A. Plan of the investigation In 1915, the Lusitania a British Ocean vessel used to ferry goods and people across the Atlantic sea between the America and Britain was torpedoed and ruined by the Germans using U-boats. The vessel was highly accredited for its speed competence and its comfortable and expensive accommodation, as well as marked as the world’s largest vessel. Before it was sunk, it had left for Liverpool from New York and there were 1,959 persons on board, among them 159 Americans. During this period, the ocean passage had become perilous since the Germans, Americans and British attacked one another in the waters hoping to prevent war materials getting through. This resulted to the sinking of Lusitania ship when the Germans invaded the British waters with their submarines and hit the ship near Southern Ireland coast at Kinsale. As a result, this enraged and triggered the United State into entrance the World War 1.

...A. Torts 1. Compensatory and Punitive Damages Tort law involves civil liability between private parties. A plaintiff who wins a tort suit usually recovers the actual damages or compensatory damages that she suffered because of the tort. Depending on the facts of the case, these damages may be for direct and immediate harms, such as physical injuries, medical expenses, and lost pay and benefits, or for harms as intangible as loss of privacy, injury to reputation, and emotional distress. In cases where the defendant’s behavior is particularly bad, injured victims may also be able to recover punitive damages. Punitive damages are not intended to compensate tort victims for their losses. Instead, they are designed to punish flagrant wrongdoers and to deter them and others from engaging in similar conduct in the future. Theoretically, therefore, punitive damages are reserved for the worst kinds of wrongdoing. Punitive damages have always been controversial, but they have grown more so in recent years due to the size of some punitive damage awards and the perception that juries are awarding them in situations where they are not justified. 2. Negligence Defenses The common law traditionally recognized two defenses to negligence: contributory negligence and assumption of risk. In many states, however, one or both of these traditional defenses has been superseded by new defenses called comparative negligence and comparative fault. Contributory negligence is the plaintiff’s...
