Abstract
IT is said to be a tort for D intentionally to induce C to break C’s contract with P. Where this occurs, P has an action in tort against D, quite apart from P’s action for breach of contract against C. But the rationale for this tort is controversial, and its legitimacy has been doubted by a number of commentators.
