Abstract

The article discusses the "Restatement (Third) of Torts" legal treatise and the reported causal relevance of intent as of May 2014, focusing on Professor David Robertson's development of a causation hypothetical involving an alleged tortfeasor named Harriet. America's cause-in-fact legal doctrine is mentioned, along with tort cases involving issues such as cyber-torts, child pornography possession, and intentional or reckless contributions to terrorism. Liability is also examined.
