Note 350 — Chapter XVIII · INTENTION AND NEGLIGENCE.
Reading edition
The Roman law as to the rights of adjoining proprietors was different. Harm done animo nocendi, that is to say, with a malicious motive, was actionable. D. 39. 3. 1. 12. The German Civil Code, sect. 226, provides quite generally that the exercise of a right is unlawful when its only motive is to harm another person.
