In the Doctrine of Precedent, there are primarily two types of precedent: binding precedent and persuasive precedent. Binding precedent refers to decisions made by higher courts that must be followed by lower courts within the same jurisdiction. Persuasive precedent, on the other hand, includes rulings from lower courts, courts in other jurisdictions, or obiter dicta, which are not obligatory but can influence a court's decision. These distinctions help maintain consistency and provide guidance in legal decision-making.
