Abstract

Within the framework of the theory of liability based on fault, elements such as as harmful acts and damage take priority. Court judges to obtain damages are inevitable, independently and separately, to examining and verifying each of these components; Somehow that the deficiency in each of them leads to a refusal to take civil responsibility. From the perspective of public Law, the paper Understanding such a concern, from a pathological point of view is seeking legal analysis on How to prove the civil liability of the administration. Therefore, the topic by using descriptive-analytic research method is discussed and concluded: though it is corrected the note 1 of the article 10 of the Act on the Establishment and Procedure of the Administrative Justice Court and apparently, the legislator sought to refer the matter to the courts of judiciary; But it must be said, firstly the Administrative Justice Court has the jurisdiction to deal with two pillars: “the harmful act” and the fault”, still within the framework of the "theory of liability based on fault". Secondly, arguments related to: "non-legal" and "non-contradiction" on Administrative Justice court is a serious objection.  Thus, It is appropriate that “the civil liability of the administration” be within the jurisdiction of “the Administrative Justice Court”.
