 Findings

Negligent torts are not deliberate actions, but instead present when an individual or entity fails
to act as a reasonable person to someone whom he or she owes a duty to. The negligent action
found in this particular tort leads to a personal injury or monetary damages. Negligent torts are
the most prevalent types of tort, and are the most important.

The elements which constitute a negligent tort are the following: a person must owe a duty of
care or service to the victim in question; the individual who owes the duty must breech or violate
the promise or obligation; as a result of this breech the claimant suffered damage or injury; and
the injury caused must have been reasonably foreseeable as a result of the person's negligent
actions. A duty is some legal obligation that one party has to another party. A breach of that duty
exists when one person’s conduct fails to conform to the required standard. and the damages that
incurred. Finally, the plaintiff must have incurred some type of damages.
