claim in equity

Read a random definition: double standard

A quick definition of claim in equity:

A claim in equity was a quick way to resolve simple legal cases without going through a long and complicated court process. It was used in England from 1850 to 1860 to make things easier for people who needed justice.

A more thorough explanation:

A claim in equity was a legal process created in England in 1850 to simplify the procedure for resolving simple cases. It was a summary proceeding that eliminated the need for lengthy pleading procedures.

For example, if a person had a dispute with their neighbor over a property line, they could file a claim in equity to quickly resolve the issue without going through a lengthy trial.

The claim in equity was abolished in 1860, but its legacy can still be seen in modern legal systems, where simplified procedures are often used for resolving minor disputes.

One manager came in sick wearing a mask, got roasted and stopped wearing it that day. The entire office has been cycling sickness for two weeks now. It may not be super effective but it may help in slowing the spread during meetings when we have to be so close
