Answer:
The meaning of this phrase is that if justice is not delivered at the right time, it either may lose importance or may become meaningless.
Example: Jessica Lal Case
It was a tragic situation where it could be clearly seen how justice was delayed and for a long time denied too.
Jessica Lal (1965-1999), a model in New Delhi, was working as a celebrity barmaid at a crowded socialite party when she was shot dead at about 2 am on 30 April 1999. She was shot dead in full view of several people. It was on the basis of their statements that police built the case against the culprit. However, he fled the crime scene and remained on the run for days, something he would not have done had he been innocent. However, as time went by, witnesses to the murder suddenly became unable to identify him as the killer, and he was thus released on bail. On 21 February 2006, the culprit and others were acquitted. If the case would have taken more time, he would have probably remained free forever.
Following intense media and public pressure, the prosecution appealed and the Delhi High Court conducted proceedings on a fast track with daily hearings conducted over 25 days. The trial court judgement was overturned, and the culprit was found guilty of having murdered Lal. He was sentenced to life imprisonment on 20 December 2006. On 19 April 2010, the Supreme Court of India approved the sentence.

Ramu owned a small patch of land in his village. He had a small hut at one corner of the land and tilled remaining portion to grow some crops. The crop was barely enough to sustain his family but provided considerable support to his meager income. An influential person from the same village captured Ramu’s land and threatened Ramu with dire consequences. Ramu mustered up some courage to file a case against his fellow villager. The repeated dates for court hearings meant Ramu had to skip work and had to spend money on lawyers and travel bills. The case protracted for fifteen years. It took its toll in the form of Ramu’s falling health and falling income. Ramu’s wife died because of lack of proper medical care. Ramu could somehow manage to arrange for his daughter’s marriage. Now, he has no physical strength left in him to pursue the case. He is too poor to even fend for himself and has decided to give up. He blames his plight on his bad luck.
