3 quotes

No man can come into a British Court of justice to seek the assistance of the law who founds his claim upon a contravention of the British laws.

Morck v. Abel (1802)

It is true that Courts of equity, in administering justice, sometimes go further than the Courts of law.

Houghton v. Matthews (1803)

The act of a single Judge, unless adopted by the Court to which he belongs, is of no validity. As the Courts do not sit in vacation, many things are done by the Judges individually; but their acts, when recognised, become the acts of the Court.

Turner v. Eyles (1803)
