Abstract |
|
|
| In this paper, we study the role of case law as a source for legal rules, particularly in cases of ambiguity or deficiency of legislative provisions. The Jordanian Court of Cassations use of discretion to interpret or complete provisions in various cases serves as the focus of this study. Three topics are addressed: deducting blood-money from the compensation amount, nullification of a real estate sale contract after fifteen years and granting compensation for moral damage in cases of contractual liability.
