noun

Gerichtshof, Rechtsgericht

A court which was empowered to decide questions of law and award monetary damages, but could not provide equitable relief, which was reserved for a court of equity.

Examples :

"Even though the lawcourt awarded John money for his damaged car, he had to go to a different court to get the company to stop polluting his neighborhood, because the lawcourt couldn't order them to stop, only pay for damages. "

Obwohl der Gerichtshof John Geld für seinen beschädigten Wagen zusprach, musste er ein anderes Gericht aufsuchen, um das Unternehmen dazu zu bringen, die Umweltverschmutzung in seiner Nachbarschaft zu stoppen, da das Rechtsgericht ihnen nicht befehlen konnte, damit aufzuhören, sondern nur für Schäden zahlen konnte.
