“Case law” describes the entire body of judge-made law and today includes common law and equity precedents. In imprecise and confusing usage the terms “common law” always connoting judge-made law in general as contrasted with statutory law. “Case law” always connotes judge-made law, while “common law” contrast-depending on the meaning intended-describes either the judge-made law in common law subject matters or, more extensively, all judge-made law.

public officials 的效能是有限的。他们（public officials ）公开行为必须符合宪法以及由宪法引申的相关条例。当选的官员在期间必须支持 re-election，当选票记录会被密集的公开复查。指认的官员如果办事是从个人的意志或从指认他的当局出发，可能在他们的表现不令人满意的时候被撤职。除非是（此官员获得了）最高法院的法官长（President of Justices ）或其他联邦官员的终生任职。
