Overview Of The Role Of Precedent In The Legal System Of The United States, Ana Elena Fierro Jan 1995

Overview Of The Role Of Precedent In The Legal System Of The United States, Ana Elena Fierro

LLM Theses and Essays

Traditionally, legal systems have been classified as either Common Law or Civil Law; scholars distinguish these systems based on their origins, as well their attitudes towards stare decisis. Common law considers precedent as a source of binding rules, while civil law does not. However, some scholars consider the methods for legal reasoning to be almost the same in every legal system.

Resolution Of Traffic Accident Disputes And Judicial Activism In Japan, Daniel H. Foote Jan 1995

Resolution Of Traffic Accident Disputes And Judicial Activism In Japan, Daniel H. Foote

Judicial Drag: An Essay On Wigs, Robes And Legal Change, Charles M. Yablon Jan 1995

Judicial Drag: An Essay On Wigs, Robes And Legal Change, Charles M. Yablon

Articles

The tradition, despite its anachronistic nature, endures due to factors like dignity, anonymity, and economic interests, rather than any functional necessity. The author suggests that such legal customs often persist because of historical context rather than optimal design.
