ABSTRACT
This part of the text considers the different forms of equitable remedies which have evolved in the equitable jurisdiction. Unlike common law remedies, equitable remedies are directed at preventing or remedying the individual unfairness: in this sense, they are directed at the individual rather than constituting a generalised award. Furthermore, equitable remedies are intrinsically discretionary. Just because an applicant can prove a breach of equitable obligation or principle does not necessarily mean that relief will be granted; all will depend on the nature of the action and the individual determination of the course.
