This contribution analyses the systematics and wording of the current Slovak Private International Law Act, which was adopted in 1963 and, with some changes, remains in force. For instance, the linguistic interpretation of the Act raises several problems in practice, to which case law responds with an ad hoc approach rather than on a systematic basis. This paper seeks to analyse the current changes the legislative process is bringing to streamline legislation, and draws attention to other shortcomings that need to be addressed. The paper considers the necessary comprehensive recodification of the Slovak Private International Law Act. |
