dr. bob gives patty wrong medicine. when she finds out,before taking the medicine,she's outraged! she sues for negligence. what element is missing from her claim?
1-duty
2-breach
3-causation
4-damages.
i am thinking causation but not sure. need help!
thanks.
John K
both causation and damages are missing.
hah
damages,,,being mad is not damage...and it is not rewarded by money in court...I am sure on this.
Kevin C
damages obviously
Lawnboy & Luna
Damages, at least none that she can prove. For a defendant to be held liable, it must be shown that the particular acts or omissions were the cause of the loss or damage sustained. While there are no damages, the potential cause would have been the dispensing of incorrect medication.

Both causation and damages - first poster has it correct.
