Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

The essentials of tort are that "There must be a wrongful act or omission", that the "Wrongful act or omission must result in legal damage to another" and that "The wrongful act or omission must be of such nature as to give rise to legal remedy"; the requirement that the "Wrongful act or omission must have nexus with privity of contract" is not an essential, as privity of contract has no role in tort.
