In the legal case Eyerman v Mercantile Trust Co, the outcome was that the court ruled in favor of the plaintiff, Eyerman, stating that the bank had breached its fiduciary duty. This case set a precedent for holding financial institutions accountable for their actions and established the importance of upholding fiduciary responsibilities in future legal cases.
A precedent is when the outcome of a case helps set the rules for future cases. A judge doesnâ??t have to use a precedent in the ruling, but precedents can be used to predict how a case will turn out.
The decisions are called precedents. Precedents are used as a guide by future court cases with similar fact patterns.
In the legal case Plumme v State, the outcome was that the court ruled in favor of the State. This case established a precedent that allowed for the use of certain evidence obtained through a warrantless search in certain circumstances. This decision has influenced future legal cases involving search and seizure laws.
stare decisis
Case law is based on the precedents and and legal principles applied by other courts in previous cases.
They are called precedents. If the decision was made by a court with jurisdiction over a lower court, they are called binding precedents because the lower court is required to apply the same reasoning in similar cases under the doctrine of stare decisis.
They are called "precedents of law" and affect how similar present or future cases are decided.
The outcome was a great many broken windows, and a terrible fear for the future.
There is no doctrine of non-binding precedents. Non-binding opinions that may be used as guidelines for deciding future cases are called persuasive precedents. Binding precedents are upheld under the doctrine of stare decisis (Latin: Let the decision stand).
Precedents were set for future presidents to follow.
