MAXIMS OF EQUITY.
A short, pithy statement expressing a general truth or
rule of conduct Or An established principle or
proposition. The concept of equity is contained in
twelve principles of equity (equitable principles)
known as maxims of equity. The principles of equity
came into being through the liberal application of
principles of justice with the objective of remedying
the defects of common law, and in the process
equitable maxims have been developed.
Maxims of Equity:
–Equality is Equity
–He who seek equity must do equity
–Equity follows the Law
–Equity looks to the intent rather than
to the form
–Where there is equal equity, the law
shall prevent
–Equity looks on that as done which
ought to have been done
–Equity acts in personam
–Equity will not suffer a wrong to be
without a remedy
–He who comes into equity must come
with clean hands
–Equity imputes an intention to fulfil an
obligation
–Delay Defeats equity
–Where the equities are equal, first in
time shall prevail
Assessment Pattern
Students are assessed
on the basis of the
following parameters:
• Assignments
• Surprise Test
• Quiz
• Discussion
