Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be "False".

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A common law doctrine that if an individual became hospitalized or injured in part because of their fault (her/his "contributed" negligence to the incident), that party would not be able to receive any insurance (funds) from some other party that had been causing the incident.
  • Contributive responsibility or negligence shall apply in which case the defendant shall not be eligible for any compensation.

Therefore, the given statement is false.
