Law (general)
Hi! I am translating a judgement and the term "nexo de imputação subjetiva do facto" appeared and I am not sure how I should translate it. Any suggestions?
Here is some context:
"Por outro lado, no que respeita ao nexo de imputação subjectiva do facto ao agente, provou-se que o arguido XX agiu com a sua vontade
livremente determinada, com consciência da natureza estupefaciente das substâncias que detinha, transportou, comprou, vendeu ou destinava à venda,
sabendo que a sua conduta era proibida por lei e criminalmente punida, encontrando-se por conseguinte preenchidos todos os elementos constitutivos do
tipo base previsto e punido pelo art. 21º, n.º 1 do DL n.º 15/93, de 22-01."

imputar: Atribuir a uma pessoa a responsabilidade (negativa ou positiva) de; TAXAR; classificar ou caracterizar - https://www.aulete.com.br/imputar
Entendo que "imputação subjetiva" é quando se atribui, de forma subjetiva, uma conexão entre a ação (ou fato) e o agente da ação.
Causation is the "causal relationship between the defendant's conduct and end result". In other words, causation provides a means of connecting conduct with a resulting effect, typically an injury. In criminal law, it is defined as the actus reus (an action) from which the specific injury or other effect arose and is combined with mens rea (a state of mind) to comprise the elements of guilt. Causation only applies where a result has been achieved and therefore is immaterial with regard to inchoate offenses. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causation_(law)
Example Sentences
"Grace' illustrates a subjective causal link between abusive relationships, relapsing to drug use and inhibiting the desistance process." - http://epubs.surrey.ac.uk/809728/1/L.Osterman_Complete Thesi...
"Subjective Causal Relationship Between Alcohol and Injury. In considering the role of alcohol in injuries, the actual mechanism linking the two can be complex." - https://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handle/10665/44166/97892...

Imputação subjectiva - Expressão que se refer às questões relativas à atitude psicológica do agente em relação ao facto, ou seja, às questões relacionadas com o dolo e com a negligência.
Dicionário Jurídica, Ana Prata e outros, Volume II, pág. 257.
Facto - criminal act
Agente - offender
Mens rea -is the mental element of a person's intention to commit a crime; or knowledge that one's action or lack of action would cause a crime to be committed.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mens_rea
Actus reus - sometimes called the external element or the objective element of a crime, is the Latin term for the "guilty act" which, when proved beyond a reasonable doubt in combination with the mens rea, "guilty mind", produces criminal liability in the common law−based criminal law jurisdictions.
