Denna framställning utgör en rättslig analys av Gällivare tingrätts dom angående Girjas sameby. Denna dom är i skrivande stund inte slutligt avgjord utan har överklagats till hovrätten. Tingsrätten slöt sig till att rennäringslagen stred mot egendomsskyddet i regeringsformen och lämnade denna lag utan avseende. Domstolen dömde till samebyns fördel i målet med stöd av rättsinstitutet urminnes hävd.This essay accounts for a legal analysis of a case that has been ruled by a Swedish district court (Girjasdomen).

En av de mer grundläggande strukturerna i världens rättssystem, uppdelningen mellan rättssubjekt och rättsobjekt, har de senaste 20 åren mött utmaningar från djurrättsförespråkare. Genom att sätta djurs bristande rättsliga skydd i relation till deras juridiska status har man argumenterat för att djurs rättsliga skydd aldrig kan tillgodoses på ett tillfredställande vis så länge de ses som rättsligaOne of the more fundamental structures of the world's legal systems, the division between legal persons and legal objects, has over the last 20 years faced challenges from animal rights advocates.

This thesis examines the
