RECKLESSNESS
Categories: Contracts
Definition (1910 Edition)
cation “recht” (or “drott,” or “dirttto,” or “right”) is the correlative of “duty” or “obligation.” In the former sense, it may be considered as opposed to wrong, injustice, or the absence of law. The word “rechi” has the further ambiguity that it is used in contradistinction to “gesetz,” as “jus” is opposed to “lew,” or the unwritten law to enactet law. See Droit; Jus; RieHt.
