Explanation of Article 128

This article addresses the ruling on the injured party's participation in the fault that caused or increased the damage. It stipulates that if the injured party's fault contributed to causing the damage or increasing it, their right or part of their right to compensation is forfeited, in proportion to their participation in it. This applies when the injured party's fault causes or increases the damage, or when they fail to take the necessary measures to prevent or mitigate the damage.
