Jakarta (ANTARA) – Indonesia needs the Private International Law (UU HPI) considering that business contracts between Indonesian citizens and foreigners have been increasing due to globalization, Supreme Court Judge Haswandi has said.
“We, as practitioners, expect the existence of the HPI Law to face the current globalization,” he said here on Monday.

Cars cruised through Montreal streets on Saturday denouncing Quebec’s French-language law known as Bill 96.
“We’re doing it because we have to save English Montreal,” said organizer Mario Napolitano. “Bill 96 will destroy the city.”
Napolitano is part of the group Bridging Ethnic Communities, a non-profit organization that “unites Quebecers of all languages, ages, and cultures while opposing discrimination, racism and violation of freedoms imposed by the provincial government through its implementation of unreasonable language laws,” according to its website.
Napolitano said the motorcade would respect traffic laws and that the protests would be peaceful.
Bill 96 is being challenged…
A Canadian court has recently ruled that a thumbs-up emoji (👍🏽) sent as a text message can be interpreted as consent to a contract – in what is being seen as an unusual case, with courts deciding on the meaning of emojis that are now liberally used in daily online conversations.
The case here involved people from two companies, South West Terminal Ltd. (SWT) and Achter Land & Cattle Ltd., who had done business with each other in the past. SWT sued Achter, a farming company, for a breach of contract and an alleged failure on their part to deliver…

Climbing caribou numbers in northeastern British Columbia prove that collaborations between Indigenous and colonial governments can reverse decades-long declines, but focus needs to shift to culturally meaningful recovery targets, a consortium of researchers and community members say in a new paper published this week in Science.
UBC Okanagan’s Dr. Clayton Lamb and West Moberly First Nation Chief Roland Willson co-lead the paper, Braiding Indigenous Rights and Endangered Species Lawalongside nine others for the influential journal.

If the property is in your name only, it is sometimes the belief that the other person should be the one to leave. However there are circumstances, in particular if you have children, where you may be wise to think differently.
In instances where, for example, the other parent has no means to pay rent to live elsewhere, effectively leaving them unable to put a roof over the head of their child, then a Court would look less favorable on you. This is because in family law, where children are involved, the ‘best interests of the child’ is to be…
Lists originally slated for release on April 18
(Reuters) – US News & World Report has delayed the release of its law school and medical school rankings for a second time, without a new publication date.
In a Wednesday message posted to its website, US News said it is working to address a large volume of inquiries from schools and will publish the new law and medical rankings “when this work has been completed.”
The rankings were initially slated to publish April 18, then pushed back to April 25 due to an “unprecedented” number of questions from schools. US News…
