Judicial reasoning

Reasons constitute the soul of a judicial decision

Judicial process - Reasons constitute the soul of a judicial decision - Without them one is left with a shell. The shell provides neither solace nor satisfaction to the litigant - ‘cut-copy-paste’ - Doing what the High Court has done in the present case presents a veneer of judicial reasoning, bereft of the substance which constitutes the heart of the judicial process - How judges communicate in their judgments is a defining characteristic of the judicial process. While it is important to keep an eye on the statistics on disposal, there is a higher value involved. The quality of justice brings legitimacy to the judiciary- Judicial reasoning.
