How is common law created?

Common law is created through judicial decisions made by courts, which interpret and apply statutes and legal principles to specific cases. As judges issue rulings, they establish precedents that become part of the legal framework, guiding future cases with similar circumstances. Over time, these precedents accumulate, leading to a body of law that evolves through judicial interpretation rather than through legislative statutes. This process emphasizes the role of case law in shaping legal standards and practices.
