Unreferenced date December 2007 Conflict of laws In the conflict of laws , the validity of a contract with one or more foreign law elements will be decided by reference to the so called proper law of the contract. History Until the middle of the 19th century, the court s applied the lex loci contractus or the law of the place where the contract was made to decide whether the given contract was valid. The apparent advantage of this approach was that the rule was easy to apply with certain and predictable outcomes. Unfortunately, it was also open to abuse, e.g. the place could be selected fraud ulently to validate an otherwise invalid contract it might lead to the application of laws with no real connection with the transaction itself, say, because the parties signed the agreement while on holiday or it might have been difficult to decide where the contract was made, e.g. because it was negotiated and signed on a railway journey through several Jurisdiction area states . To avoid these difficulties, some courts proposed applying the lex loci solutionis or the law of the place of performance of the contract . This produced difficulties in cases where the contract required each party to perform its obligations in a different country, or where the place of performance was dictated by later circumstances. However, as the public policy law public policies driven by the theory of freedom of contract evolved, the proper law Doctrine of Proper Law emerged.

Conflict of laws In conflict of laws , the choice of law rules for tort are intended to select the lex causae by which to determine the nature and scope of the judicial remedy to claim damages for loss or damage suffered. History The first attempts to establish a coherent choice of law rule for tort cases involving a foreign law element varied between favouring the lex fori i.e. the law of the court and the lex loci delicti commissi i.e. the law of the place where the tort was committed . The public policy law public policy of territorial sovereignty was always the principal consideration. Hence, the forum courts claimed their right to apply their laws to determine whether any lawsuit initiated in their jurisdiction area jurisdiction allowed a remedy. Equally, it is the commission of a tort that vests a right of action in a claimant and therefore, it should always be for the law of the place where that right was created to determine the extent of any remedy flowing from it. In the end, a compromise emerged where the lex loci delicti was the first point of reference but courts retained a discretion to substitute the lex fori if the foreign law was deemed unfair and other practical considerations pointed to the application of forum law. In the U.S., see the New York decision in Babcock v. Jackson , 191 N.E.2d 279 N.Y. 1963 for a discussion of the issues.
