Kevin Galarza 0816866 CRJ-101-004 Prof. Corrigan What Does Doing Justice Mean to Me? The term “ doing justice” comes from the Latin word "justitiam facere" , which is difficult to define since it varies according to the culture and values of each community, as well as the worldview of each individual. Doing Justice is, broadly speaking, the virtue of giving each one what it corresponds to. This can be used either taking into account the limitations of justice as a power or by establishing fairness on a reasonable basis. Within the judicial sphere, this concept is used to refer to the rules and rules that condition the actions of individuals and institutions on the basis of authorizations, prohibitions and obligations that must be respected. For the establishment of these conditions, societies often take as a basis the consensus coming from most individuals in a society with regard to what is considered to be bad and good. These norms and rules usually are formulated and put in writing by the members of legislature of every district which main function is exactly this. The word "doing justice" is also used to refer to the judiciary, one of the three powers of the State. It is this one that is responsible for applying the existing legal rules in the various conflicts arising within a company. In this way they have the function of administering justice.
