Whether conduct is satisfied in Amir’s delictual claim against Lalita

In the law of delict, conduct is the first element of a delict and refers to a voluntary
human act or omission (commission or omission). The enquiry is factual and focuses
on whether there was human behaviour capable of being controlled by the will (not
automatism), and whether that behaviour can be described as either a positive act or
a failure to act.1
