The English term "Victors' justice" was first used by Richard Minear in his 1971 account of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East, and is typically (but not always) applied to the aftermath of warfare. It may be a loan translation of synonymous German "Siegerjustiz", which is attested since at least the 1960s. The closely related term "Vae victis behaviour" is where a victor unilaterally changes the agreed treaties or their interpretations and is seen as a form of victor's justice.
