Utah Nominal damages are a type of non-compensatory damages awarded by a court when a legal wrong has been committed, but the plaintiff has not suffered any quantifiable financial losses. They are usually awarded in cases of breach of contract, civil torts, or when a court finds a defendant liable, but the plaintiff is not entitled to any compensatory damages.
