A. has a scope of application, and in some industries is completely excluded.

A. widespread in civil law, as civil rights and obligations arise from the grounds provided by law. In the absence of a law governing disputed relations, the court applies a law regulating similar relations.

A. is possible in labor and administrative law.

Judicial practice recognizes A. in cases where there is a material norm, but there are not sufficient indications about the procedure for resolving the case.
