Tort Law
A tort is a civil wrong, other than breach of contract, that causes a claimant to suffer loss or harm, resulting in legal liability for the person who commits the tortious act. Tort law can be contrasted with criminal law, which deals with crime, criminal wrongs that are punishable by the state.

While tort law in civil law (legal system), civil law jurisdictions largely d ...
