Abstract

The judge’s judgment is intended to be the definitive means of quelling controversy – the last word. While judgments have always been open to question by various means, the current social and political environment is especially prone to challenging the judgments of courts. This paper will consider the judgment through the lens of ideas about text, truth and legitimacy to explore the pressure such challenges can place on the capacity of law to hold the line in times of uncertainty.
