No way? I thought the supreme court was like ..... supreme?
- netrus 13y agoWell, they may have the last word in some cases. But no judge is ever bound to act according to a supreme court judgement. They might do so, but they don't have to. To make decision permanent, the parliament has to pass a law.
- pjump 13y agoCourts within Civil Law systems are there just to interpret and enforce the law, not to create it. What individual courts decide is not binding on anyone but the involved parties.
- mariuolo 13y agoEven if not binding they are important references.
