A combination of information technology and medical care has given rise to a new type of medicine, i.e., telemedicine. Broadly defined, telemedicine is the transfer of electronic medical data from one location to another. Both at home and abroad, telemedicine has come to success in establishing appropriate equipment and solutions for such non-conventional medicine. Sooner or later, telemedicine is believed to find itself as one of the universal treatments. In order to facilitate the full-fledged development of telemedicine, a number of legal and institutional problems have to be settled. In Korea, the Medical Act was amended to include such provisions as telemedicine, electronic medical records, electronic prescriptions, etc. and the Act came into force on March 31, 2002. Telemedicine is in common with the conventional medicine in that a physician treats a patient. However, telemedicine is basically differentiated in the followings: - The offer and acceptance of treatment and medication are usually made on-line; - Telemedicine is inherently dangerous because a physician cannot meet face-to-face with a patient; and - Joint and several liability is borne by all the physicians involved in a telemedical consultation. As a result, telemedicine is vulnerable in nature to medical malpractice. Accordingly, there must be some new theories and arguments in the formation of contract and torts. The discussion on the civil liability covers the above-mentioned issues, and would give an insight or guidelines in the concerted operation of provisions with respect to telemedicine. This study delves into the civil liability of physicians involved in telemedical consultations and treatments based upon the conventional malpractice theory.

2019년 1월과 8월 영업비밀보호법과 산업기술보호법의 각각의 개정이 있었다. 이들 법률의 개정은 기술 보호에 크게 기여할 것으로 보인다. 그러나 민·형사적 구제와 관련하여 몇 가지 더 보완되어야 할 사항이 있다. 민사구제 분야와 관련하여 영업비밀보호법과 산업기술보호법의 경우 3배 손해배상 도입에도 불구하고, 입증자료제출과 관련된 규정은 정비가 되지 못한 상태이다. 따라서 입증자료의 제출 범위 확대, 손해액 산정을 위한 서류인 경우의 제출 강제, 서류제출 명령을 따르지 않는 경우 상대방의 주장을 진실한 것으로 인정하는 등 개정 특허법의 수준으로 정비될 필요가 있다. 한편 산업기술보호법은 손해배상규정이 도입되었지만, 손해액 추정규정이 없는 상태이므로, 일실이익·이익액·로열티 상당액에 대한 추정규정이 필요하다. 형사구제와 관련하여서는 영업비밀보호법과 산업기술보호법 모두 형벌의 상향화는 이루어졌지만 양형규정이 정비되지 못하고 있으므로 이의 정비가 필요하다. 또한 최근의 기술유출은 개인의 일탈을 넘어 조직적인 유출로 확대되고 있음에도 불구하고 이에 가담한 기업 등 관련 법인의 처벌에 대한 중과(重課)와 관련하여 개정이 필요하다. 일본과 미국의 경우 법인 중과 규정을 두고 있다는 점을 참고하여야 할 것이다. 또한 몰수제도와 관련하여서는 범죄수익은닉규제법에서는 방위산업기술은 국내유출도 몰수의 대상으로 하고 있는 반면에, 영업비밀과 산업기술은 '국외'유출만 몰수의 대상으로 하고 있으므로 이의 개정도 필요하다.

Recently, many nations said "yes" to human embryonic stem cell research, signing an executive order to permit funding for the research in the mame of achieving health and life of humankind. Human Embryo Research is permitted by our Bioethics & Biosafety Act. But, illegal research cannot be divorced from civil liability since it requires the destruction of eggs of fertilized eggs and personal rights of embryo-creator. After all, though we allow to do research embryo, we should control the capacity of abuse of embryo research for embryo-creator. If research violate the law(Bioethics & Biosafety Act or Civil Law, etc), it comes to a delict by pecuniary loss and non-pecuniary loss. When it comes to pecuniary loss, Human Embryo is not body but special property. Supreme Court maintained a stance that mental suffering is generally deemed as compensable for damages for the loss of property where a person's property right is invaded by a tort or non-performance of obligation. Thus, where mental suffering occurs, which cannot be compensated by recovery of property losses, the situation must be a special circumstance and the injured could claim consolation money for such losses only if the offender knew or would have known of such special circumstances(Supreme Court Decision 96Da31574 delivered on Nov, 26, 1996, etc.). That is to say, Supreme Court regards mental suffering through person's property right invaded by a tort as damages that have arisen through special circumstances. According to Civil law article 393 (2), the injured could claim consolation money for such losses only if only if the offender had foreseen or could have foreseen such circumstances. Also our court will solve through damages for non-pecuniary loss by complementary function of consolation money in that pecuniary loss could be difficult to valuate.

