A quick definition of damnum sine injuria:

Damnum Sine Injuria: This is a Latin term that means "damage without wrongful act". It refers to a situation where someone suffers harm or loss, but there is no legal remedy because the harm was not caused by a wrongful act. For example, if a business loses customers due to fair competition, they cannot sue the competitor for damages because the competition was not wrongful. This term is also known as "absque injuria damnum" or "absque injuria". It is important to note that not all harm or loss is considered wrongful and can be compensated by law.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Damnum sine injuria (dam-nəm sI-nee in-joor-ee-ə or sin-ay) is a Latin term that means "damage without wrongful act." It refers to a loss or harm that occurs from something other than a wrongful act and does not provide any legal remedy.

For example, if a business loses customers due to fair competition from another business, it is considered damnum sine injuria. The loss of customers is not a result of any wrongful act, and therefore, the business cannot seek legal action against the competitor.

Another example is if a person's property is damaged due to a natural disaster like a hurricane or earthquake. The damage is not caused by anyone's wrongful act, and therefore, the person cannot seek legal action against anyone.

The concept of damnum sine injuria is important in the legal system because not all losses or harms can be compensated for through legal action. Some losses are simply a result of natural or fair circumstances, and the law cannot provide a remedy for them.
