The American courts have two functions: to hear cases of law and to hear cases of equity. It's in this second role that the courts can issue injunctions, etc. to prevent or right a wrong. It's in this role that the courts are specifically concerned with justice. (One should note that this dual function is being merged with the addition of laws controlling what the courts can do in cases of equity.) But as was pointed out, the legislators should ensure that the laws are also just.
