“…Estoppel is a well-known common-law principle that prevents or precludes someone from making a claim in a lawsuit that is inconsistent with his prior conduct, if some other person has changed his position to his detriment in reliance on the prior conduct….”
I was trained to have the idea that their was a distinction between “common law” and courts of “equity law.” I understood ESTOPPEL to be an “equity law” principle. Was I miss trained on this point?
The principle was in all respects explained in the article exactly as I understood. But my understanding was that the Kings created courts to compete with the common law courts. They were the chancery courts. It was these courts that developed the principles of equity law.
