The term "Commonwealth precedent" generally refers to legal decisions and interpretations that arise from Commonwealth countries, which share a common legal heritage based on British law. These precedents are established by courts and serve as authoritative examples in future cases, influencing legal practices across various jurisdictions within the Commonwealth. Notable Commonwealth countries include Canada, Australia, India, and the United Kingdom, each contributing to the body of common law through their judicial rulings.
