You dumbass deflecting bytch - tort law involves compensatory damages incurred for being on a person’s property, civil damages are person to person matters. Now try again you stupid fuk instead of focusing on me, focus on the subject of the thread. You distracting dumb piece of shyt - you google and think you know only to come up wrong each time; I actually do. Fukkin google fingers faggit, you see this thread and the only thing you do is pretend like you work at it and still can’t add up the figures or come with the right info. Looking dumber and dumber each post. Now read this and act like you have the capacity to understand before I bury you- google the difference between your ass and your face because you’re going to need it to pick what’s left of it off the floor - even a 1L would know the difference:
Is tort law the same as civil law?
Civil law refers to
law governing disputes between private parties. In
civil cases, the plaintiff sues the defendant to obtain compensation for some wrong that the defendant has allegedly done the plaintiff.
Tort lawcovers
torts,
or civil wrongs—injuries done to someone's person
or property.
What is a tort when it comes to civil law?
When another person or entity (such as a business) causes harm through intent or neglect, this is the area of
law that allows victims and their families to seek compensation.
Tort law is also used to determine whether or not an individual should be compensated for his or her injuries and how much money is owed.
For example, if someone slips and falls in a workplace accident, tort law is responsible for determining if the employer is liable for the individual’s injuries and the amount of workers’ compensation due.
- Negligence. Negligence takes place when one person fails to do their duty to prevent injury or accident, leading to damages. Negligence includes slip and falls and car accidents. It’s the most common type of tort.
- Strict liability. Sometimes absolute liability applies to a tort case. This occurs when one party is solely responsible for damages or injury. These include cases of defective products and animal attacks.
