Il existe une norme stricte pour déterminer qu’une allégation est faite de mauvaise foi. Il ne s’agit pas simplement d’un cas où une personne a fait preuve de mauvais jugement ou de négligence. Cela sous-entend la perpétration consciente d’un tort à des fins malhonnêtes ou en raison d’une supercherie morale de la part de la partie plaignante. Elle suppose une intention d’induire en erreur. 2, record 1, French, - de%20mauvaise%20foi

The term "bad faith" is not simply bad judgment or negligence, but rather it implies the conscious doing of a wrong because of dishonest purpose or moral obliquity; it is different from the negative idea of negligence in that it contemplates a state of mind affirmatively operating with furtive design or ill will. (Black's, 6th ed., 1990, p. 139). 1, record 2, English, - bad%20faith
