Restatement of the Law,Second,Conflict of Laws

 

美國第二次沖突法重述

 (1971年)

Chapter 1 Introduction 

第一章 序言

§1 Reason for the Rules of Conflict of Laws   第一條 沖突法規則的原因
 The world is composed of territorial states having separate and differing systems of law.Events and transactions occur,and issues arise,that may have a significant relationship to more than one state,making necessary a special body of rules and methods for their ordering and resolution. 世界由擁有領土的國家組成,其法律制度彼此獨立,相互差異。事件和交易的發生,問題的產生,可能與一個以上的國家具有重要聯系,因而需要有一整套特別的規則和方法加以調整和確定。
§2 Subject Matter of Conflict of Laws   第二條 沖突法的主旨
 Conflict of Laws is that part of the law of each state which determines what effect is given to the fact that the case may have a significant relationship to more than one state. 沖突法是各國法律的一部分,它確定對有關事件可能與一個以上的國家具有重要聯系這一事實賦予何種效力。
§3 State Defined   第三條 “州”的定義
 As used in the Restatement of this Subject,the word“state”denotes a territorial unit with a distinct general body of law. 在本沖突法重述中,“州”一詞指具有獨立法律體系的區域。
§4 Law Defined   第四條 法律的定義
 (1)As used in the Restatement of this Subject,the“local law”of a state is the body of standards,principles and rules,exclusive of its rules of Conflict of Laws,which the courts of that state apply in the decision of controversies brought before them. 1.在本沖突法重述中,州的“本地法”,指除該州沖突法規則以外的、該州法院用以解決所受理的爭議的一整套標准、原則和規則。
 (2)As used in the Restatement of this Subject,the“law”of a state is that state's local law,together with its rules 2.在本沖突法重述中,州的“法律”指該州的本地法及該州的沖突法規則。
§5 Nature and Development of Conflict of Laws   第五條 國際私法之性質及發展
 The rules of Conflict of Laws,and especially the rules of choice of law,are largely decisional and,to the extent that this is so,are as open to reexamination as any other common law rules.The process of formulation and reexamination of these rules requires consideration not only of the specific policies of the relevant local law rules but also of the general policies relating to multistate occurrences. 國際私法規則,特別是法律選擇規則,大部分為判例法,因此之故,與其他普通法規則相同,均不斷接受考驗,此種規則之發展與考驗過程中,所需要考慮的,不僅是相關實體法規則中特殊政策,同時包括涉及多數法域事件之一般政策。
§6 Choice—Of—Law Principles   第六條 法律選擇的原則
 (1)A court,subject to constitutional restrictions,will follow a statutory directive of its own state on choice of law. 1.法院,除受憲法約束外,應遵循本州關于法律選擇的立法規定。
 (2)When there is no such directive,the factors relevant to the choice of the applicable rule of law include 2.在無此種規定時,與適用于選擇法律的規則有關的因素包括:
 (a)the needs of the interstate and international systems, (1)州際及國際體制的需要;
 (b)the relevant policies of the forum. (2)法院地的相關政策;
 (c)the relevant policies of other interested states and the relative interests of those states in the determination of the particular issue, (3)其他利害關系州的相關政策以及在決定特定問題時這些州的有關利益;
 (d)the protection of justified expectations, (4)對正當期望的保護;
 (e)the basic policies underlying the particular field of law, (5)特定領域法律所依據的政策;
 (f)certainty,predictability and uniformity of result,and (6)結果的確定性、可預見性和一致性,以及
 (g)ease in the determination and application of the law to be applied. (7)將予適用的法律易于確定和適用。
§7 Characterization   第七條 識別
 (1)The classification and interpretation of legal concepts and terms involve questions of characterization,as the term is used in the Restatement of this Subject. 1.本沖突法重述中,識別問題涉及對法律概念和術語的分類和解釋。
 (2)The classification and interpretation of Conflict of Laws concepts and terms are determined in accordance with the law of the forum,except as stated in§8. 2.對沖突法概念和術語的分類和解釋,除第八條的規定外,依法院地法。
 (3)The classification and interpretation of local law concepts and terms are determined in accordance with the law that governs the issue involved. 3.對本地法概念和術語的分類和解釋依支配有關問題的法律。
§8 Applicability of Choice—Of—Law Rules of Another State (Renvoi)   第八條 另一州法律選擇規則的可適用性(反致)
 (1)When directed by its own choice—of—law rule to apply“the law”of another state,the forum applies the local law of the other state,except as stated in Subsections(2)and(3). 1.除第2款、第3款的規定外,在本州的法律選擇規則指明應適用另一州的“法律”時,法院適用該另一州的本地法。
 (2)When the objective of the particular choice—of—law rule is that the forum reach the same result on the very facts involved as would the courts of another state,the forum will apply the choice—of—law rules of the other state,subject to considerations of practicability and feasibility. 2.如特定法律選擇規則的目的在于使法院就案件事實得出的結果與另一州法院審理該案時得出的結果相一致,則法院可適用該另一州的法律選擇規則,但須考慮實際可行性。
 (3)When the state of the forum has no substantial relationship to the particular issue or the parties and the courts of all interested states would concur in selecting the local law rule applicable to this issue,the forum will usually apply this rule. 3.如法院地州與特定問題或當事人無實質聯系,而各利害關系州的法院會一致選擇某個適用于該問題的本地法規則時,法院通常將適用該規則。
§9 Limitations on Choice of Law   第九條 法律選擇的限制
 A court may not apply the local law of its own state to determine a particular issue unless such application of this law would be reasonable in the light of the relationship of the state and of other states to the person,thing or occurrence involved. 法院在決定特定問題時,可不適用本州的本地法。除非就本州和其他州與有關的人、物或事件的聯系而言,適用該法是合理的。
§10 Interstate and International Conflict of Laws   第十條 州際和國際沖突法
 The rules in the Restatement of this Subject apply to cases with elements in one or more States of the United States and are generally applicable to cases with elements in one or more foreign nations.There may,however,be factors in a particular international case which call for a result different from that which would be reached in an interstate case. 本沖突法重述中的規則適用于涉及美國一州或多州因素的案件,並基本上適用于涉及一個或多個外國因素的案件。但是,在特定的國家案件中,可能有些因素要求其結果區別于在州際案件中會得出的結果。
