    TORTS 3D: LIABILITY FOR PHYSICAL AND

                           EMOTIONAL HARM




        CHAPTER 1.   INTENT,   RECKLESSNESS, AND NEGLIGENCE: DEFINITIONS

§ 1. Intent

Idaho, 2016. Quot. in ftn. Estate and family of miner who was killed when a mine tunnel collapsed sued
owner and operator of the mine, alleging that defendant's decision to remove a pillar from the mining
area constituted sufficiently egregious conduct that permitted plaintiffs to pursue their claims outside of
the state workers' compensation statute. The trial court granted summary judgment for defendant.
Affirming, this court held that plaintiffs failed to show that defendant's conduct amounted to willful or
unprovoked physical aggression under an exception to the statute's exclusivity provision. The court
noted that willful physical aggression required a finding of specific intent to harm, in contrast to the
definition of intent used in the common law of intentional torts and Restatement Third of Torts
Liability for Physical and Emotional Harm § 1, under which intent could be found if the person acted
either with the purpose of producing a consequence or knowing that the consequence was substantially
certain to result. Marek v. Hecla, Limited, 384 P.3d 975, 982.



       CHAPTER 3.   THE   NEGLIGENCE DOCTRINE AND NEGLIGENCE LIABILITY

§ 7. Duty

Ariz.App.2016. Cit. in ftn. Motorcyclist brought a negligence action against company that was granted
a permit by the U.S. Forest Service to graze cattle on certain federally owned land, after he collided with
an electric fence that defendant had erected in accordance with the terms of its permit. The trial court
granted defendant's motion for summary judgment. This court reversed and remanded, holding that,
under Restatement Second of Torts § 386, defendant, as a permittee operating on federal land, owed a
duty of care to the public when it erected improvements on the land. The court noted that because it
concluded that it should follow § 386, it did not need to reach plaintiff s argument that it should adopt
Restatement Third of Torts: Liability for Physical and Emotional Harm § 7. Johnson v. Almida Land &
Cattle Company, LLC, 383 P.3d 673, 674.

Ariz.App.2016. Cit. in cases quot. in disc.; subsec. (a) quot. but not fol. Son of employee brought a
claim for negligence against employer, alleging that he contracted mesothelioma from asbestos brought
home  on employee's work clothes. The trial court granted summary judgment for employer. Affirming,
this court held, among other things, that employer was not liable to son under Restatement Third of
Torts: Liability for Physical and Emotional Harm § 54, which imposed a duty of reasonable care on
possessors of land for artificial conditions or conduct on the land that posed a risk of physical harm to
persons or property not on the land. The court declined to apply § 54, explaining that § 54 was a special
