LLB LAW question

Hi guys i need help with law of tort question below:


In January 2009, Jenny visits an adventure theme park owned by Thrill
Enterprises Ltd, paying an admission charge which entitles her to unlimited
rides on all the attractions. She joins a long queue to ride on the ‘Gravity
Buster’. The queue enters a 100 metre tunnel at the end of which the
customers enter a car and are strapped in by Phil, the attendant. The car then
plummets down a deep shaft into darkness.
As she approaches the end of the queue, Jenny suffers a panic attack as she
hears the loud screams of those travelling on the ride. She refuses to enter
the car when it is her turn and tries to push her way through the crowd behind
her. Phil seizes her by the arm and tells her she cannot go back that way as
she is a danger to the other customers. Jenny demands to be let out and
struggles to free herself. Phil pushes her into a small storeroom, telling her
she will have wait until another attendant comes on duty. Phil will then take
her out through the staff exit.
After 45 minutes, the other attendant arrives. Phil escorts Jenny out through
the staff exit. Jenny is angry, distraught and has sustained severe bruises to
both arms as a result of her handling by Phil.
Consider the potential liability of Thrill Enterprises Ltd in trespass.

thanks in advance if you can help! :smile:
