Law/Patents - Law (general) / demanda por indemnización de daños y perjuicios

Spanish term or phrase: a cuya virtud el demandado debe responder de

Demanda por indemnización de daños y perjuicios (Corte de Apelaciones de Iquique):

El artículo XXXX del Código Civil configura la existencia en nuestra legislación de la responsabilidad vicaria o por el hecho de los dependientes, a cuya virtud el demandado debe responder también de la falta de cuidado o diligencia de parte de sus empleados, que produjo el hecho dañoso.

En este caso "responder" tiene el sentido de "liable for"?

Gracias por su ayuda :)
