The term may also refer to the collective body of case law that a court should consider when interpreting the law. When a precedent establishes an important legal principle, or represents new or changed law on a particular issue, that precedent is often known as a landmark decision.","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","source":"legal","source_url":"https://github.com/RinkeHoekstra/lkif-core"}
