| dc.description.abstract | Even after the de-colonization, there are a number of countries in the world that still use and apply the system known as the common law in their legal regimes. In these countries statutes enacted by their respective democratic Legislature are, to a great extent, construed according to uniform system of rules, presumptions, principles, and canons evolved over centuries by common law judges.
