lex loci delicti (commissi)

lex loci delicti (commissi)
'the place of the delict or the place where the delict was committed', a term of private international law. In Scotland and many continental countries, this governs the law applicable where a tort or delict has taken place. The law applied is that of the place where the delict was committed. Both English law and Scots law used to apply a 'double delict rule' by which the conduct complained of had to be actionable under the law of the lex loci delicti and Scots or English law. That rule has been repealed by the Private International Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1995.
