Abstract

Urgency is one of the cases that can be cited as examples of disclaimer, and in Iranian and British law, the literal meaning of urgency is not separate from its legal meaning. Civil liability in the legal system of any country is considered an important category that can be referred to as the responsibility of the government, judges, doctors, drivers, etc. Loss is the main pillar of urgency and civil liability and in this article, it is important to examine the urgency in terms of how to compensate damages in civil liability. Emergency conditions are effective in many contracts and may cause the suspension and termination of contracts and inaction. Obligations in the law and governments have issued special laws to address this situation and overcome the crises that threaten the country. Finally, it can be concluded that if a person harms another in an emergency, he is not absolved of responsibility at all, although the distressed person may be obliged to pay full compensation.
