Answer:

A- Compensatory Damages.

Step-by-step explanation:

A tort is an act or omission that incurred in an injury or harm to the other which is liable to the party who committed the civil wrong.

Tort laws' purpose is to provide relief to the injured parties for the harms caused by the other. Typically they request it in the form of compensatory damage.

Compensatory damages seek to compensate for damages caused by the negligence or misconduct of one party to the other. To receive this type of compensation it is crucial to prove the responsibility that the party has about harming the other.

I hope this answer helps you.
