What type of legal action is a 'Rescission' remedy available in?

Tort
Contract
Criminal
All of the above

The correct answer is: Contract

Rescission is a remedy available in contract law. In a contract, if one party fails to fulfill their obligations or makes a false representation, the other party may seek rescission of the contract, which essentially cancels the contract and restores both parties to their pre-contractual position. This remedy is not available in tort or criminal law, which deal with different types of legal situations. Therefore, option A and C are incorrect. Option D is incorrect because rescission is not available in all types of legal actions, only in contract law.
