Описание:
Res Ipsa Loquitur—a principle that allows negligence to be inferred from the very nature of the act, without other evidence.
📝 We break down:
• The 1996 Supreme Court case where a mop left in a patient's abdomen during surgery led to civil liability.
• The clarification in the Jacob Mathew (2005) case, where the Supreme Court held that Res Ipsa Loquitur is not sufficient for criminal liability.
⚖️ Key Point:
Res Ipsa Loquitur is a rule of evidence, helpful in civil negligence cases, but not a substitute for proof in criminal proceedings. In criminal cases, the burden lies with the prosecution to prove negligence beyond reasonable doubt.
