    Solution

    It means that injury caused to a party without actually suffering any physical harm or damage. The injury pertains to the infringement of rights pertaining to a person. The meaning of the above maxim is the infringement of an absolute private right without any actual loss or damage. This was first established in the Gloucester grammar school case.
