SOURCES OF LAW – JUDICIAL PRECEDENT

Summary/Abstract: Law is technique, but art as well, the art of good and equity – jus est ars boni et aequi.” Law is a set of rules established and guaranteed by the state, having as purpose the organization and discipline of human behavior in key relationships in society, in a climate specific to protection of essential rights and freedoms. To achieve these goals, law must be known and easily accessible through its own language and specific forms of expression, or sources of law. In the system of sources of law in some countries judicial precedent and practice have a major role. Their existence suggests that, in these countries, creative work of legal norms rests not only with legislative, but also with judicial bodies.
