A PRELIMINARY STUDY ON THE QUANTIFICATION OF THE NORMATIVITY OF THE JUDICIAL PRECEDENT

This work faces the need to scientifically measure and quantify the normative value of each new decision. The access to the Supreme Court, the constitutionally essential guarantee of the Italian justice system, depends on the recognition of a "judgement" as a guiding principle. This rule raises the need for an appropriate measurement, which is therefore such as to assign a normative quotient with non-arbitrary criteria and which takes into account all the incident elements in the elaboration of the marginal normative range of the single decision.
