Tort - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1204 words)
The origins of the modern law of torts lie in the old remedies of trespass and trespass on the case.
Tort law is distinguished from the law of contract, the law of restitution, and the criminal law.
The law of torts therefore aims to restore the injured person to the position he or she was in before the tort was committed (the expectation or rightful position principle).
