Torts - Duty for Pure Economic Harm Q
Posted: Thu May 03, 2012 11:16 am
If D is let say a property owner, with a duty to P as an invitee, and X a robber comes onto D's property and takes a wad of cash from P, or otherwise causes economic harm to P, but no emotional or physical harm.
Assuming D had a duty and was the proximate cause, is this pure economic harm, where generally D would have no duty to protect against?
How do you analyze such a situation?
