A quick definition of property tort:

A property tort is when someone does something to damage or interfere with someone else's property without permission. This can include going onto someone's land without asking, touching or using someone else's things without permission, or taking something that belongs to someone else and not giving it back. It's like breaking the rules of sharing and respecting other people's things.

A more thorough explanation:

A property tort is a type of legal wrong that involves damage to someone's property. It occurs when one person unlawfully interferes with another person's right to enjoy their private property. Property torts are different from personal torts because they involve property rights rather than personal rights.

  • Trespass on land: This occurs when someone enters another person's land without permission. For example, if someone walks onto your property without your permission, they are committing a trespass on your land.
  • Trespass to chattels: This happens when someone handles or uses items that belong to another person without their permission. For example, if someone takes your bike without your permission, they are committing a trespass to chattels.
  • Conversion: This occurs when someone takes possession of another person's property with the intent of not returning it. For example, if someone takes your car and refuses to give it back, they are committing conversion.

These examples illustrate how property torts involve interference with someone's property rights. They show how someone's property can be damaged or taken without their permission, which can cause harm and financial loss.
