Abstract

The article discusses the process of interpreting pain in adjudication and reflects on the gap between rights and remedies in legal order. It examines legal cases originating from an acute instance of suffering and involving a tension between competing legal principles, one influencing in favor of redress and the other in favor of dismissal. The cases examined include Snyder v. Phelps, Brown v. Plata, and Connick v. Thompson.
