A tort is a civil wrong that causes harm to another person by violating a protected right. A civil wrong is an act or omission that is intentional, accidental, or negligent, other than a breach of contract. The specific rights protected give rise to the unique “elements” of each tort.

Tort law may also be contrasted with contract law, which provides civil remedies after breach of a duty that arises from a contract. Obligations in both tort and criminal law are more fundamental and are imposed regardless of whether the parties have a contract.
Tort law may be centrally concerned with “common morality,” rather than promoting the welfare of society at large. 26 But torts are not relational legal wrongs, and their purpose is not to recognize or redress relational moral wrongs.
