Università Roma Tre

This course complements and completes the Private Law I course and, since it deals with the "special part" of the subject, it necessarily presupposes knowledge of the topics covered in the "general part".
In particular, the following topics will be analysed:
a) The legal institutions regulated in Book III of the Civil Code (goods, property rights, ownership and possession);
b) Family law (all the institutions governed in Book I of the Civil Code, from Title V to Title XIV);
c) Inheritance law (all the institutions governed in Book II of the Civil Code);
d) All the typical contracts governed in Book IV of the Civil Code (thus excluding the employment contract and the company contract in Book V), as well as the most significant contracts governed by special laws;
e) The best known and most significant non-typical contracts in business practice;
f) The entire subject of civil responsibility (Title IX of Book IV of the Civil Code) in all its aspects with attention paid to the evolutionary lines and jurisprudential elaboration.

SALVATORE MAZZAMUTO, Private Law Manual, 4th edition, Giappichelli, 2022, ISBN 9788892122482.
The study must in any case be supported by reading the Civil Code and the special laws referred to from case to case. To this end, we recommend the latest edition edited by Di Majo Adolfo - Pacifico Massimiliano - Giuffrè Editore.

The course of Institutions of Private Law II is aimed at allowing students the critical deepening of some typical institutions of private law understood as that complex of rules that govern the intersubjective relationships between the individual members in their patrimonial sphere but also personal and family. Particular attention will be paid to the right of people - physical and legal - to which the system recognizes the quality of subjects of law, that is, holders of active and passive legal situations. Family law will also be studied in depth, consisting of a set of legal rules that concern not only the traditional family based on the marriage of a heterosexual couple, but also civil unions between persons of the same sex and de facto cohabitation, recently debated reforms. The law of succession will also be addressed, whose provisions are aimed at regulating the personal and patrimonial relations of the individual after death, and the subject of real rights, that is rights over things, with particular reference to the ways of purchasing and of transfer of the right of ownership between the living, as well as the real rights of enjoyment, possession and usucation. A special look will also be given to some special contracts (sale, lease, lease, sale and lease back, factoring, franchising, contract, mandate, deposit, loan, mortgage, transaction, consumer contracts) and finally to the delicate issue of civil liability, the complex of illicit facts to which a compensation obligation arises for those who have caused unfair damage.
