Causation Seminar Questions., Quizzes of Law of Torts

University of LiverpoolLaw of Torts

The Causation Seminar Questions document is part of the Law of Tort course (LAW209) for the 2024-25 academic year. It focuses on causation in fact and causation in law in negligence cases. The reading list includes key cases like Bonnington Castings v Wardlaw and Fairchild v Glenhaven Funeral Services, alongside academic articles exploring causation principles. The seminar tasks involve answering warm-up questions on topics such as the ‘but for’ test, material contribution to damage, and indivisible injuries. Additionally, students are presented with problem questions requiring analysis of causation issues in hypothetical scenarios, such as workplace exposure to harmful chemicals and multiple injury claims. This seminar enhances understanding of complex causation and remoteness of damage in tort law.
