Danish term

begrundet ansvar

Danish to English Law/Patents Law (general)
This sentence (Findes tilsagnet i sikredes almindelige salgs- og leveringsbetingelser, og har selskabet godkendt tilsagnet, er et i dette begrundet ansvar for en af forsikringen i øvrigt omfattet skade dog dækket) is from the Danish General Terms and Conditions – Combined Business and Product Liability Insurance (Almindelige betingelser – Kombineret erhvervs- og produktansvarsforsikring 53-2).

I can't fully understand the last part of the source sentence. I know it's something about injuries/damages that are covered by the insurance being also covered.

The background to this is that a person taking part in a clinical trial had an adverse event, and the clinic where they were treated for that is submitting a claim to the sponsor of the trial.

Thanks All.

Charles's suggestion actually makes perfect sense; Christopher's comment alludes to that solution as well.
Pernille Kienle Mar 20:
I'm unable to add the revised suggestion, so... justified liability: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CEL...
Pernille Kienle Mar 20:
Oops You are right - I think it should be justified liability instead
As I read this, the ansvar is begrundet i dette

Selected

liability based on this

This can only be translated by reference to the entire context:
"Forsikringen dækker ikke ansvar, som følger af et tilsagn fra sikrede om en anden erstatningsydelse eller om et videregående ansvar end, hvad der følger af almindelige erstatningsregler. Findes tilsagnet i forsikringstagerens almindelige salg- og leverings- betingelser, og har selskabet godkendt tilsagnet, er et i dette begrundet ansvar for en af forsikringen omfattet skade dog dækket."

The insured has made a warranty in its sales terms regarding a product, and the insurer has approved that. Something goes amiss, and the insured is covered for a liability claim based on the product warranty. In plain English in the insurance world: contractual liability cover(age)

Danish term (edited): (i dette) begrundet ansvar

(therein) grounded liability

Findes tilsagnet i sikredes almindelige salgs- og leveringsbetingelser, og har selskabet godkendt tilsagnet, er et *i dette begrundet* ansvar for en af forsikringen i øvrigt omfattet skade dog dækket

A Germanic construction no more and no less. Short 'answer' : liability grounded in the client's own T&C and doubinge up with the ins. co.'s own cover/age vs. damages and compensation 'sounding' in (E&W:) tort (Scots law) the law of delict/s.

> is the warranty (literally: assurance / covenant for land) to be found in the insured's (pharma-trial co's ? > warrantee's own) terms and conditions of sale and delivery, and should the (insurance?) company (concern / partnership) have approved (of) such warranty, then any liability (civil or criminal accountability or answerability: UK Solicitor end-clients 'which is it?') grounded in such {AmE: predicated BrE: based thereon} for a claim (casualty) that is otherwise covered by the insurance - shall still (nevertheless) be covered = IMO an allowable double insurance clause.

Obiter, I am afraid I cannot summon up enough interest and enthusiasm for the next Product Liability tort & insurance conference in Vienna...

... doubling up with the ins. co.'s own cover/age..
Example sentence:

it is undoubtedly true that Member State regimes designed to ensure the rapid payment of compensation to victims will need to be amended to ensure that *liability grounded* in the PLD (EU Product Liability Directive) is included

AmE: Liability is generally predicated upon the theory that the dangerous condition constitutes a nuisance
