INTRODUCTION 1 The reason for choosing the topic

Human health is infinite Importantly, it is not only the precious capital of each person, but also the precious capital of relatives, the community and the society Because the relationship of people with people in society is a relationship of binding, influence, and interrelationship Infringing on human health is not simply causing damage to that person, but it also entails many consequences behind A damaged person causes negative physical and mental impacts on relatives and family members of the victim, not only that, but it can also cause bad impacts on society

Compromise damages are a specific type of tort that is commonly encountered When the health is violated, the person who violates the health of others will have to compensate for the damage However, there are a number of provisions that are no longer suitable with reality and thereby cause many difficulties for the application of the law by the proceeding agencies, including related to the settlement and adjudication of criminal cases Court The legal regulations have made many fundamental changes related to the regulation of compensation for non-contractual damages, overcoming a number of limitations and inadequacies arising in social life

However, through the practical application of the law in the past time, there are still different understandings of some provisions of the law leading to inconsistency in the application of the law, what is the actual and fundamental damage The basis for determining the actual damage is based on what criteria, it is difficult to determine and convert into economic value, besides there are arising problems such as: determining the error of compensation for damage caused by many people, compensation Usually

damage caused by animals The practice of solving various types of cases related to compensation for damage caused by infringing health at Vinh City People's Court in recent years has been relatively numerous, for example in 2019: 17 cases; 2020: 19 cases; 2021: 14 cases, in the process of settlement, the Court has applied the provisions of the Civil Code to conciliate or adjudicate, but there are still some difficulties and limitations from the legal side, the aggrieved side, and the side the person causing damage and from the Court in the application of the law affecting the quality of settlement of all kinds of cases and matters related to compensation for damage caused by infringing health

Stemming from the above situation, I would like to choose the topic

"Compensation for damage to victims in cases of infringing on human health,

from the practice of the People's Court of Vinh city, Nghe An province"

Graduate thesis majoring in Theory and History of State and Law

2 Research status of the topic

Up to now, compensation for non-contractual damages in general and compensation for infringing health in particular have been published and implemented in the form of a good thesis by many research works articles published in scientific journals and newspapers such as: Master's thesis of

Nguyen Minh Chau,"Compensation for damage in case of infringing life and

health, some theoretical and practical issues"; Master's thesis by Nguyen

Quynh Anh (2011), "Compensation for extra-contractual damage caused by

illegal acts under the Civil Code 2005", Vietnam National University, Hanoi;

Master's thesis in Law by Dao Thao Ly,"Compensation for damage caused by

acts of others according to Vietnamese law"; Master's thesis by Pham Thi

health according to Vietnamese law", Vietnam National University, Hanoi

damages, issues raised when amending the Civil Code in 2005", Democracy

and Law magazine ( 4); Mr Ngo Thu Trang (2019), " Problems in the

application of the law on compensation for non-contractual damages”,

provisions of civil law", People's Court magazine; Nguyen Van Hoi (2011),

according to the provisions of current Vietnamese civil law", People's Court

magazine (No 14)

The above works and articles have raised and analyzed the general issues of compensation for non-contractual damages as well as the issue of compensation for damage caused by infringing health in accordance with the law and other documents relevant version Contributing a lot in applying the provisions of the law to solve the cases, the compensation for damage caused by the health has been violated so far

However, in practice, in the settlement of compensation for damage caused by infringing health, there are still difficulties and obstacles leading to inconsistent application of the law, and the legal rights of the victims have not been resolved in time Timely, thoroughly, not fully clarifying the responsibility of the person to be compensated according to regulations

Therefore, the topic "Compensation for damage to victims in cases of

infringing upon human health, from the trial practice of the People's Court of Vinh city, Nghe An province" aims to study compensation for damage caused

Trang 13

Non-contractual damages are a type of legal performance, making compensation for compromised health arise when the conditions prescribed by law are satisfied Compensation for damage caused by infringing upon human health has the general characteristics of non-contractual damages unless otherwise provided for by law The law does not specifically stipulate the basis for arising compensation for damage caused by the infringing health, but only stipulates the basis for arising out-of-contract compensation

