betrays that they've never examined legal proceedings in either system.
Contracts apparently don't exist in civil law, and when asked to explain the differences between "Jurisprudence Constante" and "Stare Decisis", I guess "Jurisprudence Constante" means precedent doesn't exist!
I think they're confused on the differing weight and roles of case law in rendering decisions between the two systems, and over corrected.
