Emmy worked late nights at a convenience store. One night, Emmy discovered that the ""emergency alert"" security system was not working. The owner of the store told her that he would have the system repaired immediately. Nevertheless, a month went by before the system was repaired. In the meantime, the store was robbed while Emmy was working and, in the course of the robbery, the perpetrator broke Emmy's leg. Under these circumstances, if Emmy presses charges, she is most likely to recover from the store owner "A. for negligence because the harm was foreseeable. B for battery because his inaction was the reason for her injury. C. for intentional tort. D. only for emotional distress.

The correct answer is letter "A": for negligence because the harm was foreseeable.

Explanation:

In Law, foreseeability is a concept related to what the proximate causes could be after an event. The concept is helpful to determine the limit of liability according to the primary event that happened and the type and manner of harm. The harm caused by rescuers like firefighters and negligence of health care providers like doctors and nurses is considered foreseeable.

In Emmy's case, the repeated thefts to the store where she works while having a nonfunctioning alarm (negligence) make the store owner liable for the injuries caused by a perpetrator who broke Emmy's leg during a robbery since that event was foreseeable.
