法律英语词汇“Novus actus interveniens”的翻译、意思、用法、释义-法律词典

单词	Novus actus interveniens
释义	新的介入行為 Lat – a new act intervening. Criminal law - A person is not liable for the death of another if an intervening act has broken the chain of causation and can be considered to be the sole cause of death: National Rivers Authority v Alfred McAlpine Homes East Ltd [1994] 4 All ER 286 (DC). Where there is an intervening cause of death, it must be so significant and substantial so as to break the chain of causation before the original act can no longer be regarded as causing the death of the deceased: R v Mitchell [1983] 2 All ER 427, 76 Cr App Rep 293 (CA). See also Foresight of consequences; Natural consequence. Tort - An independent, intervening act which breaks the chain of causation between a defendant’s negligence and a plaintiff’s injury. The defence that the damage suffered by the plaintiff was due not to a breach of duty by the defendant but to some independent act of a third person which the defendant could not reasonably foresee, may be available in an action based on breach of statutory duty; Lo Ngau v Dodwell Shipping Ltd [1977-1979] HKC 245; Leung Sin Fai v Perfect World Co Ltd [1998] 2 HKLRD 115. Where the defendant disputes the plaintiff’s story claiming that the plaintiff’s injuries or damages result from a new cause or that there was an novus actus interveniens, the onus is on him to prove that: Lo Ngau v Dodwell Shipping Ltd [1977-1979] HKC 245; Wong Hok Chung v Chow Wai Kam [1974] HKLR 506. See also Causation; Contributing cause; Intervening act; Remoteness. 拉丁語 ─ 一項新的干預行為。刑事法 - 如某介入行為破壞因果關係而被視為另一人死亡的唯一原因，則某人不須就另一人的死亡負上任何法律責任：National Rivers Authority v Alfred McAlpine Homes East Ltd [1994] 4 All ER 286（英國地方法院）。當中如果有死亡的介入因由，該因由須為重大而實質至可破壞因果關係的程度，而先前的原有行為不再被視為構成死者死亡的原因：R v Mitchell [1983] 2 All ER 427, 76 Cr App Rep 293 (芵國上訴法院)。另見 Foresight of consequences; Natural consequence。侵權法 - 任何破壞被告人的疏忽與原訴人受傷之間的因果關係的獨立介入行為。原訴人所蒙受的傷害不是因被告人不履行責任而引起而是因被告人不能合理地預見的第三者獨立行為而引起的抗辯理由，可根據不履行法定責任的行為而適用：Lo Ngau v Dodwell Shipping Ltd [1977-1979] HKC 245; Leung Sin Fai v Perfect World Co Ltd [1998] 2 HKLRD 115。當被告人對原訴人受傷的申索有爭議，認為其受傷是因新的因由或新的介入行為而引致，舉證責任即在被告人身上：Lo Ngau v Dodwell Shipping Ltd [1977-1979] HKC 245；Wong Hok Chung v Chow Wai Kam [1974] HKLR 506。另見 Causation; Contributing cause; Intervening act; Remoteness。
