Litigants Obey The Verdict Of A Tribunal Solely On The Premise That There Is An Objective Rule Of Conduct.

Litigants obey the verdict of a tribunal solely on the premise that there is
an objective rule of conduct. Now I saw that one man was to be bound by
it, but the other was not, one was to obey a rule, the other was to assert
an arbitrary wish -- his need -- and the law was to stand on the side of the
wish. Justice was to consist of upholding the unjustifiable.
-- Judge Narragansett
