JURISPRUDENCE
(bouvier) | JURISPRUDENCE. The science of the law. By science here, is understood that
connexion of truths which is founded on principles either evident in
themselves, or capable of demonstration; a collection of truths of the same
kind, arranged in methodical order. In a more confined sense, jurisprudence
is the practical science of giving a wise interpretation to the laws, and
making a just application of them to all cases as they arise. In this sense,
it is the habit of judging the same questions in the same manner, and by
this course of judgments forming precedents. 1 Ayl. Pand. 3 Toull. Dr. Civ.
Fr. tit. prel. s. 1, n. 1, 12, 99; Merl. Rep. h.t.; 19 Amer. Jurist, 3.
