How do court decisions become public policy?
In the United States of America, court decisions must undergo a vigorous process in order to become public policy. Looking back on history, pivotal cases such as Brown v. Topeka Board of Education, which made segregated schools and facilities illegal, was decided by the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court has the power to overturn laws as unconstitutional, making the effect public policy. With the case mentioned earlier, the Supreme Court had the power to call upon the Executive branch in forcing schools to desegregate, making intergrated schools new public policy. Also, a case decided years prior to a current case can be used as a precedent to prove your side of a case. After years of new cases using older ones for clarity, it becomes adopted as public policy and is occasionally supported by a legislative order.
