Abstract

In this paper, major aspects of the legal transformation of fault are examined due to algebraic insights. The transformation of fault deals with situations of entrance to mental states which exempt the offender from criminal liability. In these situations, the offender's mental state is transferred and transformed to the commission of the offense. This legal action resembles linear transformations in Algebra, and thus we can evaluate this legal structure more accurately due to algebraic insights.
