1. A loss of money or of something by which money or something of money value may be acquired.\u00a0 Dow v Legg<\/em>, 120 Neb\u00a0 271, 231 NW 747, 74 ALR 5, Green v Hudson River Railroad Co<\/em>. (NY) 32 Barb 25, 33<\/span>.<\/span><\/strong>
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 As this term is used in death statutes allowing the “pecuniary damages” resulting to the beneficiaries to be recovered in an action, the words are not used in a sense of the immediate loss of money or property, but they look to the prospective advantages of a pecuniary nature which have been cut off by the premature death of the person from whom they have proceeded.\u00a0 22 Am J2d Dth \u00a7 123<\/span>.<\/strong> [2]<\/span><\/p>\n

1. A loss of money; a loss by which money, or that which has a monetary value, may be acquired.\u00a0 As used in connection with a wrongful death action, the beneficiaries’ economic loss due to the premature death of the decedent.<\/strong> [3]<\/span><\/p>\n
