Question

how many cases may a judge cite as precedent when formulating case decisions?
one
fewer than ten
twenty five
an unlimited number

Explanation:

In legal systems that follow the principle of stare decisis (precedent - based decision - making), judges are not restricted to a fixed number of precedents. They can draw on past cases (precedents) from relevant jurisdictions. There is no upper - limit set on the number of cases a judge can cite. A judge may look at one case if it is highly relevant and dispositive, but in complex cases, they may consider many more.

Answer:

an unlimited number
