Topic - Evaluation of Emotional Distress in Tort Case: Legal Framework
The two parties seen in tort cases are the plaintiff and the defendant (Fotte & Lareau, 2013). The plaintiff is the person who has filed an alleged tort whereas the defendant is the person who has caused harm to the plaintiff (Fotte & Lareau, 2013). In civil lawsuits there are three types of relief they are monetary compensation, specific performance, and an injunction (Fotte & Lareau, 2013). An injunction refers to preventing the defendant from taken action whereas specific performance refers having the defendant do something or something that he/she should have done (Foote & Lareau, 2013). Monetary compensation refers to receiving money from the defendant for damages
