Explanation of Article 121

This article addresses a simple legal presumption related to the element of causation in liability for harmful acts. It stipulates that if the harmful act is direct, the damage is considered to have arisen because of it, unless evidence to the contrary is provided. This relieves the injured party from the burden of proving causation in cases where the damage is a direct result of the act.

Article 121

If a harmful act is attributed to its perpetrator, the harm shall be deemed to have resulted from such act, unless proven otherwise.
