单词 | Bare possibility |
释义 | 單純可能性 A possibility of damage insufficient to ground liability in negligence. A defendant is only liable for damage that is reasonably foreseeable and not too remote from the defendant’s negligent act or omission. Damage is not too remote if there is a ‘real risk’ of it occurring: Overseas Tankship (UK) Ltd v Morts Dock & Engineering Co Ltd (The Wagon Mound) [1961] AC 388, 1 All ER 404 (PC). See also Real risk; Reasonable foreseeability; Remoteness. 不足以在疏忽法產生法律責任的損害可能性。被告只須對可合理預見及由被告的疏忽行為或不行為產生但不太間接的損害負上法律責任。如存在導致損害的「實在的危險」,則該損害不算太間接﹕Overseas Tankship (UK) Ltd v Morts Dock & Engineering Co Ltd (The Wagon Mound) [1961] AC 388, 1 All ER 404 (樞密院)。另見 Real risk; Reasonable foreseeability; Remoteness。 |
