equal protection of the laws
constitutional guarantee embodied in the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which states in relevant part that "no State shall . . . deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." The essential purpose of this constitutional doctrine is to ensure that the laws and the government treat all persons alike, unless there is some substantial reason why certain persons or classes of persons should be treated differently.
