Extract

The concept of liability on the part of the government as a consequence of its legal activities in the legislative as well as in the judicial field is one of the major achievements of French legal doctrine and jurisprudence. Although conditions for such liability still present some difficulties, the fact that the government now accepts liability as a principle for any harm created by the laws or by court decisions has uncovered a new area of legal development.
