Which of the following is listed as an application of the maxim "He who seeks equity must do equity"?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
Restoring benefits when seeking cancellation is a direct example of the requirement to do equity. Public-law proceedings can also involve fairness, equitable discretion and related maxims, so judicial review is not categorically outside every equitable principle. Basic-structure and sovereign-immunity doctrines are not this restitution condition.
