Definition of judicial remedy

A judicial remedy is a means of enforcing a right or preventing or correcting a wrong through legal or equitable relief. It is a remedy granted by a court.

Examples of judicial remedies include:

  • Judgments that require defendants to pay money to plaintiffs
  • Orders that require defendants to stop their wrongful conduct or undo its consequences
  • Injunctions or specific performance when monetary damages are not enough to adequately redress the injury

For instance, if a person is wrongfully terminated from their job, they may seek a judicial remedy by suing their employer for damages or requesting reinstatement through an injunction. The court will decide whether the person has been wronged under the law and will provide a remedy accordingly.

Simple Definition

A judicial remedy is a way for a court to help someone who has been wronged or is about to be wronged. There are different types of remedies, like getting money from the person who did wrong or making them stop doing the wrong thing. Some remedies are temporary, like a restraining order, and some are permanent, like a court order to deliver something that was promised. Remedies can be legal or equitable, and they are decided by the court based on the law and the situation.

The end of law is not to abolish or restrain, but to preserve and enlarge freedom.
