TASK 1A tort is a civil wrong that is committed against a person. This includes legal entities likecompanies. According to this law, an individual has some interests which are protected by law.An individual can protect these interests by offering a sum of money and this is known asdamages for infringement of a protected interest (HEIDI, 2016). Additionally, a person is issuedan injunction i.e. a court order to the defendant to refrain from doing something. Negligence intort has different meaning. An individual who is totally disregarding the safety of others and isnot injuring them is not considered as guilty of negligence. On the other hand, an individual whotry his best and falls below the standard set by the court and causes damages is liable. A majorpart of Tort law is the law of negligence. There are several elements needed to be established fora negligence to be actionable. There are three elements of Tort of negligence explanation of theseare as follows :- Duty of care – The defendant owned a legal duty to the plaintiff under the situation likerelation within plaintiff as well as defendant might create legal duty. For example, doctorowns legal duty of their patient for providing them effective medical care (Hylton andLin, 2013). Thus, the suspect may owe a legal duty to behave or act with reasonable carein a specific situation. Breach of Duty – the duty of care was taken but not demonstrated then in this situation ithas been proved that there is an breach of duty. The term "reasonably prudent person"related to the legal standard which shows how the average individual will responsibly actin specific circumstances. In simple terms, the suspect likely will be found neglectful ifafter knowing the mistake done by him or her. In that situation individual is responsiblefor the mistake because he/she have knowledge about it. This is known as breach of dutywhen particular person neglect the mistake done by them or not fulfil their duty towardsperson who is feeling pain. Causation/ damage - The third element requires that the plaintiff show that defendant'snegligence actually caused of his or her injury (Hylton, 2013). Sure, someone might beacting negligently, but the plaintiff can only recover if this negligence somehow causesthe injury.
