Landlord Tenant Board LSO Licensing Practice Exam

Torts against property are civil wrongs that target the owner's rights in land or goods, rather than injuries to a person or reputation. The set that includes trespass to realty, private nuisance, trespass to personal property, and conversion lists classic property torts. Trespass to realty is entering or remaining on someone else’s land without permission; private nuisance is an unreasonable interference with the use or enjoyment of land; trespass to personal property (trespass to chattels) is intentional interference with another’s possession of movable property; conversion is a serious interference that treats someone’s property as if it were your own, effectively depriving them of its use.

The other choices involve torts protecting persons (assault, battery, false imprisonment), or defamation protecting reputation, or negligence which is a broader tort not specific to property. So the only option that groups true property torts is the one listed.
