Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a nuisance case, the court will weigh the harm caused to the plaintiff versus the benefit of the defendant's conduct. If the harm caused to the plaintiff is greater than the benefit of the defendant's conduct, the court is likely to award an injunction to stop the defendant's conduct. Therefore, if the pollution from the gravel pit is causing more harm to Sid than the benefit Rock is receiving from operating the pit, the court is likely to award Sid an injunction to stop the operation of the pit.
