Explanation of Article 127
This article addresses the ruling on the multiplicity of parties responsible for a harmful act. It stipulates that if there are multiple parties responsible for causing a harmful act, they are jointly liable for compensating for the damage. The court determines each party's share of the compensation based on the severity of the fault and the extent of their contribution to causing the damage. If this is not possible, the responsibility is shared equally among them. These provisions apply to cases where two persons contribute to causing the damage without one party's fault completely overshadowing the other's fault.
