Skiljeförfarandet kategoriseras som en judiciell tvistlösningsmetod i Sverige och dess avgöranden går att verkställa enligt 3 kap. 15 § utsökningsbalken. Trots dessa förhållanden finns det inte i lagen (1999:116) om skiljeförfarande någon bestämmelse med innebörden att en skiljedom är förenad med rätts-kraft. Högsta domstolen har genom avgörandena NJA 1953 s. 751 och NJA 1998 s. 189 klargjort att

Kvittning – gemensam avräkning av motstående fordringar – kan trots sin affärsmässiga betydelse medföra komplexa behörighetsfrågor i skiljeförfaranden. Skiljenämndens behörighet är begränsad till det rättsförhållande som angivits i skiljeavtalet, vilket kan innebära att kvittningsframställningar från svaranden inte kan prövas. Samtidigt utgör kvittningsframställningar sakinvändningar, vars prövninSet-off – the mutual extinction of opposing claims – often gives rise to complex jurisdictional issues in arbitration despite its commercial importance.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den tekniska infrastrukturen i ett land rymmer en rad verksamheter vilka är att betrakta som naturliga monopol. För att hindra att monopolställningen missbrukas har verksamheterna ofta lagts under offentligt huvudmannaskap och regleringar har införts bland annat för att styra prissättningen. Priset regleras vanligtvis genom att avgiftsuttaget måste stå i någon form av rThis thesis, which consists of three studies illustrating different angles of approach, discusses problems pertaining to accounting and allocation costs in municipal water and sewage enterprises.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingens huvudsyfte är att försöka utreda hur man kommer till förståelse av det historiska huset och att diskutera vilken roll den historiska dokumentationen spelar i restaureringsprojekteringen. I restaurering som i allt annat arbete med arkitektur är förståelse ett nyckelord.

Grading of their participation was made by using a 5-point scale. An assessment was also made of what was considered as optimal participation in each situation. The results

Urban planning processes are complex and multidimensional and they require re-thinking of traditional approaches. One of the theories increasingly researched by urban planners is realisation of participatory planning to facilitate public participation. This approach, as an effective bottom-up method, should increase the capabilities of planners to solve urban problems by including the general publ

The purpose of this book chapter is to investigate to what extent technical function can be protected under European Union (EU) copyright law.

No such statutory provisions

Facial beat gestures align with pitch accents in speech, functioning as visual prominence markers. However, it is not yet well understood whether and how gestures and pitch accents might be combined to create different types of multimodal prominence, and how specifically visual prominence cues are used in spoken communication. In this study, we explore the use and possible interaction of eyebrow (Facial beat gestures align with pitch accents in speech, functioning as visual prominence markers.

Isotopic proveniencing has been applied to human inhumations and cremations as well as fauna from the Viking Age site of Birka and the surrounding Mälaren region, located in east-central Sweden. Human enamel frominhumations has been measured for strontium, oxygen, and carbon isotope ratios (petrous bone from cremations was measured for strontium only) to obtain information on mobility and diet. Se

In recent times, pragmatics has made more and more room for the theory of discourse. The switch in emphasis was triggered, amid other phenomena and theories, by the flourishing pf the communication theory, with its tenet that the process of communication is quite unstable and unpredictable. It is not only the context the one which distorts the transmission of messages, but also the mood of those i
