the ratio decidendi and means reason for deciding this is the part that creates binding precedent. The rest of the speech is called the obiter dicta, which means other things said. Although this part does not create binding law it may be persuasive, other judges may refer to it and speculate as to what the decision would have been if the facts of the case had been different. This all seems very simple, but in fact, it can be very difficult to find the all important ratio decidendi in the
To sum up for each sources, regarding to Judicial precedent, to make decision in the court, the judge’s decision is bound by the previous decision in higher court. This is based on the doctrine of stare decisis. The binding part is called racio decidendi. The rest of non-binding part is obiter dicta. Regarding to Statute law, this is also called Acts of Parliament, and this is the primary legislation within the English law. Statutes are formed by the Parliament with very long process. While the
Judicial Precedent A) Explain what is meant by the doctrine of precedent. (11) B) What are the advantages and disadvantages of the doctrine of precedent? (14) A) The doctrine of judicial precedent is at the heart of the common law system of rights and duties. The courts are bound (within limits) by prior decisions of superior courts. One level includes stare decisis, this means to stand by what has been previously decided in a previous case and that this decision should be kept to and
Judicial Precedent "Within the present system of precedent in the English legal system, judges have very little discretion in their decision making." Judges have always been relied upon to interpret and apply the law. Therefore, their decisions should be fair and consistent so as the individuals seeking legal remedies would have more faith in the judicial system of the state. AS the UK has not a very complete and/or codified constitution, this doctrine is very much
the case must be the same, the principle must be a proposition of law, it must form part of the Ratio (see below) and that there has to be sufficient and accurate reports of earlier decisions. There are six main elements to the Doctrine of Judicial Precedent which are as follows:- Ratio Decidendi (Ratio): The reason for deciding, this is known as the legal reason for a Judges decision, the Ratio of a case although it can sometimes be somewhat difficult to interpret it is a fundamental part
example in the case of R V Collins, ex parte S, the Stare Decisis would be that S won the case. Ratio Decidendi, this is what forms the precedent of a case, because it is the reason or reasoning behind the judges decision, so sets an example to those adjudicating later cases of what verdict they must come to. For example in Hedley Byrne and Co. Ltd V Heller and Partners Ltd (1964) the ratio of the case was 'a person owes a duty of care when making a statement to persons when it is reasonable
The decisions made by the courts contain two types of branches: ‘ratio decidendi’ and ‘obiter dictum’. Ratio decidendi is based upon the fact that a judgement comes for applying the facts to law and thus the reason for the decision handed down, which is now binding on all inferior courts. Obiter dictums are statements made ‘by the way’, as such they are not binding. Nevertheless, it has been criticised that some judges have taken upon themselves in making law. Subsequently, questioning the separation
use and repetition of ratios and proportions as my major theme in chemistry. Throughout this sequence of instruction, my goal was for the students to seamlessly tie mathematics into the science curriculum. I wanted students to recognize the interconnectedness of the two subjects by emphasizing the association of ratios throughout chemistry and to realize the importance of ratios in real life. Ratios are found in all aspects of life and I wanted to open their eyes to this. Ratios are use in discounts
not all of the policies, that were in place during that time period. I believe the war was not justified for a number of reasons. The ratio of dead to wounded was higher than it was in the civil war which is considered one of the saddest wars in this country’s history. In the civil war, the ratio was one wounded to five killed, where as in the Philippine War, the ratio was one wounded to twelve killed. America instead of trying to peacefully resolve the situation, decided that force was a more potent

shown in Figure 2, after the dilation. My two monkeys are similar because the ratio of their lengths compared to that of the areas fits the Proportional Perimeters and Areas Theorem. Also, their corresponding angles are congruent and their corresponding lengths are proportional, proving that they are similar by definition. I can create a dilation by multiplying each coordinate with the scale factor of ½, so that the ratio of the images is 1 to 2. For example, my original monkey’s tail tip is at point
the ones that do not enable us to calculate all the unknowns by the three equations of equilibrium. 2: Hooke’s Law, Poisson’s Ratio and Modulus of rigidity. Hooke’s law, Poisson’s ratio and shear modulus (modulus of rigidity) all share a common bond. They are considered to be individually the same for a specific material. hooke’s law is formulated as F=kx; Poisson’s ratio is formulated as = (lateral strain / axial strain) and shear modulus is formulated as G= E/(2(1+" " )). 3: polar moment of inertia
Determining the Ratio of Circumference to Diameter of a Circle In determining the ratio of the circumference to the diameter I began by measuring the diameter of one of the si objects which contained circles, then using a string, I wrapped the string around the circle and compared the length of the string, which measured the circumference, to a meter stick. With this method I measured all of the six circles. After I had this data, I went back and rechecked the circumference with a tape measure

at the individual ratios seen in exhibit 1 and comparing it to the industry average shown in exhibit 2 gives a sense of where this company stands. Current ratio and quick ratio are really low and have been decreasing. For 1995, the current ratio is 1.15:1, which is less than the industry average of 1.60:1, however to give a better sense of where this stands in the industry, as seen in exhibit 3, it is actually less than the average of the bottom 25% of the industry. The quick ratio is 0.61 is less
Cash Ratio $7,195 / $152,299 = 0.05 Boot Born reported cash ratio .05 to 1. Boot Barn may have a difficulty paying its liabilities because the ratio is to low. However, Boot Barn had a net cash operation of $155,486,000.00 provided by financial activities. Boot Barn has sufficient cash to meet future financial needs. Current Ratio $203,219 / $152,299 = 1.33 Boot Barn reported a 1.33 current ratio that indicates its current possessions can cover its charges. Boot Barn will be able to pay

Written by Christina Farr, this article details the focuses of Amazon’s move into healthcare, what is to come, and what is currently being discussed as possible options within the healthcare industry. The article also gives input of what the experts think about Amazon and healthcare. Summary of Article This article is
of those three main financial statements. It can also be defined as understanding the risk and profitability of an entity (Ready Ratios, 2013). There are different techniques of financial statement analysis including ratio analysis, vertical or common size analysis and horizontal analysis or trend analysis. Another technique sometimes applied is trend analysis of the ratio analysis (Hancock, Robinson and Bazley, 2015). The major objectives of financial statement analysis are reviewing the company’s
amount of pure citric acid required to neutralise 25cm3 of sodium hydroxide when the citric acid is 100% pure, I should easily be within the confines of my 50 cm3 burette. I will therefore now calculate the required mass of sodium hydroxide: Ratio citric acid : sodium hydroxide 1 : 3 Concentration of sodium hydroxide = 1.0 M Therefore, require concentration of citric acid = 1.0 M /3 = 0.33 M I will be using a volumetric flask which can hold 250cm3 of liquid.
In mathematics, Pi is the symbol denoting the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. The ratio is approximately 3.14159265, pi being an irrational number (one that cannot be expressed as a simple fraction or as a decimal with a finite number of decimal places) and a transcendental number (one without continuously recurrent digits). Electronic computers in the late 20th century have carried pi to more than 100,000,000 decimal places. Using a computer program, I calculated pi into
