Maxims of Law are

[palani]

... an established principle or proposition


MAXIM. An established principle or proposition. A principle of
law universally admitted, as being just and consonant With
reason.

2. Maxims in law are somewhat like axioms in geometry. 1 Bl.
Com. 68. They are principles and authorities, and part of the
general customs or common law of the land; and are of the same
strength as acts of parliament, when the judges have determined
what is a maxim; which belongs to the judges and not the jury.
Terms do Ley; Doct. & Stud. Dial. 1, c. 8. Maxims of the law are
holden for law, and all other cases that may be applied to them
shall be taken for granted. 1 Inst. 11. 67; 4 Rep. See 1 Com. c.
68; Plowd. 27, b.

3. The application of the maxim to the case before the court,
is generally the only difficulty. The true method of making the
application is to ascertain bow the maxim arose, and to consider
whether the case to which it is applied is of the same character,
or whether it is an exception to an apparently general rule.

4. The alterations of any of the maxims of the common law are
dangerous. 2 Inst. 210.

With that in mind ... whatcha gunna do when you find a woman judicial actor sitting 4 feet above the floor? You are in a court of Law (just ask them ... they will generally tell you this). Here you have an established principle of Law:

Faemina ab omnibus officiis civilibus vel publicis remotae sunt. Women are excluded from all civil and public charges or offices.

So you supply a definition to "maxim of law" and then inject a random latin quote stating that women are excluded from civil and public charges or offices.

One thing pops out that catches my attention. How does this old outdated quote from who knows when apply to today...and to US law?

I think its pretty shitty of you to twist and morph a useless quote into some sort of maxim of law and then try to pass it as if it applies to US law.
You really are a DISHONEST person.
I've only seen one other person do more damage than good when trying to educate people in law.

I wouldn't say its a useless quote. It probably did apply in the US until some time after women got the right to vote. Rather than calling it a usless quote I would say it is an interesting historical observation. Things tend to evolve and change over time as public opinion and customs change.

there only one set of law and that's GOD LAWS there cannot be any law made by man

I understand where you are coming from Monty, but the way Palani structures his posts the ignorant would think if they found themselves in court where a woman is residing as judge they could pull out this useless quote and get the judge to step down or think the system is corrupt in that sense.

Palani does not provide any proof that quote was ever a maxim of law anywhere, but hes pushing it as if it was.
It pure drama!
This is where I say hes nothing but a conspiracy mongerer yapping his jaws to persuade people to think like he does........which is wrong and destructful.

Laws have a life cycle. They are born. They live. They die.

Axioms of geometry don't change.

Neither do maxims of law. You mess with them at your own peril.

[palani]

there only one set of law
You are where you are by the law of your being.

Your law is not my law.

I have a different being.

Charlie Sheen is where he is by the law of his being.

Some lifestyles come with pre-ordained penalties it seems.

Party Hearty, my Friend.

which is wrong and destructful.
You now have sufficient notice to set your mode to INQUIRE. Instead you choose to make all sorts of statements which would cause any intelligent man to wince at your blatant stupidity.

I guess that is the law of your being.
