Societies change over time. Practices considered acceptable - even righteous - might be seen in an entirely different light two generations later. These practices generally involve moral principles. So, the Supreme Court once in a while weighs cases against the Constitution without taking the larger moral question into consideration, especially when society at large has settled on one side or the other.
In the past, the Court has ruled cases involving child labor, racial inequality (referring here not to cases of people being treated differently because of race, but to the notion that non-white races are themselves unequal and inferior), certain romantic activities between adults, and slavery could not be condoned or overturned on constitutional grounds.
Sometimes the issue isn't moral, but regulatory - the Court has sided against a New York State law limiting a baker's work week to 60 hours and overturned a law setting minimum wages for women. Sometimes the issue is political. The Court has reversed itself regarding decisions on campaign finance and voting rights, for example.
The Court still supports decisions that it could reverse in the future. Although many today would deny it until their final breath, it is hypothetically possible that society might one day decide to prohibit abortions in all but the most extreme circumstances. A future Court examining the ruling of the Affordable Care Act might decide it had, in effect, re-written the law in order to deem it constitutional. That in itself is unconstitutional because Congress writes legislation, and never the Supreme Court.
When new justices are appointed, their interpretation of the law may be different.
court decision reflect changing social political and economic condition
No. Rulings of the US Supreme Court are 'the law of the land.'
Yes. That is usually what they do.
Not true. The Supreme Court has reversed many of its earlier decisions.
disappointed, because the judges did not reverse all liberal decisions
As 'jurisprudence'. Which means that other courts throughout the nation will take them as a lead for their own future decisions. This is not only standard procedure, but also because these courts know that if they go against an earlier Supreme Court decision, they will in the end be overturned if the parties appeal.
Supreme Court Report Annotated is the name of the bound series of legal decisions of the Philippines Supreme Court. There is no publication specifically listed as Supreme Court Annotated Decisions or Supreme Court Decisions Annotated, except for a few US historical documents listed as Supreme Court Decisions [annotated].You didn't specify whether you were looking for official documentation for the Philippines or the United States. In the United States, the comparable, annotated volumes of Supreme Court decisions is called US Supreme Court Reports, lawyers' edition.
The Supreme Court has made many decisions. Provide a case or subject and an answer can be given.
Since it is the Supreme Court that decides what is constitutional and what is not, the decisions of the Supreme Court cannot be unconstitutional, however, it is always possible for the Supreme Court to make new decisions which reverse older decisions. So in theory, if the Supreme Court does something wrong, they will be reversed by a later sitting of the same court (but with new judges).
Absolutely, yes. The US Supreme Court has overturned many lower court decisions on the basis of unconstitutionality of the law, as written or applied, or something that occurred in the legal process.
No. The decisions of the Texas Supreme Court are binding on trial courts in Texas. That is why it is called the Supreme Court.
The state supreme court is the highest state court in the state court system. It makes decisions according to the statutes and constitution of the state in which it is housed, as well as case law, or precedents, established by earlier state or federal Supreme Court decisions, and operates almost entirely on an appellate basis.The outcome of court cases is considered final except where there is a preserved issue that can be raised under federal jurisdiction - such cases would then be eligible for review by the Supreme Court of the United States.
