Abstract

Non-opposability is a sanction that came from French law to Iranian law and has taken examples in Iran's law, judicial procedure and legal doctrine. The flow of this sanction is where the rules protecting the rights of third parties, such as the need to register and publish or comply with the form, etc., in creating legal elements such as a contract, are not observed by the persons involved such as the parties to the contract. In Iranian law, this sanction is included among sanctions and legal situations such as nullity, lack of Influence and Mora’a and it raises the question that how efficient are these sanctions and legal situations for non-observance of the rules protecting the rights of third parties compared to non-opposability?

Since efficiency is a basic concept in economics, which has several criteria for its evaluation, this research, using the efficiency evaluation criteria in economics, describes and analyzes the non-opposability from an economic point of view and in comparison with other sanctions and legal situations in Iran's laws.

The result of this research is the economic efficiency of the non-opposability, among other sanctions in Iranian law, from the point of view of Pareto and Kaldor-Hicks efficiency criteria, relation to the situation of non-compliance with the rules protecting the rights of third parties.
