Secondary Liability Map 次要责任图
- D’s enrichment is unjust if P enriched D by discharging a liability of D to another person X under legal compulsion by X
如果 P 通过履行 D 对另一人 X 的法律义务而使 D 获得不正当得利,且该履行具有 X 的法律强制性
- P & D are under a common or concurrent liability but:
P 和 D 承担共同或并行的责任,但:
- P’s liability is secondary to D → recoupment (common law)
P 的责任是次要于 D → 追偿(普通法) - D should bear part of that liability
D 应当承担部分责任
- If liability is for debt → contribution (common law)
如果责任是针对债务 → 分摊 (普通法) - If liability is for compensation → contribution (Civil Liability (Contribution) Ordinance (Cap 377)
如果责任是针对赔偿 → 分摊 (《民事责任(分摊)条例》(第 377 章)
- If the liability in (1) is a secured liability, P gains a right to be subrogated to the discharged security [in P’s own name] (i.e. subrogation to an extinguished right) where:-
如果(1)中的责任是有担保的责任,则 P 有权代位清偿已解除的担保[以 P 自己的名义](即代位清偿已消灭的权利),条件是:-
- D’s enrichment is the discharge of liability of D to X (i.e. typical surety case)
D 获得的利益是 D 对 X 的责任的解除(即典型的担保人情况) - Liability of D1 (higher ranking chargee) to X has been discharged at P’s expense, D2 (lower ranking charge) has been enriched (i.e. BFC)
D1(顺位在先的承押人)对 X 的责任由 P 承担费用解除,D2(顺位在后的抵押权人)因此受益(即 BFC)
- P indemnified D against a loss caused by X under a contract of indemnity, P may take over |D’s rights against X [in D’s name]. X’s liability to D has not been discharged (i.e. subrogation to subsisting rights) such that:-
P 根据赔偿合同对 D 因 X 造成的损失进行了赔偿,P 可以[以 D 的名义]接管 D 对 X 的权利。X 对 D 的责任尚未解除(即对现有权利的代位求偿),因此:-
- Unjust enrichment (over-indemnification) is prevented
防止不当得利(过度赔偿) - Liability falls on the right person, since X is primarily liable, P is secondarily liable. P recoup its loss. (i.e. typical insurance case – victim (X)’s insurer (P) subrogated to victim’s right to sue wrongdoer (D))
责任落在正确的人身上,因为 X 负有主要责任,P 负有次要责任。P 收回其损失。(即典型的保险案例——受害人(X)的保险公司(P)代位求偿,以受害人的权利起诉侵权人(D))
Notes: 注释:
- You will see that (2) is basically a supplement claim of claim (1). It enhances the remedy obtainable in these circumstances.
您会发现,(2) 基本上是对 (1) 项请求的补充请求。它增强了在这些情况下可获得的救济。 - A (2) claim can also supplement a claim other than for legal compulsion, i.e. mistake, failure of consideration (i.e. Menalou).
(2) 项请求也可以补充法律强制以外的请求,即错误、对价失败(即梅纳罗案)。 - A (3) claim falls outside legal compulsion. It is its own specific unjust factor, but the precise formulation of the unjust factor is unclear.
(3) 项请求不属于法律强制范畴。它是其自身特定的不公正因素,但不公正因素的具体表述尚不明确。
