| 释义 | 損失的可預見程度 The test used to determine whether the loss suffered by a plaintiff is too remote to make the defendant pay compensation. Once duty of care, breach and causation have been established, the plaintiff has to established that the loss flowing from the tort is not too remote; and the test for remoteness is foreseeability: Overseas Tankship (UK) Ltd v Morts Dock & Engineering Co Ltd (The Wagon Mound - No 1) [1961] AC 388. Loss arising from a breach of contract will only be foreseeable if it is a loss which occurs in the usual or normal course of things as a result of the breach, or, if it is unusual loss, the potential for it was made known to the defendant at the time the contract was made: Hadley v Baxendale [1843-1860] All ER Rep 461, (1854) 9 Exch 341, 156 ER 145. See also Hadley v Baxendale, rule in; Heads of damage; Loss; Loss of bargain; Loss of a chance; Loss of consortium; Total loss. 用以決定原告人所蒙受的損失是否太間接，而未能要求被告人作出賠償的驗證。一旦已確立謹慎責任、違反事項及因果關係，原告人須證明因侵權行為而引致的損失並非太間接；而證明是否間接的驗證是可預見程度：Overseas Tankship (UK) Ltd v Morts Dock & Engineering Co Ltd (The Wagon Mound (No 1) [1961] AC 388。僅在因違約而產生的損失是由於在違約而導致的慣常或正常的事實過程的情況下發生，才屬於可預見的損失；或如屬不尋常損失，則會考慮在締約時是否已向被告人告知：Hadley v Baxendale (1854) 9 Exch 341, 156 ER 145。另見 Hadley v Baxendale, rule in; Heads of damage; Loss; Loss of bargain; Loss of a chance; Loss of consortium; Total loss。 |
