Le bilan du puissant séisme de magnitude 7,3 enregistré en Irak et en Iran s’est alourdi à au moins 334 morts et plus de 2 500 blessés. La secousse a été enregistrée à une profondeur de 25 kilomètres, à une trentaine de kilomètres au sud-ouest de la ville d’Halabja, dans une zone montagneuse de la province de Souleimaniyé, a affirmé l’Institut géologique américain.
Le dernier grand tremblement de terre en Iran remonte à décembre 2003 à Bam, dans la province de Kerman (sud-est). Au moins 31 000 personnes avaient été tuées et cette ville avait été presque entièrement détruite.

A Car Accident Lawyer Explains Negligence Laws, Compensation, and Limitations
Car accidents are not only dreadful due to the physical injuries and emotional pain they can impart, but also the litigation that comes afterward, especially when the driver who caused the accident is unwilling to pay proper compensation.
In Oklahoma, negligence plays a role in many car accident injury cases. Furthermore, different remedies can be obtained within certain limits. An Oklahoma car accident lawyer discusses the relevant state laws on negligence, compensation, and the statute of limitations when it comes to filing a claim.
The Concept of Comparative Negligence
In Oklahoma, courts apply the concept of comparative negligence. The legal theory behind comparative negligence lies in the appropriate allocation of fault. Even if you’re the victim of a vehicular collision but your negligence contributed to your injury, the damages you can receive will be decreased in proportion to your negligence.
For example, if you’re awarded $10,000 for your injuries but the court found that you were 10 percent negligible because you did not park your car properly, you’ll only receive $9,000. In other words, comparative negligence punishes all the parties involved in the accident in accordance to their share of the blame. The overall goal of comparative negligence is to instill driver responsibility in general.
To collect damages from car accident injuries due to the negligence of the other driver, your lawyer must be able to prove the following: 1) the defendant had a duty to perform an act or refrain from doing an act, such as failing to stop during a red traffic light; 2) the defendant violated this duty (all drivers are expected to follow traffic rules and violating any is a breach of duty); 3) the breach of obligation harmed the plaintiff; 4) the defendant’s actions or lack of action directly caused the plaintiff’s injuries, such as when someone rearends your car, resulting in your whiplash symptoms; and 5) that the plaintiff incurred damages, such as lost wages and medical bills.
Car Accident Compensation
Plaintiffs can obtain two kinds of damages from a car accident: economic and non-economic. Economic damages pertain to the direct and indirect costs incurred due to injuries or damage to properties, while non-economic damages consist of accident costs that are more abstract and harder to financially compute, such as emotional distress.