Compensation for non-contractual damage is a type of legal liability, a coercive measure of the State under which the damage-causing person must compensate for the damage caused by his/her act when that act is performed at fault intentionally or unintentionally infringing upon property, health, life,

Trang 14

honor, dignity, reputation and other moral rights of individuals, property, honor and reputation of legal entities or subjects other

Acts of infringing upon health are illegal acts, except in exceptional cases as prescribed by law Compensation for damages arises when a person commits an act that infringes on the health of another, has damage in fact, there is a causal relationship between the act and the damage This behavior is illegal The person who commits the act knows that it is an act that is contrary to the provisions of the law, dangerous to people around, and infringes on social relationships protected by the state, but still intentionally performs it

From there, it is possible to generalize the concept of compensation for damage to victims in cases of infringing human health, which is to compensate for the damage of the person whose act infringes on the health of others, leaving a negative impact on the health of others bad for the person's health

Compensation for damage to victims in cases of infringing upon human health has the following characteristics:

- Persons who cause damage to the health of others must compensate for both material and spiritual losses Unlike other damages, the person causing the damage is only compensated for material damage, while for the compensation for damage caused by the infringed health, the aggrieved party

is compensated for both the material value and the damage mental loss

- The law also stipulates that a person who does not commit acts of infringing upon the health of others, but still has to pay compensation, in case property causes damage, the owner or possessor of the property must pay compensation, for example, the compensation for damage caused by a source of extreme danger according to the provisions of Article 601 of the Civil

Code 2015

Trang 15

- Damage-causing persons are not required to pay compensation in case the damage is caused by force majeure events or entirely due to force majeure events fault of the aggrieved party, for example, the victim intentionally jumped into a car to commit suicide But in cases where there is agreement or other regulations, compensation will still arise, for example: regulations of competent state agencies on management of sources of extreme danger in the rainy and stormy season

1.1.2 The meaning of compensation for damage to victims in cases of infringing upon human health

The obligation to compensate for damage is a type of civil relationship in which the person infringing upon the life, health, honor, If the dignity, reputation, property, legitimate rights and interests of others cause damage, they must compensate for the damage they cause

Compensation for damage caused by infringing health is prescribed in the current legal system, meaning for the protection of the life and health of individuals that cannot be infringed At the same time, educate the sense of law observance, respect for the legitimate rights and interests of other subjects; prevent other violations

Compensation for damage to victims in cases of infringing on health is to ensure compensation for damage caused, and to protect the legitimate rights and interests of victims

The general principle of the law is that a person who causes an act of causing damage, contrary to the law, must bear the consequences, that is, to pay compensation for the damage caused by his/her act, contributing to ensuring social justice

Through the regulation of compensation for health damage along with its application to settle related disputes, this regulation also has the meaning of

Trang 16

deterring, educating and preventing violations of the law, causing damage From there, other people can see the consequences if they have harmful behavior Besides, it is also meaningful in propagating and educating the law through strict sanctions, raising people's legal consciousness

1.2 Principles, contents and forms of compensation for damage to victims in cases of infringing upon human health

1.2.1 Principles of compensation for damage to victims in cases of infringing on human health

Compensation for damage caused by harmed health is specified in chapter XX "Compensation for damage outside the contract" of the 2015 Civil Code civil action due to the act causing damage arising between the subjects The party committing illegal acts must compensate the aggrieved party The ground giving rise to a civil obligation is "causing damage due to illegal acts" performed is understood as the duty and obligation of the damage-causing party to compensate the aggrieved party Accordingly, the basis for arising damages is the legal basis on which the Court can determine compensation for damage

Principles of compensation for damage, Article 585 of the 2015 Civil Code stipulates:

1 Actual damage must be fully and promptly compensated The parties may agree on the level of compensation, the form of compensation in cash, in kind or performance of a job, the compensation method once or many times, unless otherwise provided for by law

2 Persons subject to compensation for damage may be entitled to a reduction in compensation if there is no fault or unintentional fault and the damage is too great for their economic ability

Trang 17

3 When the compensation level is no longer consistent with reality, the aggrieved party or the damage-causing party has the right to request a court or other competent state agency to change the compensation level

4 When the aggrieved party is at fault in causing damage, it is not entitled to compensation for the part of the damage caused by its fault

