Which of the following is not a type of tort?

Malpractice is indeed a form of tort but it is more specifically categorized under negligence, focusing on professional misconduct or failure to exercise an appropriate standard of care by professionals. The other categories—intentional torts, negligence, and strict liability—are recognized classifications within tort law.

Intentional torts involve deliberate actions that cause harm to another person, such as assault or trespass. Negligence refers to harm caused by failing to act as a reasonably prudent person would, leading to accidents or injuries. Strict liability pertains to instances where a party is held liable for damages or harm regardless of fault or intent, typically in cases involving inherently dangerous activities or defective products.

Therefore, while malpractice fits within the broader category of negligence, it is not an independent type of tort in the same way that the others are structured within tort law.
