There is meant to be a balance between justice for the individual (presumably in his/her defence) and the right of society to curtail the (unlawful) actions of one to another (presumably the case for the plaintiff / prosecution).

Justice, being blind, (hence the blindfold on the lady), will weigh the evidence and use the "Sword of Truth" to obtain justice.
