Key legal question
Whether the civil damages owed to La Poste Suisse should be reduced for contributory fault under Art. 44 CO
Extracted holding
No reduction was warranted because no blameworthy contributory conduct of the injured party was established on the facts found below.
Extracted reasoning
The record did not show that D. or La Poste Suisse failed to take prudential elementary measures. Even if some lack of diligence existed, it was not sufficient to exclude liability or justify reduction, and any possible contractual fault of La Poste Suisse would not affect the appellant's tort liability.
