Equity in American Law

25 February 2026
12:30 pm EST

Join the Center for the Constitution and the Catholic Intellectual Tradition and the IHE for a panel discussion. In recent years, there has been renewed scholarly interest in how the equitable power of courts was understood at the Founding and throughout the nineteenth century. Some of this interest has focused on Supreme Court cases in which the limits on the equitable powers of federal courts were traced back to the Founding, while other scholars have focused on how equity and the natural-law tradition relate to each other in constitutional theory.

This event is free and open to the public.