The Philippine government enacted the National Water Crisis Act in 1995, as a response to the burgeoning situation of water supply systems in the country. This act led to the privatization of Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS), sector having jurisdiction and control over all waterworks and sewerage systems in a service area including Metro Manila. Nowadays, the region's supply of water is still facing a lot of difficulties, both in quality and quantity. The unabated migration of people to the metro which increases its population, tapping from the aged pipelines, lack of water facilities and infrastructure, excessive groundwater withdrawal, environmental degradation, and surface and groundwater pollution are some of the issues that Metro Manila have to deal with. These situations lead to two primary water supply issues suffered by Metro Manila: water shortage and flooding. The purpose of this paper was to present water supply in Metro Manila with respect to the problems in its distribution, environmental implications and quality. In this paper, several technical reports, published literature, and news articles were consulted and became the major basis for identifying gaps and suggesting remedial measures.

Cyber defamation is the act of damaging the reputation of the other person on the Internet, and the act of attacking by the commenting the article through a word or blog. The reason why punishment is stronger than general contempt is that the nature of crime about defamation is worse than contempt. Also, punishment intensity is higher than defamation because the nature of cyber information spreads widely. Honor is not only a question of self-esteem or identity, but also a function that economically reduces the cost of seeking information or socially trustworthy. Through these two functions, it has been developed as a legal system to protect the honor as well as asking the legal sanction for defamation. However, although honor is used in various meanings in everyday life, the honor of legal level is understood in a more limited sense. It is because the law cannot actively lead and protect all honor feelings for one's feelings or mood occurred by hurt. However, if the social evaluation of a group or individual is undermined through a certain distortion of the truth, the law will actively intervene. However, due to the ambiguity of the legal sanctions standards and the identification of the parties involved in the defamation of cyberspace, it was difficult to solve the problems related to defamation in fact. Therefore, this paper will try to find out the problems of civil legal remedy due to the cyber defamation, and seek a solution for civil legal remedy.

The "arbitration" system resolves disputes through judgments on rights relations or claims between disputed parties by judging by private trial, but it does not have organizational and material bases to execute the contents of these judgments. Therefore, unless the parties succeed in voluntarily surrendering to the results of the arbitration award, the implementation of the award will be accomplished by the enforcement of the assistance of the National Court. However, unlike the court's ruling, the arbitration tribunal does not generate enforcement power from the judgment itself, and it must be filed with the court for execution. In this regard, Germany provides for arbitration proceedings in the Civil Procedure Act Volume 10. In particular, Article 1060 governs the approval and enforcement of domestic arbitral awards. Accordingly, the procedure for declaring the feasibility of domestic arbitration proceedings and the execution of forced execution are commenced. Regarding the enforceable declaration of a domestic arbitral award, it differs from the simpler process requirements compared to the procedure in a foreign arbitral award, and usually has the same effect as a final judgment between the parties without a separate approval procedure. However, the arbitration award does not constitute an enforceable power that can be implemented, but is enforced through the national court's declaration procedure. However, if there is a ground for cancellation as provided for in Article 1059 (2) of the German Civil Procedure Act, the arbitral award is canceled and the application for enforcement is dismissed.

"Arbitration" is a procedure to settle a dispute over property rights or disputes based on non-property rights that the parties can resolve through a reconciliation, not by a judgment of a court, but by an award of an arbitrator, and is a kind of Alternative Dispute Resolution(ADR). Arbitration is the most representative and efficient ADR system in many fields, so by activating it, disputes can be resolved smoothly and ultimately, and social costs caused by a heavy increase in lawsuit can be reduced. Arbitration costs are often evaluated as 'cheap', but in reality, they can be similar to or exceed litigation costs. Nevertheless, unlike the Civil Procedure Act, which stipulates the litigation aid system for those who are hard to pay litigation costs, the Arbitration Act or the Arbitration Industry Promotion Act does not have the arbitration aid system for those who are hard to pay arbitration costs. However, considering ① the utility of arbitration compared to other dispute resolution procedures, such as litigation, ② the possibility of resolving trial delays through vitalizing arbitration, ③ the need to guarantee access to arbitration, ④ the feasibility of revitalizing arbitration by the arbitration aid system, it is necessary to introduce the Arbitration Aid System. To explain the details of the Arbitration Aid System, a person who intends to apply for arbitration or a party who continues arbitration could be the applicant. Regarding the judge, this paper suggests the establishment of a council for arbitration aid to prevent the possibility of prejudgment by the arbitral tribunal. Also, if the council accepts the application for arbitration aid, it would be appropriate for the arbitral tribunal to determine the allocation of arbitration costs considering the decision of the council and to include it into arbitral awards.

