question 1 of 10
how do judicial reviews in the majority opinion differ from those in the
dissent?
a. the majority opinion uses the dissent as the basis of the
argument.
b. the majority opinion uses cases with similar conclusions as
support.
c. the majority opinion uses lower courts decisions on the same
case as evidence.
d. the majority opinion uses summaries provided by the case
attorneys.
Judicial reviews in majority opinions rely on precedent—cases with similar legal conclusions—to justify their ruling, as this aligns with legal principles of stare decisis. Dissenting opinions may challenge these precedents or use different reasoning. Option A is incorrect because the majority does not base arguments on dissent. Option C is wrong because lower court decisions on the same case are typically what the higher court is reviewing, not used as evidence by the majority. Option D is incorrect because attorney summaries are not the core basis of a majority opinion's judicial review.
