| 单词 | lex aquilia |
| 释义 | lex aquilia lex aquilia an ancient Roman statute, probably passed in the 3rd cen- tury BC. Two provisions of it, the first and third chapters, formed the essence of the delict known as damnum injuria datum, 'loss wrongful- ly caused'. The third chapter provided that if a man caused loss to another by burning, breaking or destroying the defendant's proper- ty he would be liable for the loss caused. The Digest (see CORPUS JURIS CIVILIS) is rich in discussion of what cases would or would not attract liability. The focus on the notion of injuria is the origin of the require- ment for fault in the law of DELICT in Scotland and the law of TORT in England. Originally it meant simply without justification but even- tually it was developed to mean FAULT. |
