Question

A legal system where legislative bodies generally enact specific legal rules giving judges or courts considerable authority in interpreting these rules based on precedent and other factors is called a _____ law legal system.

Answer 1

Common

Step-by-step explanation:

Common law is a set of laws established by judicial authorities based on past events. These are informal unwritten laws that courts are allowed to use if similar case arises. So decision can be taken based on precedent.

This is used if existing written laws are not enough to decide the fate of a case. It is at the discretion of the judge to interpret the precedent and apply in the current situation.
