    I’m using both the Kaplan & BPP Corporate Law textbooks as well as the Opentuition notes, and I keep seeing conflicting things on whether The High Court is bound by itself and if the Supreme Court is bound by itself.

    It’s clear that the Court of Appeal is bound by itself and that the European Court of Justice is not bound by itself but there’s confusion around The High Court & The Supreme Court.

    High Court? No confusion there! It IS bound by its own previous decisions

    Supreme Court? Used to be bound but then, relatively recently, decided that it shouldn’t be bound. However, I believe that I’m correct in this, it IS required to make decisions that are not incompatible with European law even though the UK is no longer part of the European Union

    OK?

    OK, so to confirm: The High Court is bound by its previous decisions and the Supreme Court is not.
