neighbor principle

Read a random definition: cestui que trust

A quick definition of neighbor principle:

The neighbor principle is a rule that says we should be careful not to do things that might hurt other people who are close to us. This includes anyone who might be affected by our actions, and we should always think about how our choices might impact them. Basically, we should treat others the way we would want to be treated ourselves.

A more thorough explanation:

The neighbor principle is a legal doctrine that states that a person must take reasonable care to avoid actions or omissions that could reasonably foreseeably harm their neighbor. In this context, a neighbor refers to anyone who is directly affected by the action or omission in question.

For example, if a person is driving a car and they know that there is a blind spot in their vehicle, they have a duty to take reasonable care to ensure that they do not cause an accident that could harm their neighbor, such as another driver or pedestrian.

Another example could be a property owner who knows that their fence is in disrepair and could potentially fall onto a neighboring property. In this case, the property owner has a duty to take reasonable care to repair the fence and prevent harm to their neighbor.

These examples illustrate the neighbor principle because they show that individuals have a duty to take reasonable care to prevent harm to those who could be directly affected by their actions or omissions.
