Foreseebility

Foreseebility in United States

Foreseebility 

The modern determination of a negligent tort is dependant upon the foreseeability of the tort arising from the defendants conduct. That is, whether a reasonably prudent person would be able to foresee that their conduct would result in damage to the plaintiff.
