MBE Torts Masterclass: The Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress.

This video provides overview of Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress tailored for students preparing for the Multistate Bar Exam (MBE). The materials break down the four essential elements of the tort: a reckless or intentional mental state, extreme and outrageous conduct, causation, and severe distress. The content emphasizes that ordinary rudeness is insufficient for a legal claim, requiring instead behavior that exceeds all bounds of civilized decency. Key "amplifiers" that help identify successful exam answers are highlighted, including abuses of power, repeated harassment, and the targeting of a known vulnerability. Additionally, the video clarifies how IIED differs from other intentional torts and explains the specific criteria for bystander claims. These resources aim to help learners distinguish between merely unpleasant facts and the high legal threshold required for actionable liability.
