Everything you described, in its totality, describes a common law system.
Really?! How is that? How can Constitutional law be part of a common law system?

Can you show a single Supreme Court ruling on a Constitutional issue where case law and precedence was not a factor?
If we were not a common law country, why are eligibility lawyers using Minor? Are you saying it is a binding precedent on a Constitutional matter?
