Inducing someone to break a contract with a third party is tortious conduct. True or false

Answer: The correct answer is True.

Explanation:

Tortious conduct is also known as tortious interference. This occurs when a person or group interferes with a contract of another person that will cause financial harm.

A third party can convince someone to leave a deal right before the deal is legally bound. The third party can offer incentives to the group or person to leave that deal. This can also happen during a sale of goods or property when the person or group has not yet signed the papers but are in the last stages of negotiation.

The most common form of tortious conduct is when a person uses blackmail, offers a lower price, or refuses to transport goods to get someone to break their contract with the third party. If there is enough proof of this, a judge can determine if there was tortious conduct.
