hello! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿฟ law school experiencer here, chiming in to clarify the difference between a โ€œrulingโ€ and a โ€œjudgementโ€. Both are statements by the court, usually giving a directive to be followed. However, a ruling appears in the middle of the case โ€” say, after a mention or hearing โ€” and a judgment is the final statement of the court on the case, which appears at the very end of the case. It is judgements which are seen as significant to the law, which are quoted & referenced, which are what we were reading together in this article.

Iโ€™m also chiming in to say, imagine the Attorney General calling you โ€œa cry babyโ€ in court documents ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ as part of the Stateโ€™s defense!! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ omg now Iโ€™m going to read the full case โ€” because also WHAT A STRATEGY on the part of LEGABIBO & the applicant Letsweletse!

The Botswana Case is hilarious to read. In so many ways.
