Read a random definition: Principal Register

A quick definition of due course of law:

Due course of law, also known as due process, refers to the fair and just legal proceedings that protect people's rights. This includes giving notice and the opportunity for a fair hearing before a decision is made. It is important that the government follows established rules and principles to ensure that everyone is treated fairly. This applies to both adults and children, and includes both procedural due process (notice and a hearing) and substantive due process (fair and reasonable laws that serve a legitimate purpose).

A more thorough explanation:

Due course of law refers to the process of legal proceedings that follow established rules and principles to protect and enforce private rights. It includes the right to notice and a fair hearing before a tribunal with the power to decide the case. Due course of law is also known as due process.

For example, if someone is accused of a crime, they have the right to be informed of the charges against them and to have a fair trial before a judge and jury. This ensures that the accused person is given a chance to defend themselves and that the legal process is fair and just.

There are different types of due process, including procedural due process and substantive due process. Procedural due process requires that the minimal requirements of notice and a hearing be guaranteed by the Due Process Clauses of the 5th and 14th Amendments, especially if the deprivation of a significant life, liberty, or property interest may occur. Substantive due process requires that legislation be fair and reasonable in content and further a legitimate governmental objective.

Overall, due course of law is an essential part of the legal system that ensures fairness and justice for all individuals involved in legal proceedings.

I wish that wearing a mask when sick stuck around as an okay thing like it is in the rest of the world, not all of us have enough sick days to be ditching work.

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
