Abstract

Precedents in Vietnam nowadays are of great importance for judges to resort to while dealing with civil cases in practice. The issuance of precedents not only enhances the predictability of the law but also fills gaps in the legal system. With widespread dissemination, precedents are increasingly applied in practice and serve as a source in legal research. Therefore, the selection of a judgment or decision to become a precedent needs to be considered carefully and thoroughly. This article comments on Precedent No. 61/2023/AL.

Keywords: Precedent, decision, adopted child, child adoption, termination of child adoption, minor as adopted child.
