Abstract

This article aims to provide a solution to the problem of moral damage, by presuming the damage that this category poses, without the presentation of an expert opinion as a means of proof, specifically, via a psychological report. To do this, we intend to analyze and prove the damages that sustaining the in re ipsa theory of this non-pecuniary damage entails. The objective of this investigation is to demonstrate the damages caused by the lack of uniformity in the national judiciary regarding the criteria to determine the amount of non-pecuniary damage. This is a descriptive study in which the qualitative method was used. The population is constituted by the analysis of decisions of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Peru, specifically cassations of the Supreme Court.
