If the thief falls to his death on the seventh floor, is the entire building responsible?

The thief climbed the stairs to steal, was frightened and fell to death after being found by the owner, the owner should not be legally responsible, and the owner did not do anything that threatened the life of the thief, such a thing was caused by himself.

The homeowner's response to the thief's stealing should be yelling. This can only be an unforeseen event. The thief himself is an adult and should know the danger of stealing, and the homeowner is only defending his rights and does not need to bear legal responsibility.

No, theft is an illegal act The thief fell to his death and has nothing to do with the owner, and the owner is also an accident, so he will not bear legal responsibility.

I don't think I'll be held legally responsible because the owner doesn't know that the thief is there, and the thief is already a crime.

Legal Analysis: The owner is not responsible. The owner could not foresee the thief's actions and the consequences of his actions, that is, there was no intention and negligence, and the thief's fall to death was an accident.

This accident is not within the scope of no-fault liability under the Civil Code. Therefore, the owner does not need to bear tort liability, but in practice, the owner often pays financial compensation for going out for humanitarian reasons.

Legal basis: Civil Code of the People's Republic of China

Article 1165:[Principle of Fault Liability]Where the perpetrator infringes upon the civil rights and interests of others and causes harm due to his fault, he shall bear tort liability.

Where it is presumed that the actor is at fault in accordance with the provisions of law, and he cannot prove that he is not at fault, he shall bear tort liability.

Article 1166:[Principle of No-Fault Liability]Where an actor causes harm to the civil rights and interests of others, regardless of whether the actor is at fault, and the law provides that tort liability shall be borne, follow those provisions.

For this question, it is still more interesting, I personally think that the thief burglary, in fact, is a game between the psychological quality of the thief and the psychological quality of the owner, why do you say so? Because this is one of the factors that we can judge whether the owner is responsible or not.

Judging from the thief's horn and grandeur, the thief robbed the house, which sounds like a manifestation of "very domineering" and "very powerful", but in fact, as a thief himself, he is also very weak and afraid, and he is also frightened and takes risks.

Under normal circumstances, if there is a thief in our house, maybe everyone's instinctive reaction is to be more scared, and they will shout loudly, and at this time, if you encounter a more timid thief, or a thief with a weak heart, as soon as you hear the owner shouting, you will panic first and want to run away quickly. If you jump out of the window in a hurry and fall to your own death, then the owner of the house does not need to bear any responsibility. Because after all, the thief jumped into the wilderness, and the land register building has no direct relationship with the owner of the house.

Although the owner of the house shouted at the thief, this shouting was not intended to force the thief to jump off the building, but as an instinctive psychological reaction of a normal person, it was a kind of cry out of fear. Therefore, in this case, the owner should not be responsible for the death of the thief.

But there is also a situation that some homeowners themselves are more courageous, or in the face of these emergencies have better psychological quality, but also more calm, not only will not panic in the face of thieves, but will also chase and beat thieves。At this time, if it is because of the persecution or pursuit of the landlord, the thief has no way to escape, and he has to use the way of jumping off the building to stop the landlord's pursuit. So at this time, if the thief jumps off the building and falls and is injured, then the homeowner may bear some responsibility at this time, because there is a causal relationship between the thief jumping off the building and the pursuit of the homeowner.

Many people may feel that this is very unfair to the homeowner, because after all, thieves are lawbreakers。As a homeowner, whether it is chasing or abusing a thief, it is a case of legitimate defense and should not be held responsible.

As a victim, of course, we can use legitimate defense, but we can't defend too much, because after all, there is a legal liability for excessive defense。So in this case, it is recommended that we still deal with it as calmly as possible, as long as the thief does not personally threaten us, we do not need to put the thief to death, it is okay to pursue it appropriately, but excessive pursuit makes the thief want to "die to clear his will", then the gain outweighs the loss.
