I think it is ( a ) or ( c ) but not sure
What makes precedent important in our justice system?
a) It is the current interpretation of the law.
b) The US justice system does not use precedent.
c) It provides a historical background but is not relevant in current cases.
d) It tells lower court judges how higher courts have interpreted the law but is not applicable to appellate courts.
I vote for a.
Precedent is relative in current cases.
