In this episode, we discuss using precedents. We will explain what is a precedent, how precedents are used in Common Law courts, and go through an example of this. We will look at two different cases, Balfour v. Balfour and Merrit v. Merrit, and discuss how these precedents work together, and how lawyers make use of these precedents when presenting their legal arguments.For the show notes, go here.
