the expression of some divergent positions in the doctrine as regards the applicability of the temporary prohibitions on dismissal in case of termination of the individual labour contract at the initiative of the employer, during or at the end of the period of probation. In a first doctrinal and jurisprudential orientation it is argued that Article 60 of the Labour Code is not applicable, because we are not in the presence of a dismissal, but of a separate case of termination of the individual labour contract at the initiative of the employer. The second opinion argues the thesis according to which the termination of the individual labour contract at the initiative of the employer during or at the end of the period of probation is also a case of dismissal, the legislative derogations aiming only at simplifying the dismissal procedure during the period of probation, and not at removing the temporary prohibitions on dismissal provided by Article 60 of the Labour Code. The paper emphasizes that, by applying the rules of interpretation of the domestic legal norms and the principle of interpretation in compliance of the national law with European Union law, it follows that the termination of the individual labour contract at the initiative of the employer during or at the end of the period of probation must be qualified as dismissal. In accordance with the principle of equal treatment and in order to ensure the useful effect of Council Directive 2000/78/EC of 27 November 2000 establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation, the corroborated interpretation of the provisions of Article 60 and Article 31 (3) of the Labour Code reflects the applicability of the temporary prohibitions on dismissal and in case of termination of the individual labour contract of the employee during the period of probation. The employees on probation enjoy the right to health and safety at work and the right to annual rest leave under the same conditions as the employees whose labour relations have been strengthened, with no express legal derogation as concerns the benefit of these rights. De lege lata, the difference in treatment is enshrined in law only for restricting the right to protection against dismissal, not for the restrictions brought to these fundamental rights as well.

Under European law, EU directives and the problems of their transposition into national law are an issue that reflects the complex nature of the relationship between EU's power to issue regulations and Member States' tasks in deciding the optimal form of application of these rules internally. This paper presents the experience of Romania, one of the new Member States which joined the EU in 2007, with regard to the transposition into national system of the European directives as a means to illustrate the dynamics of the relationship between the European Union and the Member States.

The paper deals with the issue of using hypnosis techniques in crime investigations. The author examines the criminal procedure implications of using such a forensic technique with reference to national legislation and the EU regulations, not avoiding to examine the controversial aspects in the legal literature and jurisprudence; however, the author concludes that the expertise would seem more appropriate to allow the use of hypnosis technique, provided that a clear distinction between hearing a person under hypnosis and the expertise of its discourse under hypnosis is achieved.

The aim of this paper is to identify how and if cultural diversity, as a fundamental and moral value of the EU, is effectively protected by EU law. I will start from the EU competences on cultural matters and try to find out if, while dealing with cultural issues, the EU is actually protecting its "unity without uniformity" and its "diversity without fragmentation". The recent and stronger intervention of the EU in cultural matters, after Lisbon, raises questions as to its real aims, be it the building of a stronger and stronger "small common denominator" in cultural issues as well, by means of uniformity or the real protection of cultural diversity of its Member States [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper, addressed to a specialised public, aims not only to analyse but also to clarify the difficulties encountered in accepting, understanding and applying the new law on "extended confiscation". This study wishes to offer the reader the opportunity to have access to academic opinions on the theme in order to better form an opinion based on the different interpretations available as well as on the reader's own perception. The first section takes us back in time to see the first similar regulations in Romania, their flaws, the differences between past realities and current realities as well as some similarities between what our "ancestors" imposed as law and the current achievements of the European Union. The second section treats the present, listing the different academic interpretations of the text, the conditions of application and the characteristics of the text, the true constitutional wars carried on the domain, as well as similar texts found in other states. Eventually, the third and final section takes a look at the future, basing itself on the new proposal for a EU Directive which would bring legal novelty in Romania. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