의료분쟁은 전 국민을 대상으로 하는 의료보험사업의 시행과 더불어 건강에 대한 국민들의 관심이 증가하고 의료수요가 급격히 증가되는 가운데 필수 불가결하게 발생하는 문제이다. 분쟁의 대상은 대부분 의료인의 의료과오로 인한 형사적 처벌과 민사적 피해구제와 관련되는 것으로, 종래에는 합의에 의한 해결이 우선시 되었고 나아가 소송과 실력행사를 통해 해결하려 하였으나 명확한 기준과 관련 법제의 미비로 인하여 합리적이고 원활한 해결에 어려움이 있음을 부인할 수 없다. 이를 위하여 의료사고 처리와 의료분쟁을 분쟁당사자들 간의 자율적인 문제로 해결할 수 있도록 우여곡절 끝에 "의료사고 피해구제 및 의료분쟁 조정 등에 관한 법률"(이하 '의료분쟁조정법')은 2011년 4월 7일 제정되어 2012년 4월 8일 시행되었다. 이는 조정이나 중재로써 당사자 간의 갈등을 해결하려는 입법적인 취지가 있겠으나 의료분쟁조정법의 내용상 형사적, 민사적 관련 현행법과의 선결 되어야하는 문제와 더불어 헌법적 관점에서 고찰해야 할 검토 사항이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 의료분쟁 조정법과 헌법상의 쟁점 및 형법적, 민법적 쟁점사항을 알아보고 이에 대한 해결과제를 모색하여 보다 안정적이고 효율적인 의료분쟁의 해결이 될 수 있도록 하는 계기가 마련되기를 기대해 본다.

선박교통관제는 선박의 안전 및 사고 예방을 위한 제도이다. 국제해사기구, 국제항로표지협회는 일찍부터 선박교통관제와 관련된 규정을 제정해 오고 있었다. 우리나라는 2019년 12월 03일에 선박교통관제에 관하여 「선박교통관제에 관한 법률」이라는 단행법을 제정하였고, 2020년 6월 4일부터 시행될 예정이다. 본 논문에서는 「선박교통관제에 법률」의 제정배경을 살펴보고, 해당 법률 조항들을 비판적으로 검토하였다. 특히 선박관제사의 면책규정이 삭제된 연유를 집중적으로 검토하여 타당성 측면에서 동 법률의 개선방향을 제시하였다. 선박교통관제에 관한 단행법이 없는 대부분의 국가에서 우리나라의 법률을 참고할 수도 있다. 그러므로 「선박교통관제에 관한 법률」의 구성과 정의 부분 등에 대한 보완이 필요하다. 더불어 최초 법안 발의 시에 포함되었다가 입법과정에서 삭제된 선박관제사의 면책규정은 향후 법률 개정에서 재 반영되어야 한다.

안전점검과 관련된 규정 중 '건설기술진흥법'과 '시설물의안전관리에관한특별법'은 건설공사 시 안전에 관한 내용의 기술과 동시에 유지관리 측면에서의 안전점검에 관한 사항을 규정하여 건설산업의 사고예방을 담당하고 있다. 실질적인 근로자의 안전 확보를 담당하고 있는 규정이면서, 고용노동부의 안전점검과 관련된 유일한 규정이라 할 수 있는 '산업안전보건법 제32조 재해예방전문지도기관의 지도기준'과 '건설업산업안전 보건관리비 계상 및 사용기준'에 따라 건설공사 착공시 관련 기관은 계약과 동시에 준공 시까지 안전점검을 받도록 하고 있다. 그러나 발주기관에 따라 관리 정도의 편차가 심하여 소규모 민간 발주 공사현장은 안전점검이 형식적으로 이루어지고 있으며, 세부규정도 없어 안전점검 대가는 지속적으로 하락하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 제주지역에서 실질적으로 이루어지고 있는 안전점검의 현황을 조사하여 공사금액별 구분 비교하고 적정한 대가를 각각의 건설 관련 법에 근거하여 산출하고자 하였으며 나아가 세부 규정에 관한 개선방안을 제시하였다.
