Definition of continuing harm
Continuing harm is a type of harm that persists over time. It is also known as continuing injury.
For example, if someone is exposed to toxic chemicals at work and develops a disease as a result, that is a continuing harm. The harm continues even after the exposure has ended.
Continuing harm can be physical, such as in the example above, or it can be emotional or psychological. For instance, if someone is the victim of ongoing harassment or discrimination, that is a continuing harm.
Continuing harm is important to understand because it may require ongoing legal action or medical treatment. It can also have a significant impact on a person's life and well-being.
The law is reason, free from passion.

Simple Definition
Continuing harm is when something bad keeps happening to someone over time. It's like a wound that doesn't heal or a problem that doesn't go away. This can be physical harm, like a cut that keeps getting infected, or emotional harm, like someone being mean to you every day. In the law, continuing harm is called continuing injury and it means that someone's rights are being violated and they need help to make it stop.
If the law is on your side, pound the law. If the facts are on your side, pound the facts. If neither the law nor the facts are on your side, pound the table.
