Spanish term or phrase: Responsabilidad dolosa
Hello,
Any suggestions on the above term appearing in a paper on food law in Spain. "...ya hallamos pronunciamientos sobre la posibilidad de responsabilidad dolosa de quien interviene en eslabones intermedios de la cadena alimentaria". Is this just another way of saying criminal liability?
Thanks in advance

Mens Rea Liability


Explanation:
...instructions on the two alternative theories of mens rea liability: (1) appellant intended to kill Best, or (2) the transfer of appellant‘s intention to kill Jones to Best under the principle of transferred intent. [pg. 5]

The three basic categories of liability are mens rea liability, strict liability and absolute liability. Mens rea in its simplest form requires that the Crown prove as the wrongful act and the accused’s intention to commit the act for a conviction to be achieved.

neutral  AllegroTrans: "mens rea" is a concept in itself and doesn't go with "liability" despite your (dodgy) references

  -> In criminal law, mens rea means "criminal intent." Lo mismo pasa con dolo: "intención delictiva". As for "dodgy," I never thought of the DC Court of Appeals as dodgy. Cheers, Allegro.
