Question
Which of the following is not a tort that affects economic interest?
A. Detinue
B. Conversion
C. Passing off
D. Deceit
E. Bailment
Answer
Answer: E
Explanation: The correct answer is E, “Bailment.” Bailment refers to a legal relationship where physical possession of personal property is transferred from one person to another, but it is not a tort affecting economic interest. The other options, such as detinue, conversion, passing off, and deceit, are torts that directly relate to property or economic interest.
Rundown: The selected answer “E” was chosen because bailment is a legal concept regarding the transfer of possession of goods but does not involve an economic tort. The other listed options pertain to tortious actions affecting economic interests.
