A dependent intervening cause is an event relying on the conduct of the defendant. In other words, it would not happen until the defendant acts. In criminal law, an intervening cause may prevent the liability of a criminal law defendant. It interferes with the sequence of events the defendant sets in action. A practical example of an independent intervening cause is an individual struck by a vehicle and dies instantly in seeking medical attention. The car that strikes the person is the independent intervening cause.
