Legislator summary

AI generated

Following a serious traffic accident, the plaintiff sought compensation for household damages under Article 328 in conjunction with Article 97(1) of the Code of Obligations. The court addressed the method of calculating household damages, affirming that while damages can be assessed abstractly using statistical data (like SAKE statistics), if the injured party initially provides concrete, detailed evidence of the actual time spent on household tasks, the court must evaluate those specific efforts, and the claimant cannot subsequently switch to seeking compensation based on higher statistical averages if the concrete calculation yielded a lower amount.
