This article examines the right to life and health as fundamental human rights, as well as the legal issues surrounding the compensation for harm caused by violations of these rights. The right to life is one of the inalienable constitutional rights guaranteed by international and national legal instruments. Its violation entails not only legal but also social and moral consequences.
The article analyzes tort obligations within the theory of civil law and their practical application, with a particular focus on existing issues and legal gaps in the mechanism of compensating for damage caused to a citizen’s life and health.
Special attention is given to non-contractual legal relations arising on the basis of law, and modern legal approaches to defining responsibility in such cases. The author substantiates the need to improve the legal mechanisms in this area by examining the relevant norms of the Civil Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan and addressing both theoretical and practical challenges.
