Italian court dismisses appeal regarding civil liability for damages caused by a third party's tortious act.

The Supreme Court of Cassation dismissed the appeal filed by the plaintiff against the lower court's judgment. The plaintiff argued that the defendant should bear full liability for damages resulting from a third party's intentional tort, claiming the defendant failed to exercise due diligence. The court ruled that under Italian law, the defendant is not strictly liable for the third party's actions absent specific statutory exceptions or proof of the defendant's own fault.
