Frammenti di storia polacca (nel prisma della Biblioteca della Corte costituzionale)

(10.10.2024)

Abstract

The paper highlights to what extent the Library of the Constitutional Court, which preserves and guards incredible testimonies, supports the bond that for centuries has sought to unite the Italian and Polish peoples in a particularly profound way and in many respects.

Sostenibilità ambientale e domini collettivi: una manifestazione virtuosa di sussidiarietà

(10.10.2024)

Abstract

“Civic use”, more recently referred to as “domains” or “collective property”, has ancient roots in the country's economic and social context: several times the Constitutional Court has had occasion to rule on this phenomenon, in relation to regional laws. Thanks to Act 168 of 2017 and the case law of the Constitutional Court, we have moved away from viewing collective properties as an experience to overcome, and have begun to look at it from a different angle: even the recent judgement 152/2014 confirms the close link between collective domains and the environmental objectives that the Republic will have to meet, particularly following the revision of Article 9 of the Constitution in 2022. The perspective is then enriched by the paradigm of subsidiarity, which finds its authentic manifestation in the collective domains.

 

 

 

ALDO ROCCO VITALE

La morte assistita e i trattamenti di sostegno vitale come problemi biogiuridici tra il nominalismo della Corte costituzionale e l’ontologia della realtà (giuridica)

(07.10.2024)

Abstract

The paper critically examines the recent sentence no. 135/2024 of the Constitutional Court on assisted dying and life support treatments. After summarizing the main points of the sentence, the philosophical and biolegal problem of life support treatments: hydration, nutrition and ventilation is examined. We therefore distinguish the different types of health treatments and the consequences of their suspension. Finally, we retrace the strengths and weaknesses of the logical and legal path that the Constitutional Court adopted to reach its decision.

Verso una giustizia costituzionale di “equità”: quali i riflessi di ordine istituzionale?

(17.09.2024)

Abstract

The paper focuses on the tendency, particularly evident especially in the time closest to us, of constitutional jurisprudence to make use of particularly incisive and penetrating decision-making techniques in the sphere usually considered to be the exclusive prerogative of the legislator, with the aim of tempering the rigor of certain normative solutions, thus made more "mild" and expressive of a justice of equity, in view of the optimal satisfaction of the fundamental rights evoked in the field by the cases and, in general, of certain needs widely and intensely felt within the social body. The alteration of the institutional roles that follows, however, causes risks of no small importance here summarily represented.

Il “caso Priolo”: scelta politica vs. bilanciamento in concreto (in margine alla sent. 105/2024)

(12.09.2024)

Abstract

The essay highlights the logical and argumentative hortcomings of the decision of the Constitutional Court no. 105/2024, particularly where it fails to address the protection of the balance struck by the judge between health protection and production needs, favoring the Government's authority to determine which interests should prevail.

Ancora un problematico obiter dictum della Corte in tema di autodichia (brevi notazioni a margine di Corte cost., sent. n. 65 del 2024)

(12.09.2024)

Abstract

The essay examines the ruling no. 65/2024 of the Constitutional Court, highlighting some critical issues surrounding the theoretical foundation of the so-called selfgovernment of parliamentary bodies. In particular, the work briefly highlights the problematic consequences of an obiter dictum that concludes the ruling and that, by separating regulatory autonomy from self-government, ends up comprimising an adequate functional characterization of the regulatory reserve provided by art. 64 of the Constitution.

 

 

 

GIOVANNI COLOCRESE

Il ruolo della delega di funzioni amministrative in materia ambientale: tra indicazioni della Corte costituzionale e ultime tendenze normative (nota a Corte cost. 4 gennaio 2024, n. 2)

(11.09.2024)

Abstract

Sentence No. 2/2024 highlights, once again, the tightening of the scheme of allocation of administrative functions in environmental matters. The decision, therefore, completes the theoretical framework of the operativeness - and, above all, of the relative limits - of the institution of the so-called delegation of administrative functions in environmental matters, allowing the interpreter to deal with recent legislative innovations.

ROBERTO PINARDI

La Corte e il venir meno del vizio di incostituzionalità (a margine di una pronuncia di legittimità costituzionale sopravvenuta)

(02.09.2024)

Abstract

The article examines Constitutional Court ruling no. 140 of 2024, focusing on "supervening constitutional legitimacy" and its application in this case. The Court upheld the payback mechanism for medical devices as reasonable and proportionate, despite concerns about legal certainty and company expectations. The article also notes how a prior ruling (no. 139 of 2024) altered the rule's proportionality, rendering the raised objections unfounded. Additionally, it discusses the diachronic interpretation of the law and timing issues related to the ruling's publication.

 

 

 

CARLO PADULA

Riflessioni su interesse al ricorso e cessazione della materia del contendere nel giudizio in via principale

(02.09.2024)

Abstract

Facing a State challenge to a regional legislative provision already repealed at the time of notification of the appeal, the Court excludes inadmissibility due to lack of interest, since the application of the repealed provision cannot be excluded. Through an examination of the constitutional jurisprudence about interest in the appeal and cessation of the matter of the dispute, the paper verifies how the importance given to the application of the contested law may be consistent with the abstract nature of the direct constitutional challenge, and the need to not overlap the interest in the appeal with the cessation of the matter of the dispute.

 

 

 

ALESSANDRO CANDIDO

Il fine vita tra Stato e Regioni

(02.09.2024)

Abstract

The paper analyses the Ligurian legislative proposal on the end of life, currently under discussion at the Ligurian Regional Council. Given that the Constitution never recognises a person s right to receive a death benefit, as recently reaffirmed by the Constitutional Court in its ruling no. 135 of 18 July 2024, the legislation under consideration appears to be unconstitutional because it infringes on the division of competences between the State and the Regions. In particular, the regional discipline contrasts with the State s reserve in the matter of civil and criminal law (art. 117, paragraph 2, letter l), of the Constitution), with the transversal State competence in the matter of essential levels of services (art. 117, paragraph 2, letter m), of the Constitution); moreover, the discipline of the end of life does not appear to be referable to the matter of protection of health , within which, in any case, the fundamental State principles are absent. Lastly, the principle of regulatory flexibility appears inapplicable.

Inciampi estivi alla garanzia dell’assistenza scolastica per gli alunni con disabilità

(02.09.2024)

Abstract

The short note reacts critically to a recent ruling by the Council of State on the subject of school assistance for students with disabilities, hoping that the proposed interpretative direction will be overcome by the intervention of the Plenary Assembly of the Council of State itself.
