Court of equity
（重定向自Equity court）
A court of equity, equity court or chancery court is a court that is authorized to apply principles of equity, as opposed to law, to cases brought before it.
These courts began with petitions to the Lord Chancellor of England. Equity courts "handled lawsuits and petitions requesting remedies other than damages, such as writs, injunctions, and specific performance". Most were eventually "merged with courts of law".
