    Additional Cases On Selected Maxims of Equity

    Uploaded by

    Isaiahyaya96
    This document discusses several maxims of equity that are relevant for cases involving equitable relief: 1. He who seeks equity must do equity - a party seeking an equitable remedy must be willing to do what is fair. 2. He who seeks equity must come with clean hands - a party must not have unclean hands, such as fraud, to obtain equitable relief. 3. Where there is equity, the law shall prevail - equitable principles will prevail over the strict application of law where fairness requires it.
