Federal Act on the Amendment of the Swiss Civil Code (Part Five: The Code of Obligations)
of 30 March 1911 (Status as of 1 January 2023)
Art. 44
IV. Grounds for reducing compensation
1 Where the person suffering damage consented to the harmful act or circumstances attributable to him helped give rise to or compound the damage or otherwise exacerbated the position of the party liable for it, the court may reduce the compensation due or even dispense with it entirely.
2 The court may also reduce the compensation award in cases in which the damage was caused neither wilfully nor by gross negligence and where payment of such compensation would leave the liable party in financial hardship.
