peer agreement (net): +1相同等级的法庭 Explanation: Your translation of this term is correct, but the whole sentence is a little jumbled. As a whole, the sentence is saying that a court's ruling is bound by rulings made in precedents, generally those made by higher courts and courts of equal standing in hierarchy. (比这个法院(it)更高级的法院和同级的法院) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratio_decidendi -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs 40 mins (2005-09-03 15:28:39 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- >>> 该过程依赖由来已久的法庭等级，并且在运作时普遍受制于上级法庭判决中所蕴含的判决理由和法律规则，通常也受同级法庭的约束. Yes, much better. The overall meaning is correct now. "generally" means 一般、通常 in this context IMO. So maybe you could change the structure of the original sentence this way and make it more concise 该过程依赖着已建立的法院等级，且在通常运作时受制于上级法院和平级法院曾作出判决所蕴含的定案根据和法律规则 |
