Answer to Question 1

False

Answer to Question 2

U.S. law is based primarily on English common law, a system where laws were developed through the courts and through case decisions. The common law was based on the concept of precedent or stare decisis, which means it stands decided.. This refers to the fact that a particular factual dispute was decided in one way by the court, and if the same factual dispute arises again, it must be resolved the same way. Statutory law refers to laws passed by the legislature. At the federal law, statutes are enacted by Congress.
