Abstract
This paper shall contrast two methods of judging, the first method being one that emphasises justice as the primary reason for the judge deciding in the manner that he/she did- justiceoriented judging- and the second being one that emphasises the promotion of certainty in the law- a legal certainty-oriented approach to judging. Additionally this paper shall tackle the implications of the prioritisation of justice-oriented judging on the legislature and the judiciary on the legal system.
