Art. 42 CO
Chi pretende il risarcimento del danno ne deve fornire la prova.
Il danno di cui non può essere provato il preciso importo, è stabilito dal prudente criterio del giudice avuto riguardo all’ordinario andamento delle cose ed alle misure prese dal danneggiato.
Per gli animali domestici non tenuti a scopo patrimoniale o lucrativo, le spese di cura possono essere fatte valere adeguatamente come danno anche quando eccedono il valore dell’animale.
