DAMAGES / RESPONSABILITÉ CIVILE 33

DAMAGES

In most civil litigation cases, the plaintiff seeks some kind of recompense for the injury suf-

fered. An entire area of law has developed around the awarding of damages and numerous

types of awards have developed within this area (e.g., liquidated or unliquidated; general, exem-

plary, pecuniary, and punitive). This is an area largely grounded in caselaw but informed by

various rules of court. Related topics: CIVIL PROCEDURE, REMEDIES & RESTITUTION.
