A wall set up by Thomas Jefferson's belief in separation of church and state.
The word 'precedent' is a noun, a word for an earlier event or action that is regarded as an example; a decision by a court on which future decisions are based.A noun functions as the subject of a sentence or a clause, and as the object of a verb or a preposition.Example: The ruling set a precedent for cases of this kind. (direct object of the verb 'set')
precedent
The precedent for voluntary union of the colonies was set with the fundamental orders of Connecticut.
One of the things he did was to set the term of office for the president. He could have stayed in office as long as he wanted, but he felt that an person should serve for a short time and then retire.
That depends on which court you're referring to. In the federal court system, the US Supreme Court sets binding (or mandatory) precedent for all lower courts; the US Court of Appeals Circuit Courts set binding precedent for all US District Courts within their jurisdiction, but only persuasive precedent elsewhere; the US District Courts do not set binding precedent at all, they only set persuasive precedent.
A feature of the Gupta empire was the re-establishment of state policy based on religious tolerance, following the successful precedent set by Ashoka Maurya. So yes they did
Washington set an important precedent at the end of his second term.In 1796,he decided not to run for a third term
I am not sure how important it was since there were not really very many presidents who would have served a third term even without Washington's precedent. Maybe Jefferson, Madison, Monroe or Theodore Roosevelt would have considered a third term had the precedent not been set against it. Jackson and Wilson might have if they were healthier when their second terms ended.

The Kalamazoo Case of 1874 set a precedent that taxing citizens for secondary education (post elementary school) was legal.
