{{a|latin|}}“[[Durum caseum per magnos canibus]]”, or the doctrine of [[durum caseum]], is a principle of equity developed as a corollary to ''[[anus matronae parvae malas leges faciunt]]''.

Only where the law turns cartwheels to accommodate that sweet and fragrant matron, if you happen, say, to be Citigroup, expect some hard cheese. [[Durum caseum]], as they used to say back in the day.
