Discussion boxes: business decision 4. 1 false imprisonment and detention by security guards, you be the judge 4. 1 trespass to land and injunctions, ethical perspective 4. 1 conversion and innocent purchasers. In the first edition, this chapter and the last chapter were pieced together into a single, large chapter dealing with introduction to torts and intentional torts. The combination was never comfortable, however, and we ultimately were persuaded by comments of reviewers and lecturers and that it would be better to present the two topics as separate chapters. Intentional torts consequently now stand alone in this chapter, in a somewhat expanded form. As noted in the text, canadian courts continue to struggle with the concept of invasion of privacy. The ontario court of appeal has held that there is no free-standing tort of that name, but lower courts clearly are moving in the direction of a new tort.
