China. Or anywhere else that's closer to the Napoleonic code (command and control laws) than the common law (custom-based laws). (Sorry, I'm not a lawyer, so my terminology might not be accurate). The problem is, the law is accountable to the government, not the other way round. I guess you could create a hybrid system, in which higher courts shape the morass of law and precedent into simple explicit codes for the citizenry and lower courts to follow. That might give you the best of both worlds, but it might have its own problems.
