  RIGHT, n.  Legitimate authority to be, to do or to have; as the right
  to be a king, the right to do one's neighbor, the right to have
  measles, and the like.  The first of these rights was once universally
  believed to be derived directly from the will of God; and this is
  still sometimes affirmed _in partibus infidelium_ outside the
  enlightened realms of Democracy; as the well known lines of Sir
  Abednego Bink, following:
  
          By what right, then, do royal rulers rule?
              Whose is the sanction of their state and pow'r?
          He surely were as stubborn as a mule
              Who, God unwilling, could maintain an hour
      His uninvited session on the throne, or air
      His pride securely in the Presidential chair.
  
          Whatever is is so by Right Divine;
              Whate'er occurs, God wills it so.  Good land!
          It were a wondrous thing if His design
              A fool could baffle or a rogue withstand!
      If so, then God, I say (intending no offence)
      Is guilty of contributory negligence.

/ˈɹaɪt/

From Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) :   [ bouvier ]

  RIGHT. This word is used in various senses: 1. Sometimes it signifies a law, 
  as when we say that natural right requires us to keep our promises, or that 
  it commands restitution, or that it forbids murder. In our language it is 
  seldom used in this sense. 2. It sometimes means that quality in our actions 
  by which they are denominated just ones. This is usually denominated 
  rectitude. 3. It is that quality in a person by which he can do certain 
  actions, or possess certain things which belong to him by virtue of some 
  title. In this sense, we use it when we say that a man has a right to his 
  estate or a right to defend himself. Ruth, Inst. c. 2, Sec. 1, 2, 3; 
  Merlin,; Repert. de Jurisp. mot Droit. See Wood's Inst. 119. 
       2. In this latter sense alone, will this word be here considered. Right 
  is the correlative of duty, for, wherever one has a right due to him, some 
  other must owe him a duty. 1 Toull. n. 96. 
       3. Rights are perfect and imperfect. When the things which we have a 
  right to possess or the actions we have a right to do, are or may be fixed 
  and determinate, the right is a perfect one; but when the thing or the 
  actions are vague and indeterminate, the right is an imperfect one. If a man 
  demand his property, which is withheld from him, the right that supports his 
  demand is a perfect one; because the thing demanded is, or may be fixed and 
  determinate. 
       4. But if a poor man ask relief from those from whom he has reason to 
  expect it, the right, which supports his petition, is an imperfect one; 
  because the relief which he expects, is a vague indeterminate, thing. Ruth. 
  Inst. c. 2, Sec. 4; Grot. lib. 1, c. Sec. 4. 
       5. Rights are also absolute and qualified. A man has an absolute right 
  to recover property which belongs to him; an agent has a qualified right to 
  recover such property, when it had been entrusted to his care, and which has 
  been unlawfully taken out of his possession. Vide Trover. 
       6. Rights might with propriety be also divided into natural and civil 
  rights but as all the rights which man has received from nature have been 
  modified and acquired anew from the civil law, it is more proper, when 
  considering their object, to divide them into political and civil rights. 
       7. Political rights consist in the power to participate, directly or 
  indirectly, in the establishment or management of government. These 
  political rights are fixed by the constitution. Every citizen has the right 
  of voting for public officers, and of being elected; these are the political 
  rights which the humblest citizen possesses. 
       8. Civil rights are those which have no relation to the establishment, 
  support, or management of the government. These consist in the power of 
  acquiring and enjoying property, of exercising the paternal and marital 
  powers, and the like. It will be observed that every one, unless deprived of 
  them by a sentence of civil death, is in the enjoyment of his civil rights, 
  which is not the case with political rights; for an alien, for example, has 
  no political, although in the full enjoyment of his civil rights. 
       9. These latter rights are divided into absolute and relative. The 
  absolute rights of mankind may be reduced to three principal or primary 
  articles: the right of personal security, which consists in a person's legal 
  and uninterrupted enjoyment of his life, his limbs, his body, his health, 
  and his reputation; the right of personal liberty, which consists in the 
  power of locomotion, of changing situation, or removing one's person to 
  whatsoever place one's inclination may direct, without any restraint, unless 
  by due course of law; the right of property, which consists in the free use, 
  enjoyment, and disposal of all his acquisitions, without any control or 
  diminution, save only by the laws of the land. 1 Bl. 124 to 139. 
      10. The relative rights are public or private: the first are those which 
  subsist between the people and the government, as the right of protection on 
  the part of the people, and the right of allegiance which is due by the 
  people to the government; the second are the reciprocal rights of husband 
  and wife, parent and child, guardian and ward, and master and servant. 
      11. Rights are also divided into legal and equitable. The former are 
  those where the party has the legal title to a thing, and in that case, his 
  remedy for an infringement of it, is by an action in a court of law. 
  Although the person holding the legal title may have no actual interest, but 
  hold only as trustee, the suit must be in his name, and not in general, in 
  that of the cestui que trust. 1 East, 497 8 T. R. 332; 1 Saund. 158, n. 1; 2 
  Bing. 20. The latter, or equitable rights, are those which may be enforced 
  in a court of equity by the cestui que trust. See, generally, Bouv. Ins t. 
  Index, h.t. Remedy.
