Сложности выбора

Законодательство предусматривает возможность сторон выбрать для рассмотрения споров между собой арбитражный суд первой инстанции, но при этом АПК РФ установлен прямой запрет на изменение родовой или исключительной подсудности. Казалось бы, выбор суда максимально прост. Если есть договоренность сторон о передаче спора на рассмотрение того или иного суда и это соглашение не нарушает родовую и исключительную подсудность, то истец подает заявление в выбранный суд. Однако этот очевидный вывод на практике долгое время не принимался судами. Недавнее Определение ВС РФ от 25.05.2017 № 305-ЭС16-20255 переломило ситуацию.

О налоговых проблемах компаний с иностранным элементом

Стратегия государства по "наведению порядка" в области международного налогового планирования занимает все более значимое место как в области нормотворчества, так и в области правоприменения. Если в качестве основных направлений налоговой политики ограничение использования международных схем оптимизации формально существует с 2010 года, а ряд точечных норм, в частности правила тонкой капитализации, существует с 2002 года, то реальный прогресс в этом направлении стал проявляться лишь в последние годы. Что, впрочем, полностью соответствует мировой практике и стадиям разработки и применения плана BEPS.

In the spring of 2016, widescale work ended that was performed on reforming legislation that addressed personal data in the framework of the European Union.

Exclusion from the register of unfair suppliers: analysis of judicial practice

In the current economic situation, many companies are interested in participating in state procurement contests and in procurement tenders of individual legal entities, thus ensuring a certain level of economic stability for themselves. However, the opportunities for participation in such tenders are significantly reduced if company’s name ends up being listed in one of the registers of unscrupulous suppliers, since in their tender documentation, most customers include a requirement that participants in the tender should not be listed in the Register.
