HELP ASAP Describe the major parts of a Court decision.

The major parts of a Court decision are in order. These parts include 1. Citation

2. Party names

3. Docket number

4. Headnotes

5. Syllabus (summary of the case by the court)

6. Judges

7. Text of opinion (reasoning)

8. Decision

Explanation: 1. Case citation is known to be a system used by legal professionals to identify the past court case decisions, either in series of books called reporters or law reports or in a neutral style that identifies a decision regardless of where it is reported.  

2. A person, business, or other legal entity that files a lawsuit (the plaintiff or petitioner) or defends against one (the defendant or respondent). This can also mean a person or other legal entity that enters into an agreement. In the trial court, the first name listed is the plaintiff, the party bringing the suit. The name following the "v" is the defendant. If the case is appealed, as in this example, the name of the petitioner (appellant) is usually listed first, and the name of the respondent (appellee) is listed second.

3. On a list of legal cases to be heard by a court The judge had to postpone some of the cases on the docket.

4. Headnotes are summaries of the issues in a case. They are not actually part of the opinion. Each headnote is numbered. Headnotes in a West reporter address a specific point of law in the case, including the relevant facts regarding that point of law.

5. The syllabus appears first, before the main opinion. It is not part of the official opinion, but rather, a summary added by the Court to help the reader better understand the case and the decision. The syllabus outlines the facts of the case and the path that the case has taken to get to the Supreme Court.

6. The role of the judge is to keep the order or to tell you the sentence of the person. In cases with a jury, the judge is responsible for ensuring that the law is followed, and the jury determines the facts. In cases without a jury, the judge also is the finder of fact.

7. The term "opinions," as used here, refers to several types of writing by the Justices. The most well known are the opinions of the Court announced in cases in which the Court has heard oral argument. Each sets out the Court's judgment and its reasoning.

8.  The official decision of a court finally determining the respective rights and claims of the parties to a suit. This can also mean the legal authority of a court to hear and decide a case.
