This situation is common in connection with freshwater production from sea water (desalination), which produces a brine waste stream, usually discharged into sea water.

Marknadsföring i media bidrar till att en offentlig person skapas, vilket ofta grundar sig i ett ko

Denna uppsats har via en rättsdogmatisk metod undersökt gällande rätt avseende nödvärn och nödvärnsexcess vid överfall. Den faktiska rättstillämpningen i underrätterna har inte berörts. Rätten till försvarsvåld gentemot brottsliga angrepp tillkommer dels den angripne, dels envar som befinner sig på platsen för angreppet. Denna rätt regleras i nödvärnsstadgandet i 24 kap. 1 § BrB.
