Abstract

This study will focus on the analysis of guardianship as a support measure for people with disabilities and the scope of their civil liability for acts causing harm (civil and criminal) committed by the person under guardianship. It will also address the situation prior to Law 8/2021 and the legal status of the former guardian as the legal representative of the person under guardianship.
