What's your take on this — what experience or question can you share?
This Latin maxim is frequently cited, but how does it actually operate in modern law? Does it mean that courts must always provide a remedy where a right has been breached, or is it more of a guiding principle? How have courts applied this maxim in practice, and are there situations where they have declined to provide a remedy despite recognising a right?
