Civil liability for road accident confirms presumption of fault bars liability cap for the commissioning party.

The Tribunal da Relação de Lisboa confirmed the lower court's judgment regarding civil liability for a road accident involving a commissioning party. The plaintiff argued that the commissioning officer should be exempt from the liability cap due to a lack of fault, while the defendant contended that the presumption of fault should apply. The court ruled that because the commissioning officer failed to rebut the presumption of fault, the liability cap does not apply to them.
