Question 2

The element of damages is the same for conversion and trespass to chattels.

Accepted Answer

Conversion involves the wrongful exercise of dominion over the personal property of another, effectively depriving them of their rights to the property, often requiring full value compensation. Trespass to chattels involves interference with another's right to use and enjoy their personal property but does not necessarily deprive them of possession, typically resulting in compensation for actual damages or loss of use, not the full value of the property.
