contributory negligence / comparative fault / comparative negligence Explanation: What Is Contributory Negligence? Contributory negligence is the plaintiff's failure to exercise reasonable care for their safety. A plaintiff is the party who brings a case against another party (the defendant). Contributory negligence can bar recovery or reduce the amount of compensation a plaintiff receives if their actions increased the likelihood that an incident occurred. Often, defendants use contributory negligence as a defense - https://www.investopedia.com/terms/c/contributory-negligence... ---- In some common law jurisdictions, contributory negligence is a defense to a tort claim based on negligence. If it is available, the defense completely bars plaintiffs from any recovery if they contribute to their own injury through their own negligence. Because the contributory negligence doctrine can lead to harsh results, many common law jurisdictions have abolished it in favor of a "comparative fault" or "comparative negligence" approach. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contributory_negligence |