5 The party whose rights and interests are infringed shall not be compensated if the damage occurs due to the failure to apply necessary and reasonable measures to prevent or limit the damage to itself

The contents of the provisions have the above principles, which can be understood:

- The actual damage must be fully and timely compensated:

When the incident occurs, the parties can agree on the level of compensation and the form of compensation usually in money, in kind or performing a job, the compensation method is one-time or many times, unless otherwise provided for by law In case of lawsuit settlement, the Court must respect the agreement of the parties on the level of compensation, the form of compensation and the mode of compensation, if such agreement is not contrary to law or social ethics In case the parties cannot reach an agreement, when settling a dispute over compensation for damage upon request or necessity, the Court shall apply provisional urgent measures as prescribed in Chapter VIII of the provisional emergency measures time, is specified in Clause 3, Article 114 of the 2015 Civil Procedure Code "Forcing the pre-performance of part of the obligation to compensate for damage caused by life or health being infringed"

- Persons subject to compensation for damage may be entitled to a reduction in compensation if there is no fault or unintentional fault and the damage is too great compared to their economic ability:

Trang 18

The damage occurred is too great compared to the previous economic possibility the eyes and the long term of the person causing the damage, that is, the damage occurs for which they have made compensation, for which their immediate economic situation as well as in the long run cannot be fully compensated or most of the damage

- When the compensation level is no longer consistent with reality, the aggrieved party or the damage-causing party has the right to request a court or other competent state agency to change the compensation level

Due to a change in the socio-economic situation, a fluctuation in prices, the compensation being paid is no longer appropriate in that condition or due to a change in the status of injury, disability, or disability labor of the aggrieved person, so the level of compensation for damage is no longer suitable for that change, or because there is a change in the economic ability of the person causing the damage, the person whose health is violated can claim to match reality For example, the moment the damage occurs requires prosthetics, dentures By the time I went to work, the price of dentures and dentures had increased a lot compared to the previous time

- When the aggrieved party is at fault in causing damage, it is not entitled to compensation for the damage caused by its fault:

With fair argument, no matter how much damage is caused, compensation will be paid, but in many cases the aggrieved party is at fault for causing the damage, for example: a person intentionally rushes into a car to commit suicide

The damage is partly caused by the damage sufferer, and partly due to the fault of the person causing the damage, so the damage sufferer is still compensated for the part of the damage that is not due to his fault It is not easy to determine the degree of fault of the person causing the damage in the

Trang 19

practice of judgment settlement, especially the division of the percentage of damage that occurs in the cases of "mixed fault"

- The party whose rights and interests are infringed shall not be compensated if the damage occurs due to the failure to apply necessary and reasonable measures to prevent or limit the damage to itself For example: a person injured in a motorcycle accident, although the wound is light, does not wear a bandage, does not disinfect, leading to a serious infection

1.2.2 Contents of compensation for damage to victims in cases of infringing upon human health

Article 590 of the 2015 Civil Code stipulates that damage caused by infringing health is as follows:

1 Damage caused by infringing health includes:

a) Reasonable expenses for the treatment, fostering and rehabilitation of the aggrieved person's health and lost or reduced functions;

b) The actual lost or reduced income of the aggrieved person; if the actual income of the aggrieved person is unstable and cannot be determined, the average income of the same type of worker shall apply;

c) Reasonable expenses and actual lost income of the carer of the damage sufferer during the treatment period; if the aggrieved person loses his working capacity and needs someone to take care of him regularly, the damage includes reasonable expenses for taking care of the aggrieved person;

d) Other damage prescribed by law

2 The person who bears compensation in case the health of another person is violated must pay compensation for damage as prescribed in Clause 1 of this Article and another sum of money to make up for the mental loss suffered by that person The level of compensation for mental loss shall be

Trang 20

agreed upon by the parties; if no agreement can be reached, the maximum level for a person whose health is infringed shall not exceed fifty times the base salary prescribed by the State

When a person's health is violated, damage is determined to include material damage and mental loss

