If there is a problem with the constitutionally of a law the Supreme Court makes the decision. The president has no power.
Theoretically in the United States, it is congress. The constitution gives congress the right to overrule any Supreme Court decision. It has never done that. It gives congress rights over decisions of the Executive branch. Congress usually defers. There is a difference between being the final authority and having common sense.

Verdict (typically refers to a jury decision) or judgment(final decision of the court).
The lower court decision from the highest court that reviewed the case becomes final and legally binding.
Decisions made by the trial court (the lowest level court) can be appealed to the next level.
Many can- IF you have grounds for an appeal. Having grounds for an appeal does NOT mean that you just did not like the decision, but that the court made an error. The decision of a few courts, like the US Supreme Court, cannot be appealed. They are the final word.
The Supreme Court (or any other court) is very unlikely to reverse prior case law decisions. However to directly answer your question, decisions by court of any kind are "final" and require no ratification by anyone. Court decisions may be challenged by new legislation or Constitutional Amendments that try to modify the laws that the court's decisions originally addressed. The court might then have to decide on the new laws and/or amendments, but this would be a new court decision.
