释义 不當死亡
The death of a person caused by a wrongful act, neglect or default, which would have entitled the person injured to maintain an action and recover damages in respect thereof. An action for damages may be brought for the benefit of the dependants of the deceased under the Fatal Accidents Ordinance (Cap 22) against the person who would have been liable if death had not ensued, notwithstanding the death of the injured person: Fatal Accidents Ordinance (Cap 22) s 3. ‘Wrongful act, neglect or default’ includes a breach of contract: Grein v Imperial Airways Ltd [1937] 1 KB 50, [1936] 2 All ER 1258 (CA).

倘若某人的死亡是任何錯誤作為、疏忽或過失導致的,而死者(若非死去)原可有權就此等錯誤作為、疏忽或過失提出訴訟和追討損害賠償,則根據《致命意外條例》(第22章),可為死者的受養人的利益,就該損害向原須對死者承擔損害賠償之責的人,提出索償的訴訟:《致命意外條例》(第22章)第3條。「錯誤作為、疏忽或過失」包括違反合約:Grein v Imperial Airways Ltd [1937] 1 KB 50, [1936] 2 All ER 1258(英國上訴法院)。另見 Injury; Negligence。
