Equal justice under law is not just a caption on the facade of the supreme Court building. It is perhaps the most inspiring ideal of our society and it is fundamental that justice should be the same, in substance and availability without regard to economic status.

JUSTICE LEWIS POWELL, JR (1907)

AUDI ALTERAM PARTEM:

Audi alteram partem is the basic concept of the principles of natural justice. It means that both sides must be heard before passing any order. It signifies that no man can be condemned without a hearing. It is a fundamental principle of natural justice that before an order is passed against a person, he should be given an opportunity to be heard in the matter.
