tortious breaches (acts & omissions)
Explanation:
'Blameworthy course of conduct' is singular and may not fit as well, plus blameworthy need not necessarily imply being nailed with liability. Also 'for which the buyer may be held accountable' is long-winded.


(Acts of) mal-, mis- and non-feasance refers to acts committed in a public or corporate office or mis-performing a legal act in an unlawful way i.e. London Bus drivers and conductors thumping passengers.
