Trespass Against the Person

Trespass against the person refers to legal actions that involve direct harm or the threat of harm to an individual. This includes acts like assault (attempting to harm someone), battery (causing actual physical harm), and false imprisonment (restricting someone's freedom of movement). These actions are considered wrongful and can lead to civil lawsuits or criminal charges. Essentially, it's a way to protect individuals from unwanted physical interference or aggression by others, ensuring personal safety and dignity under the law.
