Task: Class Definition Understanding (ontology: Legal/LKIF_Core_Ontology)

Which of the following definitions best describes 'Obligative Right'?

A. The negation of a directed obligation is a directed permission. However, it counts as a right, namely, a the concept, only when such negation is aimed at benefitting the author of the permitted action.
B. Directed obligative ought-to-do are also called obligative rights. k has the obligative right that j does A iff it is obligatory, toward k, that j does A. An example of obligative right is “it is obligatory, toward Mary, that Tom pays 1,000 euro to John”
C. A the concept expresses some right to act that brings with it some liability to perform another (compensating) act. For instance, if some k performs the permitted action A, then k will have to perform another action B for the benefit of j.
D. When, for the benefit of a person, this person is both permitted to perform and to omit an action – that is, when the action is facultative – we can say that he or she has a the concept with regard to that action.

Answer: Directed obligative ought-to-do are also called obligative rights. k has the obligative right that j does A iff it is obligatory, toward k, that j does A. An example of obligative right is “it is obligatory, toward Mary, that Tom pays 1,000 euro to John”