Physical damage is actual damage that can be specifically calculated using units of measurement Physical damage includes types of damage specified in units of measurement Material damage includes the types of damage specified in Clause 1, Article 590 of the Civil Code 2015 Only actual damage is compensated, so when claiming for damage, the damage sufferer must give produce evidence to prove the actual damage has been incurred such as: Emergency expenses, treatment expenses including rent of vehicles to go to emergency at medical facilities, money for drugs and money to buy medical equipment, costs of screening, x-ray, tomography, ultrasound, testing, surgery, blood transfusion, physical therapy as prescribed by the doctor, hospital fees, money to buy supplements, protein, allowances health rehabilitation as prescribed by a doctor, expenses for fitting prosthetics, prostheses, artificial eyes, buying wheelchairs, crutches, cosmetic corrections to support or replace a part of body functions (if yes); other actual and necessary expenses for the victim (if any)

- Compensation for the aggrieved person's income: actual lost income, reduced real income

The damage to the victim's health has resulted in the loss of the income he or she would have received if the damaging event had not occurred

- Compensation for the carer of the aggrieved person: this is the damage arising indirectly from the event causing the damage, reasonable expenses

Trang 21

include train, car, rental accommodation for the carer, income the caregiver's lost reality

- Long-term compensation and support compensation in case the aggrieved person loses working capacity: Reasonable monthly expenses for nurturing, regular and periodic treatment expenses, reasonable expenses for people who regularly take care of, and alimony for the people whom the victims are providing support

- Compensation for mental loss: An amount to compensate for the mental loss suffered by the victim This is a type of damage that cannot be specifically determined by units of measurement, so it will be difficult to determine Mental damage is large or small, sometimes regardless of how much physical damage is, how big or small the damage to health is It is possible that the person who suffers from health damage suffers very little health damage but has to suffer great mental harm This type of damage is usually determined by agreement of the parties, if the parties cannot reach an agreement, the Court shall decide but not exceeding fifty times the base salary prescribed by the State

1.2.3 Forms of compensation for victims in cases of infringing upon human health

The form of compensation for damage caused by an infringing health is the method of performing the obligations of the damage-causing party to the aggrieved party, the form of compensation is mutually agreed upon by the parties (but must not violate the prohibition of law) by law, not contrary to social morality) or as prescribed by law

For damages caused by infringing health, the form of compensation that the Court usually applies is monetary compensation Reasonable expenses incurred by the aggrieved person and the person taking care of the aggrieved

Trang 22

person will be calculated into a specific amount The parties can agree on a one-time payment method or many times depending on specific conditions and circumstances

When the court's decision has taken legal effect, if the judgment debtor has not yet fully executed the amount of money that must be compensated for the judgment debtor, he/she must also bear monthly interest on the unenforced amount according to the interest rate on overdue debt announced by the State Bank corresponding to the unenforced time When settling civil, marriage and family cases, to ensure the interests of the judgment creditor, together with deciding the amount of money that the property obligor must pay to the judgment creditor , the Court must decide in the judgment or decision from the date of filing a petition for judgment enforcement (for amounts payable to the judgment creditor) until the execution of all sums of money, monthly, the judgment debtor must also bear interest on the remaining amount of the judgment debt at the interest rate agreed upon by the two parties but must not exceed 20% per year, if there is no agreement, the interest rate 10% of the year corresponds to the execution time If the party to pay compensation for damage is late in paying, the person who is compensated for damage due to his/her health will be guaranteed his/her legal rights

In case the aggrieved person completely loses his/her working capacity, the aggrieved person is entitled to compensation from the time of complete loss of working capacity until his/her death, unless otherwise agreed

For the amount of alimony that the damage-causing person is obliged to pay due to the infringed health due to the infringed health, the Court usually applies as a one-time compensation, for the cases of infringing life then compensate monthly until it is done in accordance with the provisions of the law The alimony for the person for whom the damage sufferer is obliged to

Trang 23

support must be made monthly; for lost or reduced incomes for carers of the completely incapacitated aggrieved persons are also entitled to monthly compensation

1.3 Claim compensation for victims in cases of infringing on human health

1.3.1 Legal requirements

Compensation for non-contractual damage in general, compensation for damage caused by compromised health in particular is one of the common types of civil disputes Currently, the regulations on compensation for damage to victims when their health is violated are stipulated in the Civil Code 2015, the 2015 Penal Code and a number of relevant legal documents, which are basically adequate, so that agencies procedure-conducting agency, in which the Court plays the role of the adjudicating body applied when settling disputes quite comprehensively and thoroughly, ensuring the legitimate rights and interests of the involved parties

