Not to be confused with Civil offence or Municipal offense.
A civil wrong or wrong is a cause of action under the law of the governing body. Tort,[1] breach of contract[2] and breach of trust[3][4] are types of civil wrong.
Something that amounts to a civil wrong is said to be wrongful.
A wrong involves the violation of a right because wrong and right are complementary terms.[5]
A statement that an act complained of is legally wrongful as regards the party complaining implicitly includes a statement that the act complained of prejudicially affects the party complaining in some legal right.[6]
The law that relates to civil wrongs is part of the branch of the law that is called the civil law.[7]
A civil wrong is capable of being followed by what are called civil proceedings.[8]
It is a misnomer to describe a civil wrong as a "civil offence".[9]
The law of England recognised the concept of a "wrong" before it recognised the distinction between civil wrongs and crimes (which distinction was developed during the thirteenth century).[10]
