The aim of damages protecting the reliance interest is, according to Fuller and Perdue, ‘… to put the plaintiff in as good a position as he was in before the promise was made’. This can alternatively and preferably be expressed as aiming to put the claimant into as good a position as she would have been in if no contract had been made.","PeriodicalId":273138,"journal":{"name":"Remedies for Torts, Breach of Contract, and Equitable Wrongs","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115672560","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Where the claimant’s actual position has been, or will be, improved by benefits acquired subsequent to and as a result of the tort or breach of contract, one might expect (in accordance with the compensatory aims) that such benefits would be taken into account—if they are ignored the claimant will be left in a better position than if the contract had been performed or if no tort had been committed. In a nutshell, one might expect ‘compensating advantages’ to be deducted or, as it is sometimes alternatively expressed, that losses mitigated would not be compensated. But in fact compensating advantages are often not deducted. Our concern here is to indicate when this is so.","PeriodicalId":273138,"journal":{"name":"Remedies for Torts, Breach of Contract, and Equitable Wrongs","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134324093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Equitable wrongs are civil wrongs that historically were developed in the Court of Chancery.

One example is the continued distinction between common law and equitable wrongs. In a rational fused system, nothing should turn on whether a civil wrong is common law or equitable. But that is not the present law.","PeriodicalId":273138,"journal":{"name":"Remedies for Torts, Breach of Contract, and Equitable Wrongs","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127715601","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Loss of reputation 名誉损失

But often mental distress consequent on loss of reputation is not clearly separated from the award for loss of reputation itself. Indeed on an alternative view, alternative to that traditionally taken by the courts, all non-pecuniary loss, including loss of reputation, is ultimately regarded as a loss only in terms of the distress or loss of happiness caused to the claimant. However, where a claimant complains of a loss of reputation she is generally concerned not only about loss of reputation itself, but also and often primarily about the pecuniary loss flowing from it and both will be considered.","PeriodicalId":273138,"journal":{"name":"Remedies for Torts, Breach of Contract, and Equitable Wrongs","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129859964","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nominal and contemptuous damages and declarations 名义上和藐视法庭的损害赔偿和声明

But torts actionable per se, as well as breach of contract, are actionable without proof of damage. One consequence is that even though the court is satisfied that the claimant has not suffered any damage, it is still entitled to damages for the defendant’s breach of contract or tort actionable per se. Such damages are termed nominal and they comprise a trivial sum of money, usually about £2–£10. Nominal damages are therefore in no sense compensatory and must be distinguished from a small sum of compensatory damages. Their function is merely to declare that the defendant has committed a wrong against the claimant and hence that the claimant’s rights have been infringed. Given that the remedy of a declaration is specifically designed to serve this purpose, nominal damages are superfluous and could happily be abolished. This is particularly so since what was previously an important practical consequence of an award of nominal damages has been removed by Devlin J’s decision in Anglo-Cyprian Trade Agencies v Paphos Wine Industries Ltd that a claimant awarded nominal damages should not necessarily be regarded as a successful claimant for the purposes of costs.","PeriodicalId":273138,"journal":{"name":"Remedies for Torts, Breach of Contract, and Equitable Wrongs","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130066867","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is principally because the common law traditionally set itself against awards of interest and this has resulted in the piecemeal intervention of statutes which allow the award of interest in specific situations. In the leading modern case of Sempra Metals Ltd v IRC the House of Lords reformed the common law as regards awards of interest as compensatory damages for a tort or breach of contract (although the part of the decision that was concerned with interest as restitution of an unjust enrichment, which was the direct claim in question, was overruled by the Supreme Court in Prudential Assurance Co Ltd v HMRC). Sempra Metals was concerned with an award of compound interest (as damages or as restitution) which contrasts with the relevant statutes which allow awards of simple interest only.","PeriodicalId":273138,"journal":{"name":"Remedies for Torts, Breach of Contract, and Equitable Wrongs","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133612207","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
