🎧 EPISODE SUMMARY 🎧
Comparative fault reduces recovery according to the governing pure or modified system; contributory negligence traditionally imposes a complete bar. Assumption of risk requires careful attention to agreement, knowledge, voluntariness, duty, and merger into comparative responsibility. Mitigation concerns unreasonable avoidable loss after injury. Compensation requires proof of legally attributable economic and noneconomic harm, while nominal and punitive damages serve different purposes and have separate prerequisites. A complete torts answer identifies a theory, proves its elements through facts, considers alternatives and defenses, and calculates the recoverable consequences for each responsible defendant.
