PREJUDICE - To decide beforehand; to lean in favor of one side of a cause for some reason or other than its justice.
A judge ought to be without prejudice, and he cannot therefore sit in a case where he has any interest, or when a near relation is a partt, or where he has been of counsel for one of the parties.
In the civil law prejudice signifies a tort or injury; as the act of one man should never prejudice another. --b-- |
