Question: 1 / 400

What is the defense associated with the crime/tort of slip and fall?

Comparative negligence

The defense associated with the crime/tort of slip and fall is known as comparative negligence. This means that the responsibility for the injury is shared between the one who fell and the owner of the property where the fall occurred. The other options, misuse, assault, and alibi, do not relate to the concept of comparative negligence and are therefore incorrect. Misuse refers to using something in a way that it was not intended, assault is a threat or attempt to harm someone, and alibi is a defense that a person was in a different place at the time the crime was committed.
