A quick definition of justitia naturalis:

Justitia naturalis, also known as natural justice, is about being fair and doing what is right in a moral sense, not just following the law. It is important to make sure that everyone is treated fairly and has a chance to present their side of the story. Other types of justice include commutative justice, which is about being fair in exchanges and contracts, and distributive justice, which is about sharing resources fairly in a community. It is also important to remember that popular justice, which is based on public opinion, may not always be fair. Finally, a justice can also refer to a judge, especially one who serves on an appellate court.

A more thorough explanation:

Natural justice, also known as justitia naturalis, refers to fairness and properness in decision-making based on moral principles rather than legal rules. It is concerned with treating people fairly and equally, regardless of their social status or background. For example, if a person is accused of a crime, they have the right to a fair trial where evidence is presented and both sides are heard before a decision is made. This is an example of natural justice because it ensures that the accused is treated fairly and given a chance to defend themselves. Natural justice is important because it helps to ensure that decisions are made based on what is right and fair, rather than on personal biases or prejudices.
