A common law rule (sometimes called due process) requiring a procedurally fair hearing and an unbiased decision in government and some private decision-making.
The essential nature of deciding justice
Injustice is first of all the impact it has, it is a deciding moment for the rest of your life.
It is the worst thing that you can experience.
Only then, at that moment you can feel what is happening.
Injustice is a feeling impossible to put into words.
There has to be a balance in the decision making – a fair procedure – to avoid possible mistakes
It is hard to answer the question what justice requires.
It is very hard to argue about justice without first to argue about the purpose.
