Chancery Courts
Chancery Courts are specialized courts that handle cases involving equity, such as disputes over contracts, property, and trusts. Unlike regular courts, which focus on legal remedies, Chancery Courts aim to provide fair solutions based on principles of justice and fairness. They often deal with cases where monetary compensation is not sufficient to resolve the issue.
These courts originated in England and are part of the broader judicial system. In the United States, Chancery Courts exist in several states, including Delaware, where they are known for their expertise in corporate law. Their decisions can include injunctions, specific performance, and other equitable remedies.
