REMOTENESS AND CAUSATION

In the case of Ward .v. Sheridan [2010] IEHC 308 Lavin J dismissed the husband’s claim for damages. The husband underwent a vasectomy because of the injuries to his wife and an accident had made it very dangerous for her to become pregnant (she lost a baby in the accident). The plaintiff’s claim was dismissed.
