  • suspended driver's license
  • Excessive Mandatory Minimum Sentences
  • Wealth-Based Banishment That Outlaws Low-Income Housing
  • private probation abuses
  • Sex offense registration laws
  • Parking Tickets to Debtors' Prison

Explanation:

An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law. To put it in the terms of St. Thomas Aquinas: An unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal law and natural law.

Note: Sati practice is not unjust law.. in India under East India Company rule, by the Governor-General Lord William Bentinck, which made the practice of sati or suttee illegal in all jurisdictions of India and subject to prosecution.
