<\/span>Introduction<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In jurisprudence, liability denotes the legal responsibility of a person for an act or omission that violates a legal duty. When a person commits a wrongful act, causes harm, or fails to perform a legal obligation, the law may impose liability. The consequences may take the form of punishment, compensation, restitution, or other remedies. The nature and extent of liability depend on the character of the wrong and the applicable branch of law.<\/p>
