A quick definition of nul tort:

Term: nul tort

Definition: Nul tort means "no wrong" in Law French. It is a type of general denial used in legal cases where someone is trying to recover land or property. When a defendant uses nul tort, they are claiming that they did not do anything wrong. This plea is called the general issue because it denies the entire claim without offering any specific defense. It is used in real actions, such as nul disseisin (no dispossession) and writ of right (tenant has more right to hold than the demandant has to demand).

A more thorough explanation:

Nul tort is a type of general denial used in legal cases where someone is trying to recover land or property. It comes from the Law French phrase "no wrong." When someone uses nul tort, they are claiming that they did not do anything wrong and should not be held responsible for the damages or losses the other party is claiming.

For example, if someone sues their neighbor for cutting down trees on their property without permission, the neighbor might use nul tort as a defense. They would argue that they did not do anything wrong and did not damage the other person's property.

In another example, if a landlord is being sued by a tenant for not making necessary repairs to the rental property, the landlord might use nul tort as a defense. They would argue that they did not do anything wrong and that the tenant's claims are unfounded.

These examples illustrate how nul tort is used as a defense in legal cases to deny any wrongdoing and avoid being held responsible for damages or losses.
