• A. Intentional Torts
• B. Unintentional Torts
• C. Negligence
• D. Civil Tort

Answer: (A)

These are intentional torts. A tort is a civil wrong, and intentional torts occur when someone acts with the purpose of bringing about harmful or offensive contact or an invasion of another person’s rights. Assault, battery, and false imprisonment involve deliberate acts that cause or threaten harm or interference with a person’s liberty. Fraud is about knowingly misrepresenting facts. Invasion of privacy and defamation (including slander) involve intentional intrusion or false statements meant to harm someone’s reputation. Because the defining feature is deliberate action to cause that harm or intrusion, this set fits under intentional torts. Unintentional torts describe harm caused by negligence or accident, not by purposeful actions. Negligence is a specific form of unintentional tort focusing on failure to exercise reasonable care. Civil Tort is a broad term for private wrongs in civil law and can cover both intentional and unintentional torts, but the examples given are all classically categorized as intentional torts.
