Description This paper concerns the definition of legal objects in the Czech New Civil Code, especially the concept of the „thing in the legal sense“. The author compares the concept of legal objects in selected civil-law jurisdictions and analyzes things as objects of property rights. The author concludes that selected intangible assets will not be considered as things in legal sense in the New Civil Code, because they are objects of personality rights. Those intangible assets which are solely objects of property rights will be considered as non-corporeal things, however they will not be considered as objects of property in stricto sensu, because this relates only to corporeal objects.
