Does doing whats right equate to "serving justice"?

When justice has been "served" in our court of law, is that always the right thing to do? (speaking in the bigger moral/ethical picture of things)
Answer:
justice most often can not be served in a court. if you have money and good lawyer, one can get away with murder! also what is ethical depends on the time and place. an action has a better chance of being ethical when it is truly impartial, then you have justice. poor people are punished everyday even though what actually the person needs, is help and some attention. in fact then you will have a better chance to serve and help the community as a whole. that would be a just and ethical thing to do.
not always...

Doing what is right is not always dong what is "just"
That all depends. Some people would say that It's not right. We shouldn't judge. Others say. Kill them all and let GOD sort them out. Some may even say. Just lock them up and let them die behind bars of natural causes. But I guess no one knows what side of the barrel they sit on till they are the ones staring at the man who killed there loved ones.
Do not ask this to socrates because he could answer this no
What is right must we negate what is good .In order to have justice must seek not for it sake .
