Attorney General (1972) E. A 335}{\fs24\insrsid13702191\charrsid12387405 . That was a case of false imprisonment. It is both good sense and good law that such a tort is a cont inuing tort. Each day the plaintiff spends in false imprisonment gives rise to a fresh cause of action. But perhaps the most common example of this is a continuing nuisance. In these cases the right of action accrues a fresh everyday, but damages can b e recovered only for that apart of the loss which arose within the relevant period before the filing of the plaint. In cases of false imprisonment the plea of Limitation Act prevents the recovery of so much of the false imprisonment as took place outside the time permitted by the Limitation Act. This is what the case of DIFASI (supra) says. \par It is remarkable that there is no express authority on the point under discussion, and the fact that the respondent is now raising it for the first time is clear proof of the ingenuity of his lawyer. \par \par I propose therefore to examine a few cases touching on subsidence of premises where the question of continuity has been urged and cases involving personal injuries that were unknown at the time they occurred and of which pl aintiffs were not conscious when they did occur. By drawing an alogy from these cases I hope to arrive at the justice of this case. \par But first we may ask why the law of Limitation of actions? \par The learned authors of }{\b\fs24\insrsid3494495\charrsid3494495 Salmond & Heuston}{\fs24\insrsid3494495\charrsid12387405 }{\fs24\insrsid13702191\charrsid12387405 on the Law of Tort 21}{\fs24\super\insrsid13702191\charrsid12387405 st}{ \fs24\insrsid13702191\charrsid12387405 edition at page 558 state: \par \par }\pard \s17\qj \li720\ri0\sl360\slmult1\widctlpar\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin720\itap0\pararsid12387405 {\fs24\insrsid13702191\charrsid12387405 \'93 The Public Policy behind the statute of Limitation has been clear since 1603.

Another Act wa s passed in 1980 and section 33 of the 1980 Act, gives court a discretion to allow plaintiff to bring an action for personal injuries, not withstanding that the time Limited by section 11 and 12 of the Act has expired, if it appears to the court that it wo u ld be equitable to do having regard to the degree to which section 11 and 12 of the Act prejudice the plaintiff, or any person whom he presents and the degree to which any decision under this section would prejudice the defendant, or any person whom he pr esents. \par \par In our country there appears to be Legislative somnolence in this area of the law.
