摘要
We consider a problem of causality in legal reasoning. Conditio sine qua non (c.s.q.n) is a frequently used heuristics which determines a causality in legal reasoning. We argue that a paradox of c.s.q.n, is derived from a confusion between disjunction of causes and disjunctive cause and give a logical solution to the paradox using minimal abduction.
