The Original Magna Carta 1215

Magna Carta Law Firm in Pattaya, Thailand, is celebrating their 11^th year of business operations this year. It is also the 800^th anniversary of their namesake, the Magna Carta (meaning “Great Charter”), which was a seminal legal document signed by King John of England and his rebellious nobles on the 15^th June 1215 and which set out the rights of the individual to restrict the absolute power of the monarchy. In short, it was the cornerstone of the English ‘Constitution’, thus, the establishment of the principle that every individual, including the King, was subject to the law of the land. It promised, amongst other things, that all free men had the right to justice and that there must be no illegal imprisonment without a fair trial.

The Magna Carta 1215 was an important historical legal document. They subsequently use this as the starting point and the basis for defining the rights of the individual against the state. Its principles are at the heart of many modern countries’ democratic constitutions.
