Supreme court From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. (Redirected from Supreme Court The supreme court in some countries, provinces, and states, is the highest court in that jurisdiction and functions as a court of last resort whose rulings cannot be appealed. In the United States , for example, there is a federal Supreme Court as well as supreme courts within most of the states. However, some jurisdictions do not use the phrase "Supreme Court" in naming their highest courts, as described below. Although some countries and subordinate states follow the American model of having a supreme court that interprets that jurisdiction 's constitution , most (including all of the formerly communist Central and Eastern European nations except Estonia ) follow the Austrian model of a separate constitutional court (first developed in the Austrian Constitution of Many higher courts create through their decisions case law applicable within their respective jurisdictions or interpret codal provisions in civil-law countries to maintain a uniform interpretation: Most common-law nations have the doctrine of stare decisis in which the rulings decisions ) of higher courts constitute binding precedent upon courts of equal or lower status within their jurisdiction.

Prior to April 17, 1982, the written component of the constitution consisted primarily of three British statutes enacted by the Parliament of Great Britain. The three statutes - the Colonial Laws Validity Act of 1865, the British North America Act of 1867 ("B.N.A. Act"), and the Statute of Westminster of 1931 - provided the basic framework for the Canadian constitution. The B.N.A. Act was the most important component of the written constitution. Any law passed by the Canadian Parliament or a legislature had to conform to the jurisdictional constraints set out in the B.N.A. Act.

The law, as we know it, is statutory. The courts still decide cases, but the law interpreted and applied is statutory law. Education law is replete with state and federal legislation. The shorthand terms Title VII and Title IX and the acronyms IDEA and ERISA are workaday words in the school attorney's glossary. Indeed, the starting point for any legal inquiry is, what statute or statutes are involved, and how are they worded. "Individuals with Disabilities Education Act" (IDEA) will be used as an example of how to locate statutes as this Act enjoys more than its share of litigation, hence its selection.
