In New Jersey, a man was criminally charged for several offenses for allegedly coughing on a food store employee and telling her she had coronavirus. A news release from the Office of the Attorney General of New Jersey provided details about this incident, which occurred on Sunday, March 22, 2020, at Wegmans, a supermarket. There, the man had been asked by a store employee to maintain some social distance and step back, as he was too close to the employee who was handling some food. Allegations provide that, instead, the man stepped forward, leaned in, purposely coughed, laughed, and told the employee that he was infected with coronavirus. Allegedly, he also later told two other store employees that they were lucky to have jobs.Assume the allegations are true. Does the first store employee have a viable tort claim against the man? If so, what cause(s) of action could the employee potentially argue?(Focus on tort law, not criminal law)
