Стаття присвячена дослідженню формування та розвитку інституту експерта з питань права, а також особливості його законодавчого регулювання та функціонування в праві держав романо-германської правової сім’ї, зокрема в таких державах, як Франція, Німеччина, Польща, Бразилія та Мексика. Встановлено, що нині amicus curiae – це суб’єкт, котрий не бере участі в судовому процесі в якості сторони, однак володіє виключними юридичними або професійними знаннями з важливої теми, яка має місце в конкретній справі, та пропонує увазі суду певну думку, позицію з того чи іншого питання, що сприяє обґрунтуванню судом своїх мотивів у прийнятті рішення в конкретній, як правило, складній правовій ситуації.

According to  certainty in  the Act of  Tax Court, Article1, clause  (5),  tax  dispute   refers to the legal dispute arising in the  taxation  affairs between the  tax payer or the  body  responsible for the  tax with   the government   executives  ( Directorate General of Tax) as the consequence of   the issue of  the decree for the  appeal  to the Tax  Court in accordance with the  tax Act, including the  charge  against the  execution of collection   in accordance with the  Act of Tax Collection by force. The  formation of Tax Court is  designed by  the Executives, in this case, the  Department of Finance, specifically  the Directorate   General  of Tax  which has the right to issue  law  more technical about  tax accord to Article 14,  letter A,  President Decree  no. 44  year 1974,  concerning the  basic  organization of the Department.  Based on  it,  it  is clear that  in addition to execute the government  rules and policy,  this body  has to execute judicial   rules and policy.

In 2002 the South African Constitutional Court rejected the decriminalisation of sex work and for many years the judgment has constricted further debate on the topic. In 2013 organisations such as the Commission for Gender Equality have again publicly committed themselves toward lobbying for the decriminalisation of sex work. The renewed debate has necessitated a reconsideration of the Court’s decision in S v Jordan and this article focuses on the organisations that participated as amicus curiae in the matter. The discussion highlights the importance of organisational participation in litigation and how this participation could provide the context in which to consider future debates on the topic.

The legal effort of the taxpayer to seek justice becomes disconnected with the provisions of Article 33 paragraph (1) and Article 77 paragraph (1) of Law no. 14 year 2002 stating that the decision of the Tax Court is the final decision in examining and resolving tax disputes, so that no appeal or cassation can be appealed. This resulted in reduced taxpayers' right to seek justice. Allowable legal action is to conduct a Review, and this effort is extraordinary
