Directions
For this discussion board, you will need to create a short story that contains at least three (3) intentional torts against the person and three (3) intentional torts against the property. Once you have submitted your short story, you must read a classmate’s story and identify the six torts within. Your response should include an explanation of the facts that support your identification of each specific tort. An example of a short story and appropriate response can be found below:
As a joke, Annette removes the bullets from her fathers revolver; takes the gun outside, and points it at the head of her neighbor, Mrs. Joiner, who is just leaving her house. Mrs. Joiner, who unknown to Annette suffers from serious heart disease has a stroke and dies instantly.
In the story, Annette has committed the tort of assault because by putting the gun to Mrs. Joiner’s head, she committed a purposeful act that caused apprehension of harmful or offensive contact.
* Please note that although the sample above contains only one tort, you are still required to include a total of six (6) in your version.
Your posts will be graded as follows:
