 The maxims of equity are a set of general principles that guide the application of law in situations where strict legal rules may not provide a just outcome. Some of the most important maxims of equity include "equity follows the law," "he who comes to equity must come with clean hands," and "equity will not suffer a wrong to be without a remedy." These maxims serve as a framework for courts to balance competing interests, ensure fairness and justice, and provide flexible remedies that may not be available through strict application of legal rules. The maxims of equity continue to play an important role in shaping the development of common law and the legal system of many countries.
