CONT

Bien que la magistrature dise qu'elle n'aime pas la mode actuelle d'alléguer la fraude civile, il continue d'y avoir des avantages significatifs à plaider le tort de tromperie comme argument subsidiaire ou concurrent de celui de déclaration inexacte faite par négligence, pour établir la responsabilité.
