nnJoin us for the second edition of the civil law conference as we delve into the pivotal topics of the theory of imprévision and the intervention of the judge in civil law
contracts.
Explore the intricate balance between the theory of pacta sunt servanda and the authority granted to judges to intervene in specific circumstances in the parties’
agreements. Engage with experts and hear comparative approaches with respect to the theory of imprévision and the judicial intervention in case of non-performance of the
contract by a party.
Law professors, judges and practitioners from the MENA region and other civil law jurisdictions will provide insight into how these topics are implemented in various civil law
jurisdictions.
Both civil law and common law professionals, from the private and public sectors, in-house and outside counsel would benefit from and contribute to a comparative
discussion on these fundamental concepts. The discussion will be led both on theoretical and practical levels by eminent academics and practitioners.
Co-chaired by Lara Hammoud and Carine Dupeyron.
