THE ROLE OF LEGAL FACTS IN THE CREATION, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION OF CIVIL LAW RELATIONS

Abstract

The paper presents legal facts and analyzes their impact on civil law relations. It is guided by the
generally accepted division of legal facts in the legal science – the division of events and human
actions. Also, the special category of legal facts - the will of the state bodies expressed in the
specific legal acts, is taken into consideration.
The analysis of the impact of legal facts on civil law relations is executed in three specific points
and covers three categories of legal facts. The first point analyzes the impact of the most
significant events in civil law: birth, age, expiration of the legally prescribed deadline, disease,
intellectual disability, death, force majeure, conclusion of marriage and adoption. The second
point covers the analysis of the impact of human actions as legal facts on civil law relations. The
two separate categories of human actions are presented individually i.e. legal human actions
(declarations of will and actions in accordance with the law) and illegal human actions (torts).
The third point presents the impact of the will of the state bodies and how it affects the civil law
relations, i.e. the obtainment and the termination of the civil subjective rights. The analysis is
executed through several administrative procedures in which the civil subjective rights are
obtained or lost under the influence of the will (acts) of the state bodies.
