Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Compensatory damages are intended to place the nonbreaching party in the same position as if the contract had been fully performed. They provide compensation for the actual damages and losses suffered as a result of the breach. Tort damages and consequential damages go beyond compensating for actual losses and are not always available in contract cases. Nominal damages are only symbolic in nature and do not provide actual compensation for losses.
