Case Law Legal Definition

© By Carol M. Highsmith – Library of Congress Catalog

Case Law legal definition: Case Law is law based on previous decisions of appellate courts. In other words, case law is based on judicial decisions rather than on constitutions, statutes, or regulations. Case law concerns unique disputes resolved by courts using the concrete facts of a case. By contrast, statutes and regulations are written abstractly. Case law is also used interchangeably with common law.
