Nitpick, but there's no such thing. You mean the English legal system. Scotland's legal system is completely different (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scots_law http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scots_law), as is that of Northern Ireland.
- electromagnetic 15y agoActually in Canada the law is inherited from England, Scotland and Ireland and IIRC is up to a judges discretion as to whether the common law applies. This is due to the fact that many of the people originally immigrating to Canada came from Scotland and Ireland.
