A quick definition of natural equity:

Natural equity refers to fairness and impartiality in dealing with others. It is a set of principles that determine what is right and fair. It is often used to correct or supplement the law when it does not fully address an issue. Natural equity is also known as natural justice. It is important to note that while natural justice is not always enforced by the courts, it is still a guiding principle for individuals to follow in their own conscience.

A more thorough explanation:

Natural equity is a concept of fairness and impartiality in dealing with others. It is based on the body of principles that constitute what is fair and right, also known as natural law. Natural equity is often used to correct or supplement the law as applied to particular circumstances.

For example, a judge may decide a case by equity because the statute did not fully address the issue. This means that the judge used principles of justice to make a fair decision, even if it was not explicitly stated in the law.

Another example of natural equity is the idea of countervailing equity, which is a balancing equity that is equally deserving of consideration. This means that when there are conflicting interests, the court must consider both sides and make a fair decision based on the principles of natural equity.

Overall, natural equity is about treating others fairly and justly, even if it means going beyond what is explicitly stated in the law.
