In order to take the civil law exam, students are required to have passed private law course.
It is essential to have a sound knowledge of the institutional rules and principles of private law. For this reason, it is recommended, before or while studying civil law exam, to review the fundamental notions of property law.
The assessment will be through an oral exam, with the final grade in thirtieth (30/30).
The assessment will take into account the in-depth knowledge of the rules and principles of property law, the knowledge of scholar’s opinions and of case law, the ability of autonomous critical reworking, the ability to speak and argue.
The civil law course is a two-year course.
The civil law I course will deal with obligations in general.
The Civil Law II course will deal with property law.
There is also an additional, non mandatory course, on business contracts which completes the educational offering.
The main objective of the Civil Law II course is to enable the students to deepen a specific subject of the Italian civil law and to access the more subtle level of theoretical reflection elaborated by scholars and case law.
The student is expected, at the end of the course, to demonstrate: (a) knowledge and mastery of the discipline of property law; (b) autonomous ability to critically analyze the rules in the light of the contributions of scholars and case law; (c) ability to appropriately use the legal language; (d) ability to solve questions pertaining to property law; and (e) ability to connect the rules regarding property with other civil law rules, demonstrating the ability to correctly solve the cases under study in the system of norms and principles of Italian private law.
The course deals with the main issues of property law.
In particular, the following topics will be addressed: a) notion of property in general; b) inter vivos and mortis causa transfer of property; c) protection of property; d) co-ownership; e) trusts and fiduciary property; f) restrictions on property; g) new frontiers of property law
The course takes place over 40 hours in the first semester. Lessons will be delivered through frontal teaching. During the lesson, the professor will show a power point presentation that will be uploaded to the e-learning platform of the course.
During the course there will be some theoretical lessons, aimed at illustrating the principles and rules governing the contract in general, and some lessons dedicated to the discussion of case law. The latter aim to promote the students' acquisition of legal argumentation techniques and critical capacity.
I strongly advice the students to attend the class.
For non-attending students, the professor will give futher references and bibliografy.
