Rescission is an equitable remedy. Legal remedies deal in monetary damages. Rescission of a contract puts both parties back into their position before the contract.
Rescission is considered an equitable remedy. It allows a contract to be cancelled and parties to be restored to their pre-contractual positions. It is typically granted by a court to prevent unjust enrichment or unfair outcomes.
An equitable remedy can provide fair and just resolutions in legal disputes where monetary damages may not be enough. This can include actions such as specific performance, injunctions, or restitution, which aim to restore parties to a position of fairness or prevent unjust enrichment. Equitable remedies are often sought when traditional legal remedies are inadequate.
Equitable interest refers to a person's right to benefit from a property, in contrast to legal interest which refers to the actual ownership of the property. Equitable interests arise from equitable principles and may include rights like a beneficial interest under a trust. Legal interests are recognized by law and provide clear ownership rights over a property.
Advantages of equity in English law include its flexibility to provide fair outcomes in unique cases, its ability to offer remedies beyond what strict legal rules allow, and its emphasis on fairness and justice. Disadvantages may include the potential for inconsistency due to its discretionary nature, the complexity of equitable principles which can be difficult to navigate, and the potential for delays in resolving disputes as equity cases can often be more time-consuming.
A legal right is a right you have to something without any barriers. An equitable right is one that would be recognized by a court of equity. One of the easiest to understand examples is the right of real property ownership.Suppose a person purchases a parcel of land by deed from its owner. That person becomes the legal owner of the property. They have a legal right of ownership.Now suppose a person inherited a parcel of land as the only heir at law of her grandfather. The grandfather's estate must be probated to transfer legal title to the beneficiary. When the estate is probated through the probate court the beneficiary will become the legal owner of the premises by virtue of the court order that allows the probating of the estate.If the estate is not probated the beneficiary has an equitable right to the property and is not the legal owner. She has the right to commence a court action to probate the estate so she can acquire the legal right to the premises.Another example: An owner whose land is taken by the town due to nonpayment of real estate taxes has an equitable interest in the property until that right has been barred by a court decree. In this case the delinquent property taxes are the barrier to full legal ownership. The delinquent taxpayer is no longer the legal owner of the premises. Until the delinquent owner's rights have been barred by a court decree they have the right to pay the delinquent taxes to redeem their property and become the legal owner once again.
