A Factual Ground of a Cause of Action: A Concept and Elements

Abstract

The factual basis of the claim consists of facts substantiating the plaintiff’s cause of action. The cause of action may include various facts of legal significance. These facts are classified into legal (right-initiating), rightobtrusive, right-changing and right-terminating. Some authors, as an independent type of facts that may be included in the cause of action, highlight the facts of violation or challenge of the right or legitimate interest. The paper substantiates the attribution of these facts to the right-creating ones. The paper subjects to criticism the views that claim that legal facts and the ability of the plaintiff to substantiate the cause of action by any facts including those of only informative significance are wrong. The author also expresses a negative attitude to the widespread division of the grounds of the cause of action into active and passive. Right-infringing factors included into the passive cause of action — often referred to as facts causing the action — are in fact right-generating factors. Thus, they must be referred to as the active cause of action. Distinguishing the facts of active and passive legitimation from the other facts superfluously and artificially complicates the structure of the cause of action. In procedural theory, it was suggested that the cause of action was not necessarily based on what the plaintiff had pointed out.
In this case, however, it is permissible to mix the concepts of “cause of action” and “cause of satisfaction”, and, therefore, this view cannot be considered correct. Thus, the doctrine on the actual basis of the cause of action contains a significant number of shortcomings that need to be eliminated.
