In this article, the facilitation of causation in medical accidents has been studied comparatively in Iranian and French law with an emphasis on the jurisprudence of the two countries. The purpose of this study was to show the constructive role of French judicial procedure in the evolution of the legal system of this country and to provide constructive solutions to facilitate causation in medical accidents and to use the solutions provided for the Iranian legal and judicial system. By descriptive-analytical research method and by studying jurisprudence, it was concluded that French courts have facilitated the causal relationship by using the presumption of attribution of damages or causality, the negation of other causes, equality of causes and conditions and the theory of loss of opportunity. The jurisprudence of our country has also used some of these solutions, although in a more limited way and mainly in the case of infected blood. However, further use of these legal solutions is necessary in our country to establish a causal relationship in various areas of medical accidents and compensation of victims. Therefore, the use of these solutions as a judicial authority is proposed to the courts.

AbstractWhen concluding an insurance contract, the insured has more information comparing to the insurer. At the other side the insurer takes the risks by relying on the materials represented by the insured. Because of this lack of balance in information, it is not enough in insurance contracts that the parties not having bad faith. This specific feature is the reason to create an important duty in insurance contracts which is named “the duty of representation”. The remedy for breach of the duty of representation in Iran Insurance Law is that when the breach of the duty is unintentional the other party has the right to rescind the contract and when the breach is intentional the contract is void. The England law through case law and recently by acting England Insurance Law 2015 is intended to adjust the remedy and limit the avoidance cases; but Iran Insurance Law acted 1316 without considering the developments of insurance industry during the century, is not trying to adjust or limit the rescission and avoidance cases. In this article some approaches are suggested to the legislator and case law to limit the rescission and avoidance cases cause of breach of the duty of representation.
