Implied cause of action



Implied cause of action is a term used in United States statutory and constitutional law for circumstances when a court will determine that a statute or provision that creates rights also supports a remedy that can be achieved through a lawsuit, even though no remedy is explicitly provided for in the statute. Implied causes of action arising under the Constitution of the United States are treated differently than those based on statutes.
