COURT PRECEDENT IN UZBEKISTAN: THE DOCTRINE OF LEGAL CERTAINTY AND STARE DECISION

This article discusses the prospects of applying court precedent in the circumstances of Uzbekistan. Comparative analysis and research were carried out on the examples of foreign legal systems belonging to the Anglo-Saxon and Romano-German legal families. In the Republic of Uzbekistan, the system of “written law” applies, and unlike the legal systems of the United Kingdom and the United States, this system of court precedent does not have legal significance; that is, a court decision made in a certain case does not have legal significance in another similar case. For this reason, the article analyzes the doctrines of court precedent and explains which legal doctrine can be used to introduce court precedent into the legal system of Uzbekistan, which belongs to the Romano-German legal family. In Germany and Russia, which are part of the Romano-Germanic legal family, like Uzbekistan, court precedent is not a law but a source of law that does not have a normative legal color after the law. Due to this, proposals and recommendations were made regarding the legal mechanisms for its implementation in our republic.
