Nam quod remedio destituitur, ipsa re valet, si culpa absit

Nam quod remedio destituitur, ipsa re valet, si culpa absit
For that which lacks a remedy is the stronger by reason of that very fact, if it is without fault. Quoting Lord Bacon, Blackstone says, "The benignity of the law is such, as when, to preserve the principles and grounds of law, it depriveth a man of his remedy without his own fault, it will rather put him in a better degree and condition than in a worse." See 3 Bl Comm 20.
