In this video, you should consider the following:

• This is your big picture on Negligence. Always remember duty, breach, causation [“but for” and “foreseeable”] and damages.
• You will see “special types” of negligence, but they all still encompass the same prima facie case, it is just that some elements may be presumed:
  • Landowner Duties: defines different duties of care.
  • Negligence Per Se: established duty and breach within a certain class of person/class of risk.
  • Res Ipsa Loquitor: This means that the consequences had to be a result of the defendant’s negligence, but the plaintiff still needs to establish certain factors.
• You should come back to this segment throughout this video series, so you can see how all of the elements are needed.
