1. D (Also known as Doctrine of Precedent)

Stare decisis is a Latin term ("let that stand which has been stated") used in common law to express the notion that prior court decisions must be recognized as precedents, according to case law. It is the Latin term for the 'doctrine of precedent.

2. B (Letters Patent - authority from Britain for the Govenor to make laws etc)

Page 10 of the Heinemann textbook. It was the first law issued for the new colony from Britain.

3. C (Definition for utilitarianism)

4. Courts are bound by decisions from higher courts only. For the sake of uniformity they generally follow precedents from the same level. Decisions from the same level or from other jurisdictions are "persuasive" only..
