Book excerpt: The Law of Tort Welcome to my series of pocket books in Irish Law which aimed at beginner-level readers with little or no previous experience of the Law of Tort. Torts are concerned with civil wrongs, whereby one party causes damage to another party. -Tort is the French word for a "wrong" or Latin for "twisted." -Tort is a branch of Civil Law; therefore a tort in law is called a "Civil Wrong" -Tort law protects a variety of injuries and provides remedies (ways to fix) them. Torts can be distinguished from legal wrongs: A Tort is not a breach of contract, where the obligation which is alleged to have been breached arose under an agreement between two parties. A Tort is not a crime, where the object of proceedings is to punish the offender rather than compensate the victim. Using tort law, an injured party can bring a civil case to seek compensation for a wrong done to the party (plaintiff, or injured party) or the party's property. Tort damages or compensation are monetary damages that are sought from the offending party. They are intended to compensate the injured party for the injury suffered.

Book excerpt: Have you ever wanted to know about the law in Ireland but every time you picked up any textbooks or even articles you were completely put off by the terminology and feeling that you would have to learn a whole new language just to be able to read it, let alone understand it.? Well look no further; my books are compiled so that all of the terminology, rules and principles are explained in plain English, leaving you to enjoy learning about the law in Ireland without the headache of terminology and confounding principles. The Law of Tort A tort is a civil wrong, tort is a French word for wrong, or the Latin word (tortum or twisted), a tort occurs when a person commits a civil wrong against another person causing them damage. Tortfeasor is the person who commits the tort. Under tort law, an injured party can bring a civil case to seek compensation for a wrong done to the party or the party's property. Simply put, the law of tort is a branch of law which helps people to make a claim for compensation "usually a money payment" from another person who hurts them or their property. For instance, when one driver hurts another driver because he or she was not paying attention "negligent," the driver who caused the hurt "defendant" may have committed a tort. If a person "plaintiff" is hurt by another person "defendant" they may be able to sue them "civil litigation" and get compensation "usually money." Most torts are accidents, like car accidents or slippery floors where people can fall down and get hurt. But some torts are done on purpose. These are called intentional torts. For example, if one person punches another person, this could be an intentional tort called battery. Most torts cause physical harm to people, however, some torts cause damage to property, like a broken window "trespass to property." Some torts can harm other things, like someone's reputation or a business. "defamation"
