It
is an abbreviation of the Latin maxim “Stare Decisis Et Non Quieta Movere”
which literally mean “Do not move settled things”. The doctrine thus means, “To
stand by decided thing or to uphold previous ruling or recognize precedents”.
It also represents a principle of law settled by the courts long ago and
followed by series of the decisions for a long period where the facts are
substantially the same. It is binding in nature and should be strictly adhered
to by the Courts.
