Injury Attributable to the Claimant's Contributory Default Law and Legal Definition
Pursuant to the Uniform Comparative Fault Act, "Injury attributable to the claimant's contributory default" refers to the requirement of a causal relation for the particular damage. Therefore, negligent failure to fasten a seat belt would diminish recovery only for damages in which the lack of a seat-belt restraint played a part.
