Income Lost - Deposit Paid To You - Damages Type?

You received some income in advance, and you cannot carry out the work required due to a personal injury caused through negligence. As a result, you have to repay the income to your customer.

Is that general or special damages during the negligence case?

I would guess special as it’s quantifiable.

I’m querying whether it could be general damages as ‘future loss of earnings’ tends to fall within those.

If you’ve got a case to support your answer I would LOVE to see it!
