stare decisis

     

Stare ecisis — "to stand by things decided"— (Latin: [ˈstaːre deːˈkiːsiːs], Anglicisation: [ˈsteɹɪ diˈsaɪsɪs]) is a Latin legal term, used in common law systems expressing the notion that, according to case law, prior court decisions must be recognized as precedent. The full legal term is "stare decisis et non quieta movere" meaning "stand by decisions and do not move that which is still" (NOTE: famously, "quieta non movere" is a maxim akin to "let sleeping dogs lie").

  • Why doesn't word understand latin? writing about stare decisis and ratio decidendi is harder when there is a load of red squiggles.
  • Who was trying to get hobby lobby to cover plan b? So basically by stare decisis this just means that nothing changes abt plan b?
  • I love how much crap scalia and company are getting for using stare decisis. There are so many other cases that ACTUALLY impact your life
  • Stare decisis(先例拘束性の原則)は、ある事例において裁判所が決定した判決が、同じjurisdiction(法域内)の裁判所で将来同じような事例が起きた場合、以前裁判所がだした判決が適用されるっていう原理なんだ。
  • I am hopeful SCOTUS current contempt for stare decisis will extend to Hobby Lobby. Alito basically says as much in his opinion.
  • @MZHemingway: “Stare Decisis doesn’t apply when the first decision sucks.” --@hughhewitt
  • @SammyK_ @DriXander Good read by Toobin re: Roberts' Court M.O. to OT precedent&lay steamers on stare decisis
  • @mike_dillion @drixander yes, could be. Also as dissent notes, stare decisis is strong. But then again, Citizens United made it weaker
  • @CChristineFair I'm unaware of one, but that doesn't matter for the Courts. Only the Constitution, statutory law, and stare decisis.
  • The other problem with today's decision is that it defies our judicial precept of stare decisis (binding precedent) like Bush v Gore #scotus
  • What happened to judicial restraint, Mr Chief Justice? Respecting precedent & Stare Decisis? Instead... #CitizensUnited #Scotus #Hillary2016
  • Chief Justice Roberts repeatedly emphasized his respect for precedent/Stare Decisis during his sworn testimony. Not so much! #CitizensUnited
  • Unless we all get confused SCOTUS says no Other law s/b relevant; it's as if stare decisis itself has been sacrificed to hobby lobby whimsy
  • @DestroTheNoble That is indeed how vertical stare decisis works!
  • @BrianFReilly1 indeed it does stand. Guess Alito forgot his promise on Stare decisis.
  • For now let our IMMIGRATION LAWS, STAND; As of 2008 Title 8 of the U.S. Code. TEMPERY EMERCY ACTION for now. STARE DECISIS
  • @yeselson @VerumVulnero1 Agreed. It’s not. At least, it’s not if you accept stare decisis and the last century of jurisprudence.
  • Kagan on Stare Decisis
  • Well played RT @JoshMBlackman: Kagan: "Abood remains the law." I can’t believe she missed "Abood abides." #SCOTUS
