Chapter 6 - On page 141, write a brief paper on the discussion question.  Must be at least 800 words on the topic of "Are most accidents and injuries covered by tort law?" and "Why or why not?"  This assignment is directly related to the objective regarding the category of negligence Torts and you should discuss the elements of negligence torts.  It would be a good idea to discuss at least some defenses to negligence torts, as well.  

Also, do case question #2 on page 141, Newsom v. Thalhimer Brothers, 901 S.Wd.2d 365, Ct. App., Tenn. (1994).  Here is a link to the case.  You may have to copy and paste some of the links I give you:  https://law.justia.com/cases/tennessee/court-of-appeals/1994/901-s-w-2d-365-2.html  Answer the question thoroughly about whether or not the Plaintiff had a case for false imprisonment and tell me why or why not.  Remember, these cases thoroughly discuss the subject matter and there is a correct answer.  You can certainly express your opinion about whether or not the answer that the court came up with was justified, but when you discuss what the court held, then tell me that and tell me why they held as they did.  This case is a good discussion of intentional torts and their impact on business.
