“Let the decision stand in rightful place” is found in which of the following:
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Stare decisis expresses adherence to decided cases so that settled legal principles guide later similar cases. This promotes consistency and predictability in judicial decisions. The ratio decidendi is the legal reason that supplies a precedent, while obiter dicta are incidental observations; res judicata instead prevents re-litigation of an already adjudicated dispute.
