Summary "A Collection of Latin Maxims & Rules, in Law and Equity" by Peter Halkerston is a legal reference work written in the early 19th century. This compilation presents a wide range of Latin maxims sourced from various eminent authors across different legal traditions, including civil, canon, feudal, English, and Scots law. Each maxim is paired with an English translation, making it accessible to those learning or practicing law. The opening of this collection provides insight into the significance of legal maxims, depicting them as foundational principles that support the entire legal system. Halkerston emphasizes the importance of memorizing these maxims for legal practitioners to navigate their work effectively. He explains the nature of legal rules and posits that they should be derived from established law rather than the other way around. The section showcases a variety of maxims alongside their translations, setting the stage for a comprehensive engagement with legal principles that are both historical and practical in nature.
