Texas Intentional Tort Claims including Molestation Claims, Rape Claims, and Sexual Assault Claims

An intentional tort arises when a person intends to commit a wrongful act such as sexual assault or molestation which results in injury.  From a legal perspective, it can often be difficult to obtain compensation from a person who commits an intentional tort unless that person is wealthy.  This is because most insurance policies do not cover intentional wrongful acts such as sexual assault or molestation.  Further, most sexual predators do not have money or resources to pay compensation to their victims.

However, sometimes the injuries from a sexual molestation or sexual assault result from the wrongful acts of more than one party.  An example of this would be when a private school, church, community center, or daycare center has a duty to provide proper supervision of its premises and staff to make sure that the children in their care are safe from harm.  If the church, private school, community center, or daycare center hires or allows a person that has a history of molestation or sexual assault to be around children, they may have violated their duty to protect children and negligently allowed a sexual assault or molestation to occur.  Similarly, if a homeowner is taking care of someone else's child and allows someone with a history of sexual or violence with children, there may be a potential claim under homeowner's insurance, if the homeowner negligently allows the sexual predator to be alone with the child.   Further, if the church, private school, community center, or daycare center allows strangers to access the premises or does not adequately screen or supervise its employees, and a child is molested as a result of the private school's, church's or daycare center's lack of care, the negligent conduct may support a legal cause of action for negligence.

Common intentional torts include sexual molestation, sexual assault, rape, battery, and child abuse. Many of these intentional torts will support a sexual molestation lawsuit or sexual assault lawsuit if the criminal is wealthy or if other parties are negligent in allowing the sexual predator to be alone with children in their care.

Texas Indecency with a Minor and Indecent Exposure Law Suits

In addition to sexual assault and molestation lawsuits, the Internet has created an environment where sexual predators can indecently exposure themselves to minors.  If you have electronic proof that a person has intentionally indecently exposed themselves to a minor, it is important to contact the authorities as to the criminal act.  If the sexual predator that did this has significant assets, it also may be worth it to file a civil indecent exposure law suit against this person.  If the person does not have assets, but is living with someone that has significant assets and has provided the sexual predator with access to a computer, there also may be a potential claim against the person who allowed the indecent exposure to occur.
