Term: EX AEQUO ET BONO

Definition: Ex aequo et bono means making a decision based on what is fair and good.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Ex aequo et bono is a Latin term that means "according to what is equitable and good." In international law, a decision-maker who is authorized to decide ex aequo et bono is not bound by legal rules and may instead follow equitable principles.

Example: Article 38(2) of the Statute of the International Court of Justice provides that the Court may "decide a case ex aequo et bono if the parties agree thereto." This means that if both parties agree, the Court can make a decision based on what is fair and just, rather than strictly following legal rules.

Explanation: Ex aequo et bono allows for decisions to be made based on fairness and justice, rather than just following legal rules. This can be useful in situations where the law may not provide a clear solution or where strict adherence to the law may not be the best course of action.

@babycat: got to keep those legs flexible so you don't pull anything, I need to get back into yoga to release and stretch out tension in my muscles. Stretching is where I fail the most with fitness

@babycat: If the person I am mentoring decides to listen to my advice instead of just discussing my advice I will pay you to tutor her. You seem like a smart, good and well put together person that she can probably learn well from.
