legal remedy

A remedy historically available in a court of law, as distinguished from a remedy historically available only in equity.

• After the merger of law and equity, this distinction remained relevant in some ways, such as in determining the right to jury trial and the choice between alternate remedies. [Cases: Action 21. C.J.S. Actions § 124.]
