The Law of Torts
The tort of wrongful dealing with another's goods.
Trespass to land and wrongful dealing with goods by trespass, “conversion,” or otherwise are torts.
Historical anomaly of law of trespass and conversion.
Whatever may or might be the case in other legal systems, the intention to violate another’s rights, or even the knowledge that one is violating them, is not in English law necessary to constitute the wrong of trespass as regards either land or goods, or of conversion as regards goods.
