Course Description:
Covers the study of the legal rules of some negotiable instruments (bill of exchange, promissory notes and checks), the general rules of Commercial Contracts and some specific Commercial Contracts in particular. The concept of contract, its essential elements, the rights and obligations of the contracting parties, its effects and inefficacy are further analyzed. When studying Contract Law we have to take into account the European legislation as well as International Commercial Law of contracts because there is a tendency towards its uniformity. The protection of consumer's perspective is to be also adopted to approach Commercial Contract Law, making a special reference to the conclusion of contracts with general conditions. The main contracts to be studied are: the contract of sale, the contract of deposit, the contract for carriage of goods, the collaboration contracts (agency, commission agency, distribution, franchising), the insurance contract, and credit and secure transactions, among others.
