handle is hein.journals/uprblj4 and id is 1 raw text is: I. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Editorial Board would like to thank all the authors whose works compose the first number of this fourth volume of the University of Puerto Rico Business Law Journal. This number includes our first term analysis, focused on labor law jurisprudence from the United States Supreme Court, The First Circuit and the District Court for the District of Puerto Rico; a discussion of the various applicable methods to interpret the relevant statutes in order to determine the location of national banks for purposes of establishing diversity of citizenship; an analysis of the changes in Puerto Rico's flow-through taxation and the importance of choice of entity strategies as well as its consequences; a historical analysis on the feudal origins of public utilities in the European Union; and, finally, a discussion about the legal nature of bank loans in Puerto Rico's civil law system that defends its mercantile nature. I would like to thank the members of our Editorial Staff for all of their excellent work during the semester, specially those editors who helped the Editorial Board during the final steps for publication: Belmarie Rivera, Pedro Garcia, Andr~s Monserrate, Cristina Tamayo and Roberto Gonzalez. I would also like to thank H~ctor Orejuela, our Senior Articles Editor, for his technical support during these final stages. The Business Law Journal would like to thank our special guests and speakers: Professor Jes6s Jordano Fraga from the University of Sevilla for his lecture during the Second Conference of Law and Natural Disasters; and Honorable Judge Edward A. Godoy, Professor Jos6 L. Nieto and Professor Maria de los Angeles Gonzalez for sharing their knowledge about security interests (garantfas mobiliarias) in the bankruptcy process. The Editorial Board would also like to thank Professor Antonio Garcia Padilla, Dean Emeritus of the University of Puerto Rico Law School, for his support and advice to make this endeavor possible; as well as Yarot Lafontaine and Felipe Rodriguez Lafontaine, two of our past Editors in Chief for their help in maintaining this project close to its original purposes. With our mission in mind, the Business LawJournal will continue to be a forum for academics, practitioners and students to incite academic and professional discussions about business law topics while working towards becoming a more useful instrument for practitioners and students by providing tools such as our labor jurisprudence term analysis. With the utmost gratitude, Paola Medina Prieto, CPA Editor in Chief, Volume 4 U.P.R. Business Law Journal
