Defamation is the term for a statement that damages another person's reputation. Slander and written libel are both regarded as types of the tort of defamation (spoken statements).

Defamation cases are governed by state common law and statutory law, and each state has different definitions of defamation and possible damages.

Thus, Option C is correct.

<h3>Is defamation a crime in the UK?</h3>

Defamation is a civil case in the UK, and if successful, a judge may grant the plaintiff a sizable financial reward.

Criminal defamation laws are still in place in several nations. To show the rest of the world that the offense was superfluous in today's legal system, the UK repealed the offenses.
