British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Price v. Simons, 1996 CanLII 1974 (BC SC):

In light of my findings and pursuant to Pryor v. Bains, I must determine the damages which would have been awarded had the plaintiff's present condition resulted from a single cause for which the defendant was liable and then award a portion of that amount equivalent to the portion of the plaintiff's disability which can fairly be attributed to the defendant's negligence.
