The Hamilton-Jacobi analysis for gravity without dynamics is performed. We report a detailed analysis where the complete set of Hamilton-Jacobi constraints, the characteristic equations and the gauge transformations of the theory are found. We compare our results with those reported in the literature where alternative approaches are used. In addition, we complete our work by performing the canonical covariant analysis by constructing a gauge invariant symplectic structure, and we find a full consistency between the results obtained from both approaches.
