The tort of torture
François Larocque
Tort Law Review
Volume 17, Number 3, November 2009    p.158 LAW JOURNAL / LAW REVIEW
This article proposes the judicial recognition of a new nominate tort of torture at common law. More specifically, it calls for the creation of a new cause of action in tort based in part on the internationally defined prohibition of torture and on a novel form of trespass or, alternatively, on the well-established tort of misfeasance in public office. Such a development would not only have the benefit of providing an analytical framework for civil actions with respect to torture, but would also allow litigants and courts to squarely address the normative specificities of torture on their own terms, rather than by forced analogy to existing categories, such as assault and battery. It is argued that the common law’s historical revulsion from torture as well as the peremptory prohibition of torture at international law compel the fashioning of a correspondingly distinct cause of action for the purpose of civil liability. It is also conceivable that a new misfeasance-inspired tort of torture might profitably recast the state immunity issue in more familiar terms for domestic courts, thereby perhaps allowing a fresh approach to the State Immunity Act in Canada.
