Plurality decision: Difference between revisions

A '''plurality opinion''' is, in certain legal systems, the [[Legal opinion | opinion]] from one or more [[judge]]s or justices of an [[appellate court]] which provides the rationale for the disposition of an appeal when no single opinion received the support of a majority of the court. The plurality opinion did not receive the support of more than half the justices, but still received more support than any other opinion, excluding those justices dissenting from the holding of the court.
