Recognizing common law
Description
Recognizing common law involves formally acknowledging and applying unwritten legal principles derived from judicial decisions and customary practices. This strategy ensures consistency and fairness in legal systems where statutory law is incomplete or ambiguous. By referencing established precedents, it remedies gaps, resolves disputes efficiently, and adapts legal responses to evolving societal norms, thereby enhancing legal certainty and public trust in justice where codified laws may be insufficient or outdated.
