Dans un contexte où les virus informatiques présentent un risque sérieux pour les réseaux à travers le globe, il est impératif de retenir la responsabilité des compagnies qui n’y maintiennent pas une sécurité adéquate. À ce jour, les tribunaux québécois n’ont pas encore été saisis d’affaires en responsabilité pour des virus informatiques. Cet article brosse un portrait général de la responsabilité entourant les virus informatiques en fonction des principes généraux de responsabilité civile en vigueur au Québec. L’auteur propose des solutions pour interpréter les trois critères traditionnels la faute, le dommage et le lien causal en mettant l’accent sur l’obligation de précaution qui repose sur les épaules de l’administrateur de réseau. Ce joueur clé pourrait bénéficier de l’adoption de dispositions générales afin de limiter sa responsabilité. De plus, les manufacturiers et les distributeurs peuvent également partager une partie de la responsabilité en proportion de la gravité de leur faute. Les entreprises ont un devoir légal de s’assurer que leurs systèmes sont sécuritaires afin de protéger les intérêts de leurs clients et des tiers.

In many European countries, one of the most complex and widely discussed issues addressed by legal systems with respect to forced selling of limited liability and public limited company shares is the impact of possible statutory restrictions on transfers . Thus, while some authors deny the applicability of such provisions (as a possible avenue for commission of creditor fraud) , others support their validity (on the basis of prevention of possible fraudulent actions affecting interests protected by restrictive causes). In my opinion, a solution must be found in which prosecution of creditor fraud co-exists with respect for the rights scheme. As a general rule, this solution would call for applicability of restrictive clauses to cases of forced selling, regardless of whether such statutory provisions are viewed in terms of order or alienation.

These articles evaluate using financial statement insurance (FSI) to reduce the frequency and magnitude of audit failure. The FSI concept was pioneered by Josh Ronen, NYU Accounting Professor, who has modeled its economic aspects. My paper examines FSI’s efficacy from policy and legal perspectives. I conclude that while the model is not perfect, it promises considerable advantages over the current model. While some of the existing system’s imperfections are sustained or reappear in different guises, none of the existing imperfections appears to be aggravated and the rest likely are mitigated significantly. So I prescribe a framework to permit companies, on an experimental-basis and with investor approval, to use FSI as an optional alternative to financial statement auditing backed by auditor liability.

It is with increasing frequency that States undertake unilateral acts. For that reason this article undertakes to demonstrate the development of unilateral acts of States in the heart of the International Law Commission of the United Nations - ILC. It analyzes unilateral and autonomous acts which can by themselves have juridical effects. In this sense, silence acquiescence and acceptance may have an influence in these acts.The ILC has studied this issue for ten years, analyzing its interpretation, the specific rules which are applicable, their modification, termination and the revocation of unilateral acts.
