Why are US Supreme Court decisions so important?
Supreme Court decisions are so important because the Supreme Court is the final authority for interpreting federal laws and the US Constitution. All courts in the US must adhere to the decisions as handed down by the Court. In the common law system that is practiced in the US (and in UK, etc) the lower courts must apply the same rule of law as the higher court has handed down. For example the Supreme Court finds that segregated schools are unconstitutional in Kansas (Brown v. Board of Education), all lower courts must then find in favor of the parties asking that schools be ordered to integrate throughout the rest of the country. So if Florida continued to have segregated schools, and a group of parents and students sued the school system, asking that they be ordered to integrate, the court would have no choice but to follow the rule as handed down by the US Supreme Court, and order the Florida system to integrate. In the case of interpretation of the constitution, the legislature must make a constitutional amendment to "overturn" the supreme court's interpretation. In the case of common law or interpretation of statutes, the legislature can "overturn" the Supreme Court ruling by creating a new statute. Also because the system of checks and balances includes the courts of this world, so it is TOO important to overlook. seriousle.
