Mary and Chaz have a 15-month-old daughter, Abigail. They wanted to go out for date night, so they asked their neighbor, an 18-year-old female named Barbara, to babysit Abigail for the evening. Two years ago, when she was age 16, Barbara was charged with assault, but Mary and Chaz did not know that. At 10:00 pm, after being gone for four hours, Mary and Chaz came home and found Barbara watching TV while Abigail, who had wreaked havoc throughout their apartment (strewing cereal from a box, dirt from some potted plants, and toys from her room), was now sitting in the kitchen with a couple spilt juice cups and drinking dishwasher soap from a cabinet she reached by climbing up using three chairs she had stacked atop one another.  Mary and Chaz immediately called poison control, and Abigail had to be taken to the hospital for emergency surgery, costing tens of thousands of dollars. Mary and Chaz decided to take Barbara to court, claiming over $35,000 in damages. Would Mary and Chaz likely win this case, and what type of case is this?
