Abstract

The civil responsibility of indirect cause and direct cause of Iran law has many similarities and differences with the intervening factor in the law of England. The expression of a variety of intervening factors as an independent and dependent intervener shows that an independent intervener is similar to direct cause and dependent intervener is like a poor direct cause. However, due to the changes introduced by Article 526 of the Islamic Penal Code of 1392, in the state of community, indirect cause and direct cause are both principally responsible and, with the difference in the effect of the amount of intervention, responsibility will also be relative, and the tendency towards material and objective factors in Iran law will be more than fraudulent factors and immaterial factors. The civil responsibility of cause priority effect, which is well-known in the community of longitudinal causes in jurisprudence and Iran law, is like the same civil responsibility of cause and primary factor against dependent intervener factor. The direct cause who are affected by the primary cause, committed the felony and hurt in Iran law in state having will is responsible, in contradiction to the procedure of England law, which is such a direct cause is dependent intervening factor and irresponsible.
