Breadcrumb Abstract Shape

This course provides an advanced study of private international law principles governing cross-border legal relationships, with particular emphasis on family law, matrimonial causes, status, and related jurisdictional questions. It examines how courts determine the applicable law, recognise foreign legal acts, and resolve conflicts arising from differing legal systems.

The course explores marriage as a legal institution and status, the laws governing its validity and character, and the conflict rules that arise when marriages, family relations, and personal status span multiple jurisdictions. 

Through case analysis, statutory interpretation, and problem solving exercises, students will develop the ability to determine applicable law, analyse jurisdictional issues, and resolve conflicts affecting marriage, family relations, and personal status.

The course is designed to strengthen analytical precision, deepen understanding of transnational legal issues, and equip students to handle examination questions and practical legal problems involving multiple legal systems.
