Explanation

Verified

Common Law was the term, which has emerged from the English Legal System. In England, the successor of Normnas started unifying the country. Unification can be achieved only when we see the country as a whole and provide equal wisdom to the public. So to provide wisdom there was a need of courts. These courts were termed as Kings Courts. Also there was a need of set of rules to operate these courts so that dispute can be sought with wisdom. These common rules were termed as common law. Latter, all those countries which were ruled by English adopted the Common Rules. This was termed as Common Law Tradition. Or we can say it became the tradition that every country which was ruled by English started adopting the Common Law of England.
US legal system is also based on English Legal System.
Courts developed the common rules based on actual legal controversies. It became easier for the judges to decide the similar cases in similar way and new case with precautions. This helped the judges in marinating the consistency in judgements.
