Punishment for the ingratitude of the constitutional terms - An analytical study-

Abstract

This study aims to demonstrate the provisions of compensation for intangible harmful acts in the Jordanian civil law, due to the importance of compensation for the aggrieved person, through the analysis of the legal texts governing the rules of responsibility for the harmful act mentioned in the Jordanian civil law. Since these provisions are not explicit with regard to the right of the aggrieved person to claim compensation for moral harmful resulting from physical injuries. The study dealt with the issue of compensation for morally harmful acts through two chapters: the first is about the guaranteed harm and distinguishing it from the absolute harm, and the second is about compensation for the harm in the field of responsibility for the harmful act. Finally, we reached a set of results, the most important of which are: Compensation for moral Harms in the Jordanian civil law includes independent moral Harms, and does not include moral Harms directly caused to the victim because of physical injuries. The study also came out with some recommendations, including the necessity of amending the Provisions regulating responsibility for the harmful act, in a way that expands the scope of compensation for moral harm, whether for the directly aggrieved person or for relatives after his death.
