Detailed Solution for Bihar Judicial Services (Prelims Paper - II) Mock - 2 - Question 7
Damnum sine injuria is a latin term that literally means condemnation without injury. Simply translated, the term would mean legal injury with no damages. Damnum sine injuria refers to a legal situation in which plaintiff's right is not respected by another, but where the breach of plaintiff's right does not cause damage, or at least not a calculable or admissible damage. A finding of damnum sine injuria can be the basis for a finding of nominal damages. Thus, in cases of damnum sine injuria, the injury is de minimis i.e. too small to be remedied practically at the law. In such cases, the plaintiff will have a satisfaction remedy of nominal damages - which are also called symbolic damages. (a) and (c) are the acts which are covered under damnum sine injuria.
But, (b) and (d) are the acts where damages can be claimed because they cause injury as well as financial loss.
