RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Great Story on Medicinal coverageMy understanding of case law is you need to have a few cases that have been passed in order to have a precedent set. The law is the law, once you have enough case law going against the law, then any good lawyer can circumvent the law based on case law.
The reason I think you need more than one is because you can have anomalies. Anyone trying to use case law to get out of something or to get something to happen in their favor needs more than 1 to run with. Any good defense will take the case law they have put forward and pick it apart and prove how the situations were different in the other case. That is why if you have multiple, it becomes much more difficult to do that.
Just my understanding. I don't have a legal background. I spend a decent amount of time in court as I charge people as part of my work, but, I am only in court as an evidence provider and a witness (basically eyes and ears).
