In court, James and Eric would be considered what?

  1. A joint tortfeasor

  2. The plaintiffs

  3. An intentional tort

  4. A tortfeasor

The correct answer is: A joint tortfeasor

James and Eric would be considered joint tortfeasors in court because they both committed a tortious act that resulted in harm to another person. Option B is incorrect as plaintiffs are the individuals bringing a case to the court for a civil action. Option C is incorrect because an intentional tort refers to a deliberate wrongful act, while option D is incorrect as a tortfeasor is a person who commits a tort, but not necessarily with another person.