In practice, when dealing with a claim for damages due to compromised health, there are still many disagreements when applying the settlement, that is, new regulations, general regulations but also many different interpretations, for example:

- Regulations on compensation for damage caused by houses and other construction works when the builder is at fault and must jointly compensate for damage caused by many people, which is determined corresponding to the fault level of the contractor each person To determine the "error" in these

Trang 24

cases when there are no documents to guide the specific cases is a difficult issue, there are many disagreements with each other

The requirement to determine compensation for damage to victims in cases of infringing upon human health is relatively fully regulated by law, most clearly shown in the 2015 Civil Code (amended) However, because some regulations are still general, some new regulations lead to difficulties in the application of the law in the field of compensation for damage caused by infringing health, while the guidance on the application The law of the competent authority has not yet been timely In order to put into practice and concretize claims for compensation for damage caused by compromised health, the guidance of Resolution 03/2006/NQ-HDTP dated July 8, 2006 of the Appraisal Council is still being applied Judge of the Supreme People's Court (This Resolution provides guidance on compensation for non-contractual damages of the 2005 Civil Code)

Therefore, the legal requirement for compensation for damage caused by health damage now, as well as in the future, needs to be regulated by competent authorities, the Council of Judges of the Court The Supreme People's People's Supreme People will promptly and specifically guide the provisions of Chapter XX of the 2015 Civil Code, only then will we be able to protect the legitimate interests of the victims, as well as perform the obligations for individuals , the legal entity has to make compensation

1.3.2 Socio-economic requirements

Cases and claims for damages due to infringing health always occur in social life, greatly affecting human health, potentially causing disputes in social life that otherwise would not have occurred timely and satisfactory settlement will arise other more complicated problems, greatly affecting

Trang 25

social order and safety, requiring competent agencies and local authorities to apply the provisions of law laws, customs and practices similar to the law in order to promptly settle cases and ensure the legitimate interests of the victims, and at the same time, to force the action to be taken by the person causing the damage in accordance with the provisions of law law

The socio-economic requirement is that the legal system always promptly supplements and adjusts newly arising relationships to keep up with the movement and development of society, and human-to-human relationships In the era of strong development of science and information technology, there were changes different from the previous traditional relationship, when the incident happened, there was a timely voice of the social community by means of telecommunications, websites and social media social network, personal But on the contrary, there is also a potential risk of infringing on human health, for example, means of transport, the development of the transport system leads to an increasing number of traffic accidents every year, which is difficult to control Poor safety at work in construction sites and factories often occurs In the field of false advertising of products, especially advertising of medicines, food affects human health

In addition to the above effects, the market economy also has many other effects such as the profound disparity between rich and poor, causing new conflicts to arise in society, and easily giving rise to crimes and evils society, potentially endangering human rights Therefore, it is required that the Party and State take timely leadership on economic development guidelines and policies, but must be associated with ensuring the safety of human life and health

Trang 26

On the other hand, when the social economy is developed, the human relationships have changed differently from the traditional relationship before In the era of strong development of science and information technology, when the incident happened, there were mechanisms to protect and timely speak up of the social community by means of telecommunications, social networking sites, and individuals In fact, through social networking sites, cases of infringing human health are detected and handled promptly

Trang 27

human-to-Sub-conclusion of chapter 1

From the study of the theory of compensation for damage and the principles, content, form, and requirements for determining compensation for damage to victims in cases of infringing upon human health, it is possible to understand more comprehensively and fully than the provisions of the current law for crimes infringing on health and compensation for damage to victims The provisions of the law have basically met the requirements of reality, realizing the protection of human rights, in which the right to life, the right to safety in life, health and body

However, the application of the law into practice is still limited for many reasons, the regulations are still general, and some new regulations have not been guided in a timely manner In addition, the results of the settlement of competent agencies, including the Court, still face many difficulties and problems leading to the compensation of damage to victims in cases of infringing upon human health that has not yet been answered fully applicable in practice To be able to see how the process of applying for the settlement in the locality takes place, I would like to analyze and evaluate the situation at the People's Court of Vinh city, Nghe An province
