This article deals with the concept of causation in legal discourse. It first deals with the concept of causation on the level of science, philosophy and in a commonly used language.When exploring problems of legal and moral responsibility, it is necessary to cope with the problems of the sense of causation, causal nexus, a cause and effect. The issue of this article is to find out solution for causal connection in particular paradigmatic cases and set up some causal formulas that could be used in legal practice.
