Defences To Liability

Defences to Liability is a legal doctrine within the common law framework of occupiers' liability that comprises specific justifications or excuses recognized by courts to absolve or limit an occupier’s duty of care toward individuals injured on premises, distinguishing it from general tort defences by its contextual application to possession, control, and warning of premises-related risks.
