A quick definition of golden rule:
The golden rule is a principle that says when we read something, like a law or rule, we should try to understand the words in their normal meaning. But if that meaning would lead to something that doesn't make sense or is unfair, we can change the meaning a little bit to make it better. This is called the golden rule because it helps us find the best way to understand things.
A more thorough explanation:
The Golden Rule is a principle used in interpreting written documents, such as laws or contracts. It means that a court should follow the ordinary meaning of the words used, unless doing so would lead to an absurd or unjust result. In that case, the court should interpret the words in a way that avoids such a result.
For example, let's say there is a law that says "No vehicles allowed in the park." If someone is using a wheelchair, it would be absurd to interpret this law to mean that they cannot enter the park. Therefore, the court might use the Golden Rule to interpret the law in a way that allows wheelchair users to enter the park.
The Golden Rule is not always easy to apply, and there can be debate about what constitutes an "absurd" result. However, it is an important principle in ensuring that laws and other written documents are interpreted fairly and justly.
