A tort is a civil wrong that is done to one party by another and that causes the victim to suffer harm or loss. The claimant in a tort matter may sue for damages or other forms of relief. Many torts are created under the common law, but there are also statutory wrongs that amount to torts.
Torts: A tort is a wrongful act that injures or interferes with another's person or property. A tort case is a civil court proceeding. The accused is the "defendant" and the victim is a "plaintiff."
Negligence is by far the most common type of tort. Unlike intentional torts, negligence cases do not involve deliberate actions. Negligence occurs when a person fails to act carefully enough and another person gets hurt as a result. For this type of case, a person must owe a duty to another person.
