Always provide specific examples to support your main points, including, but not limited to, where appropriate: specific theories, materials, lectures, discussions, etc. In all questions, make sure that you 1) discuss 2) analyze and 3) reach conclusions on all legal issues; DO NOT assume that there is just oneanswer or a win-lose situation; instead, MAKE SURE that you talk about every possibility that you can think of as long as it answers the question. If it answers the question, you could get credit for it if it is in your exam essay; if it is not in your exam essay and stays in your head, you will definitely not get credit for it.

Kenji tells next door neighbor Aklilu, a movie star, that Kenji is going to punch Aklilu. Kenji then punches Aklilu, and locks Aklilu in a closet, and then tells everyone in the neighborhood that, in Kenji's opinion, Aklilu is a terrible criminal and was recently sentenced to 10 years in prison. After emergency responders release Aklilu from the closet, the lies cause Aklilu to quit acting in Aklilu's movie contract and begin seeing a therapist due to anxiety. Aklilu is now 500 miles away from Kenji, but Kenji sends text messages to Aklilu saying that Kenji is going to punch Anklilu again within the next five minutes. Aklilu goes to Pippi's coffee shop to relax but slips in the coffee puddle on the floor and breaks an ankle. Pippi had disobeyed regulations to dry wet floors. Aklilu limps behind the cash register but falls in grease and breaks the other ankle. Deion comes into the shop to ask for donations to a local charity and slips in the same coffee puddle and breaks a leg. The coffee was especially hazardous, containing nuclear waste that spilled from a cup designed by Aklilu and which causes everyone in the city to get sick. Aklilu goes insane and hides all of Pippi's coffee cups, which Pippi had actually stolen from a competitor. Identify and discuss all torts, making sure to explain whether there is liability for each tort and why or why not.
