Answer to Question 1

Proximate cause is applied to negligence lawsuits during legal proceedings to demonstrate that there was some type of connection between the actions of the defendants and the injuries sustained by the plaintiff.

Answer to Question 2

Examples of situations where a landowner would provide a doctrine of support to someone else who has been using their property are for a right of way for travel across the property; to temporarily store materials; for extracting minerals, oil, or water; and for logging trees.
