Asserting a Claim for Indemnification Towards a Defendant who Committed a Criminal Offence as a Responsible Person of a Legal Person which Gained Assets from such Offence

Osoba koja je počinjenjem kaznenog djela pretrpila štetu ima pravo istu nadoknaditi od osobe koja joj je počinjenjem kaznenog djela tu štetu prouzročila. Kada šteta proizlazi iz kaznenog djela koje je počinila odgovorna osoba pravne osobe zastupajući tu pravnu osobu i stekavši imovinsku korist za tu pravnu osobu, oštećenik naknadu štete može potraživati od pravne osobe s kojom je bio u pravnom odnosu koji je nastao počinjenjem kaznenog djela ili od odgovorne osobe kao fizičke osobe koja mu je kaznenim djelom kao takvim prouzročila štetu. Kazneno djelo odgovorne fizičke osobe predstavlja štetnu radnju kojom je između nje i oštećenika zasnovan njihov međusoban i neposredan izvanugovorni odnos kojim je za odgovornu osobu nastala obveza naknade štete.A person injured by a criminal offence is entitled to claim for its restitution from the person who caused such damage by committing a criminal offence. When the damage results from a criminal offence that was commited by a responsible person while representing a legal person and when gaining assets for the legal person, the injured person is entitled to claim for damage restitution from both legal person and responsible person. Legal person\u27s liability then derives from its legal relationship with the injured person, which relationship came into ecxistance through a criminal offence. Responsible person\u27s liability derives from the fact that he/she is the perpetrator of a criminal offence as such. Criminal offence committed by a responsible person as a natural person is an act of damage which results in a non-contractual obligation of the responsible person to restitute damage to the injured person
