Precedent and reasoning go hand in hand. Lord Devlin says that he
would prefer to use a precedent as a mountaineer’s rope rather than a
hangmen’s rope. A precedent embalms a principle; it constitutes the
foundation of legal reasoning. A well-trained judge would prefer to follow
a precedent, for it provides him with the “most conclusive logic”, in the
words of Andrew Goodman, a barrister of repute. But the use of
precedents requires care. One could easily get lost in the maze of
precedents. A precedent many times inspires you to chart unknown
territory. It may help you improvise and innovate. But in all this, there has
to be a sense of proportion and as member of the Tribunal you should
be able to keep the precedents to the minimum, since your order must
contain all the relevant factual findings and the mandate of the Act for
you is to find the facts. Judge Hammerton it was who said that “Get the
facts first and the law will follow”.
