I skrivelsen Skärpt straff för mord presenterar Justitiedepartementet ett lagförslag som syftar till att förändra tillämpningen av påföljderna för mord. Förslaget innebär att samtliga fall av mord där försvårande omständigheter föreligger ska straffas med livstids fängelse. En stor del av dessa gärningar leder enligt gällande rätt och nuvarande rättstillämpning till ett längre tidsbestämt fängelseIn their official letter Sharper punishments for murder the Ministry of Justice presents a bill to change the choice of sanctions for murder.

Automatiska förlängningar av avtal innebär att en ny bindningstid inträder om konsumenten inte senast vid viss tidpunkt säger upp avtalet. Att konsumentens passivitet är den omständighet som gör att den nya avtalstiden inträder, har bland annat gjort att sådana förlängningar jämförts med negativ avtalsbindning, vilket svensk rättsordning inte accepterar. Situationen är emellertid annorlunda när paAutomatic extension of contracts means that time-limited contracts are automatically extended unless the consumer terminates the contract a certain amount of time before it is to expire. The fact that the consumer’s inactivity is the reason why the contract is being extended has even led to a comparison between such automatic extensions and an illegal form of contracting called negative contract b
There is a problem with overtraining when applying Artificial Neural Networks to a classification problem. One factor that strongly influences the overtraining is the network topology. Understanding the role of the network topology is therefore important to enable the creation of more efficient Artificial Neural Networks.
I kommersiella relationer är det vanligt att kontraktuella rättigheter överlåts till tredje part. Om huvudavtalet innehåller ett skiljeavtal uppstår frågan huruvida de nya parterna automatiskt i och med rättighetsöverlåtelsen är automatiskt bundna även av detta. Den tillträdande avtalsparten har av HD ansetts skiljebunden på grund av rättspolitiska överväganden och principerna i 27 § SkbrL. FråganIn commercial relationships, it is common that contractual rights are transferred to third parties. If the general agreement contains an arbitration agreement, the question arises if the agreement to arbitrate after a transfer of rights becomes automatically binding between the new parties. For instance, The Supreme Court has ruled that the new party is automatically bound due to legal policy cons

Reglerna rörande tvångslikvidation på grund av kapitalbrist tillhör några av de äldsta reglerna i dagens aktiebolagslag. Deras syfte är att förhindra att bolagets aktiekapital förbrukas genom att föreskriva en rad åtgärder som bolagets styrelse måste vidta när det egna kapitalet befaras understiga hälften av det registrerade aktiekapitalet. Om inte dessa regler följs på ett korrekt sätt riskerar sThe rules regarding compulsory liquidation due to lack of capital are some of the oldest rules in the Swedish Companies Act.

Skjutbanor klassas av svensk miljölagstiftning som miljöfarlig verksamhet till följd av utsläpp av fasta ämnen, främst bly och PAH. I Sverige finns det totalt ca 5000 aktiva skjutbanor och många fler nedlagda. Den som bedriver en verksamheten måste skaffa sig kunskap om hur verksmaheten påverkar människors hälsa och miljön. Dock förekommer det kunskapsluckor hos de som bedriver verksamhet på skjutA literature review of the impact of shooting ranges on land and the environment has been done on behalf of the Swedish Shooting Sport Federation.

The activity at shooting ranges is by Swedish environmental law classed as harmful to the env
Cerenkov luminescence imaging (CLI) is an up-and-coming optical technique for in vivo imaging of beta-emitting radioisotopes. CLI relies on measurements of the Cerenkov radiation emitted when high-energy beta-particles travel through tissue. Compared to the well-established methods for radionuclide imaging, SPECT and PET, CLI has a potentially higher throughput for superficial measurements. The de
