Regulations: Also Called Subordinate or Delegated

Chapter 4 cases cover civil, criminal, and administrative law. The abbreviation R in legal cases stands for Regina or Rex, as the Crown represents the state in criminal cases. Ratio decidendi is the legal principle and reasoning behind a judge's decision.
