There is a distinct difference between being legal and right. Plenty of judges are wrong.
If they don't get overturned and they are used in future and more cases, it becomes "right"... and that's exactly how it works.
And if such a thing reaches the Supreme Court, and they decide for it, it becomes what I would call "absolutely right" (in our own system of law).
In other words, that's the way the legal system is going to define "right" from then on.... :-)
“If they don’t get overturned and they are used in future and more cases, it becomes “right”... and that’s exactly how it works.”
No, it becomes precedent.
“And if such a thing reaches the Supreme Court, and they decide for it, it becomes what I would call “absolutely right” (in our own system of law).”
BS.
“In other words, that’s the way the legal system is going to define “right” from then on.... :-)”
Uh, no. They’ll define it as “legal”. Anyone who things the two are the same also believes in hypersonic helicopters, so one should consider the source.
