Based on fundamental beliefs of what is fair and who is to be treated as a human being. Legal procedures to appeal and make one"s case. For example: right to be notified to an action against you, right to a fair trial, right to appeal etc. Rule of justice can only be applied to beings that are alike according to ethical likeness. Justice claims equality that everybody is ethical alike and should be treated the same way. But in reality, one"s race, gender, and class determines if he/she is included in the legal community. Justice: getting what you deserve, reflects as a collective body of the political community. A fundamental agreement/contract to leave the state of nature in the creation of a political system.
