Usage : {
Justice }, {
Equity }, {
Law }.
Justice and equity are the same ;
but human laws ,
though designed to secure justice ,
are of necessity imperfect ,
and hence what is strictly legal is at times far from being equitable or just .
Here a court of equity comes in to redress the grievances .
It does so ,
as distinguished from courts of law ;
and as the latter are often styled courts of justice ,
some have fancied that there is in this case a conflict between justice and equity .
The real conflict is against the working of the law ;
this a court of equity brings into accordance with the claims of justice .
It would be an unfortunate use of language which should lead any one to imagine he might have justice on his side while practicing iniquity (
inequity ). {
Justice }, {
Rectitude }.
Rectitude ,
in its widest sense ,
is one of the most comprehensive words in our language ,
denoting absolute conformity to the rule of right in principle and practice .
Justice refers more especially to the carrying out of law ,
and has been considered by moralists as of three kinds :
(
1 )
Commutative justice ,
which gives every man his own property ,
including things pledged by promise . (
2 )
Distributive justice ,
which gives every man his exact deserts . (
3 )
General justice ,
which carries out all the ends of law ,
though not in every case through the precise channels of commutative or distributive justice ;
as we see often done by a parent or a ruler in his dealings with those who are subject to his control .

worthiness Justice is rendering to every one that which is his due .
It has been distinguished from equity in this respect ,
that while justice means merely the doing what positive law demands ,
equity means the doing of what is fair and right in every separate case .

In the most extensive sense of the word ,
it differs little from virtue ,
for it includes within itself the whole circle of virtues .
Yet the common distinction between them is that that which considered positively and in itself ,
is called virtue ,
when considered relatively and with respect to others ,
has the name of justice .
But justice being in itself a part of virtue ,
is confined to things simply good or evil ,
and consists in a man '
s taking such a proportion of them as he ought .
2 .
Justice is either distributive or commutative .
Distributive justice is that virtue whose object is to distribute rewards and punishments to each one according to his merits ,
observing a just proportion by comparing one person or fact with another ,
so that neither equal persons have unequal things ,
nor unequal persons things equal .

Commutative justice is that virtue whose object it is to render to every one what belongs to him ,
as nearly as may be ,
or that which governs contracts .
To render commutative justice ,
the judge must make an equality between the parties ,
that no one may be a gainer by another '
s loss .

Toullier exposes the want of utility and exactness in this division of distributive and commutative justice ,
adopted in the compendium or abridgments of the ancient doctors ,
and prefers the division of internal and external justice ;
the first being a conformity of our will ,
and the latter a conformity of our actions to the law :
their union making perfect justice .
Exterior justice is the object of jurisprudence ;
interior justice is the object of morality .

justice consists simply in letting every one enjoy the rights which he has acquired in virtue of the laws .
And as this definition includes all the other rules of right ,
there is properly but one single general rule of right ,
namely ,
Give every one his own .
