Record 3 2015-08-24

English

Subject field(s)
  • Rules of Court
  • Legal Actions
DEF

A plea, which the defendant has the burden of establishing at trial, by which he admits the truth of material facts stated in the plaintiff’s statement of claim, but destroys the legal effect of these admissions by pleading other facts, which, if true, constitute a defence.

CONT

As the early common law attached liability to trespass on mere proof of direct causation, it became necessary, after the later admission of exculpatory considerations, for the defendant to "justify" or "excuse" his conduct by specially pleading and proving the circumstances which destroyed its actionable quality. Thus "justification" became an affirmative defence.

OBS

In a statement of defence.
