(b) That's wrong.

You were asked to select the incorrect statement.

It is true that property law is relevant to the dispute between Jason and Bruce over the ownership of the bicycle. 

It is also correct to say that tort law is relevant when Belinda leaves her lawnmower unattended in her front garden and a neighbour’s child is injured when he tries to play with it. 

The law of agency is most relevant to the case in which Frank asks Debra to go to an auction sale and bid on his behalf to buy a cow he wants.  

It is not correct to say that property law is the relevant area of law to the case of Andrew stealing $100 from a wallet that Benjamin has left lying on the desk in the office they share.   The most relevant area of law here would be criminal law.
