English term

choice of law principles that might apply

English to Polish Law/Patents Law: Contract(s) trademark agreement
Przepraszam, że trochę długie wyrażenie, ale naprawdę mocno się zastanawiam, co z nim zrobić. Pojawia się w umowie o znak handlowy w poniższym zapisie:

Regardless of any conflict of law or choice of law principles that might otherwise apply, the Parties agree that this Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

"Conflict of law" jest dla mnie jasny, tak samo jak i reszta zdania, ale nie wiem, co może oznaczać "choice of law principles that might otherwise apply". Będę bardzo wdzięczna za nakierowanie mnie na właściwy trop!

"Regardless of any conflict of law or choice of law principles that might otherwise apply, the Parties agree that this Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware."

Yes. To be precise, it expressly excludes other jurisdictions and conflict of law principles which might otherwise apply, including foreign ones, and indicates that the only governing law of the Agreement shall be that of the State of Delaware.

I think this regards the laws of different jurisdictions, i.e., wybór systemu prawnego/jurysdykcja mająca zastosowanie, itp..

Oftentimes, the governing law provision will also include the phrase, “without regard to conflict of law principles”. But, what does this phrase mean? There are two primary reasons for the exclusion of the principles of conflict of laws in a governing law provision.

First, express exclusion of conflict of laws principles prohibits a future argument from either party that conflict of laws principles require a court to apply the laws of a jurisdiction other than the express jurisdiction of governing law. Second, the express exclusion of conflict of laws principles is useful in avoiding a renvoi – which is where a court will refer to the laws of a foreign jurisdiction in a matter involving a conflict of law. In some instances, a renvoi may result in the intention of the parties being lost. Exclusion of conflict of laws principles clarifies that the parties intend that the governing law expressly indicated in the contract is to apply.

The phrase “without regard to conflict of law principles” may be glossed over by a contracting party. Although, however cursory this phrase may appear to be, it is an important inclusion in a contract to avoid the imposition of the laws of another jurisdiction despite the intention of the contracting parties.

Reference:

conflict of laws

Choice of law is a procedural stage in the litigation of a case involving the conflict of laws when it is necessary to reconcile the differences between the laws of different legal jurisdictions, such as sovereign states, federated states (as in the US), or provinces. The outcome of this process is potentially to require the courts of one jurisdiction to apply the law of a different jurisdiction in lawsuits arising from, say, family law, tort or contract. The law which is applied is sometimes referred to as the "proper law." Dépeçage is an issue within choice of law.

Conflict of laws is a set of rules of procedural law which determine the legal system and the law of jurisdiction applying to a given legal dispute. In civil law, lawyers and legal scholars refer to conflict of laws as private international law. They typically apply when a legal dispute has a “foreign” element.
