I think justice is an open issue and truth is ongoing.

Truth is your version of the event and justice is what you get if your truth is believed by the governing bodies you intrust to determine if your truth is truthful. Don't expect to get the truth or justice because they only exist theorectically in the textbooks. When you are young you believe in the truth and justice because that is what your parents, teachers, religious leaders ect... teach you. And they even come up with good stories and co-create events to prove it to you but this is all done in a controlled theatrical way. Once you become part of the adult world you learn fast that the truth and justice are similar to the fairy tales you were also taught. The truth isn't as important as financial gain at any cost and justice takes a back seat to financial and political gain. Both truth and justice are manipulated to conform to the whims of the people whomever they may be. The laws keep truth and justice in check by sequestering them in mounds of litigation to keep their power over the people at a minimum. We want truth and justice but we want our way and without any inconvience or discomfort.

Originally truth was the absolute and justice was the judgement of the particulars in reference to the truth. Today, truth is the facts and justice is the application of the facts to law rendering a judgement. It doesn't always work well.

Truth is truth. It's a fact that can't be changed even if it goes undiscovered. It is what it is. Justice, however, can not be had without truth. For how can one be just without the fact of the matter.

there's a distinct difference.
get this clear.
truth might sometimes go untold, doing it injustice.
justice is to uphold the truth and in doing so, uphold justice.
example:
The truth is u may be hiding the truth(hindering justice) . but it is not justice.
clear?

Truth is an ideal man seeks.
Truth cannot be had without justice taking place first.
A corruption of justice leads to twisted ways.
Truth is straight.

Who told you there is any relationship at all?
Those two words are impossible to define seperately, much less together.Any relationship they may posess is subjective,self-reflective and transient, other than the facts that they are both words in English and they are both used to describe intangibles.
