EngTort Misfeasance in publicoffice is a cause of action in the civil court s of England and Wales and certain Commonwealth of Nations Commonwealth countries. It is an action against the holder of a publicoffice, alleging in essence that the office holder has misused or abused his power. The tort can be traced back to 1703 when Chief Justice Holt decided that a landowner could sue a police Constable who deprived him of his right to vote. ref http www.telegraph.co.uk finance 2918771 The 300 year old beginnings of Byers day in court.html ref The tort was revived in 1985 when it was used so that French Turkey producers could sue the Ministry of Agriculture over a dispute that harmed their sales. Generally, a civil defendant will be liable for misfeasance if the defendant owed a duty of care toward the plaintiff, the defendant breached that duty of care by improperly performing a legal act, and the improper performance resulted in harm to the plaintiff. For example, assume that a janitor is cleaning a restroom in a restaurant. If he leaves the floor wet, he or his employer could be liable for any injuries resulting from the wet floor. This is because the janitor owed a duty of care toward users of the restroom, and he breached that duty by leaving the floor wet. In theory, misfeasance is distinct from Nonfeasance. Nonfeasance is a term that describes a failure to act that results ...
