Transfer of Contract in Hungarian Law

Legal Concerns and Inconsistencies in the Judicial Practice


g) Review of the rules on the transfer of contracts in 2016

The Civil Code’s rule on the transfer of contracts was criticised immediately after its promulgation.1 The criticisms were mainly directed against Section 6:208 (3) of the Civil Code, which stated that: “The assignment of a contract shall terminate the securities of the contract. With the consent of the pledgee, the new pledge takes the place of the original pledge.’

Péter Gárdos’s book delves into the realm of contract transfer within the context of the Hungarian Civil Code. With a keen eye on legal evolution, Gárdos traces the genesis of the Code's provisions, revealing surprising complexities that emerged despite prior court recognition of the transfer of contract practices. In response to ensuing uncertainties, the legislator enacted revisions and supplementary regulations, which paradoxically engendered further ambiguity.

Gárdos's comprehensive analysis navigates through this legal landscape, offering invaluable insights into the legislative rationale behind the Hungarian Civil Code and subsequent developments in legislation and case law. Building on the laws of various European countries and international instruments, the author not only interprets existing laws but also ventures into comparative studies across various European jurisdictions, enriching the discourse on contract law harmonization.
