IIED
Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress
故意导致受害人的情绪困扰
The key testable elements for intentional infliction of emotional distress (“IIED”) are:
I. An act by the defendant amounting to extreme and outrageous conduct;
II. The plaintiff must suffer severe emotional distress, but physical injury is not required.
IIED构成要件是:
l. 被告的行为到达了极端且骇人的程度;
lI. 原告遭受了严重的情绪困扰, 但是并不要求身体上的伤害。
Extreme and Outrageous Conduct
极端且骇人的行为
Extreme and outrageous conduct refers to the conduct that is continuous in nature, that is committed by a certain type of defendant (common carriers or innkeepers may be liable even for mere gross insults), or that is directed toward a certain type of plaintiff (children, elderly persons, someone who is pregnant, supersensitive adults if the sensitivities are known to defendant).
极端且骇人的行为是指该行为本身具有持续性,由特定类型的被告实施(普通承运人或旅店老板对无礼的辱骂承担责任),或直接针对特定类型的原告(儿童、老人、孕妇、敏感性被被告所知的极度敏感的成年人)
Conduct Acted at Third Person
针对第三人的行为
When the defendant’s conduct is directed at a third person, and the plaintiff suffers severe emotional distress because of it, the plaintiff must show that they were present when the injury occurred; that the distress resulted in bodily harm or that the plaintiff is a close relative of the third person; and that the defendant knew these facts.
当被告的行为是针对第三人的,原告因此而遭受严重情绪困扰的,原告需要证明在伤害发生时原告是在场的;这种困扰导致身体伤害或者原告是第三人的近亲属;并且被告就此情况是明知的。
