British Common Law

British Common Law is a legal system developed through court decisions and judicial rulings rather than solely through written statutes. It emphasizes precedents, meaning that past court decisions inform current cases. Judges interpret laws and can create new legal principles based on their rulings, which later courts may follow. This system provides flexibility and adaptability, allowing the law to evolve over time. Common Law coexists with statutory law, which is created by Parliament, offering a comprehensive legal framework that governs various aspects of life in the United Kingdom.
