Course contents :

| After an introduction whose purpose is to set private law within the Belgian legal system, we address the topic of private rights (notions of real rights and claims; birth, transmission and extinguishment) as well as the concept of possession in patrimonial and non-patrimonial domains.
The ¿legal act¿ (definition, classifications, creation, performance, effects regarding people) will then retain our attention, before we examine a specific ¿legal fact¿, the one of ¿civil responsibility¿ (torts).
In the final part of the class, focus is given to the subjects of Evidence in civil law (ways of proving, admissibility and power of various ways of proving, specificities of proving transactions on the Internet) and to the notion of legal personality (study of natural and legal persons and their capability). |
