The first is that previous court judgments can be „sources“ of general rules and standards that will constraint the courts, as decision-makers, even if they are not formally established as legally binding. The second is that it should be so for several reasons – the most important being predictability and equality.\u0000\u0000In this part of the article the concepts of separation of powers, types of state functions, and judicial power are explained. The reasons why the judicial power can perform the law-making function in a legal system in which it is not formally established are presented. As an illustration of how the system in which courts perform a law-making function works, the application of the doctrine of stare decisis in the USA is described. Finally, several decisions of the Constitutional Court of Serbia that indicate similar practice in Serbian legal system are analyzed.","PeriodicalId":32310,"journal":{"name":"Anali Pravnog Fakulteta u Beogradu","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45354872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unlike the Serbian legislator, the legislators in some modern European legal systems have envisaged the inheritability of the legal duty of support, among others, for a divorced spouse. These essentially different approaches to regulating the issue of inheritability of the legal duty to support a divorced spouse, are the subject of the author’s attention. In addition to trying to draw a conclusion regarding which of the mentioned approaches to the legal regulation of the issue of heritability of the legal support duty fulfills entirely or largely the function of post-marital solidarity, the author considers the possibility of redesigning and amending the family and inheritance regulations of the Republic of Serbia.","PeriodicalId":32310,"journal":{"name":"Anali Pravnog Fakulteta u Beogradu","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45474638","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
