If a court decides under popular pressure, which principle would weaken?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Impartial justice

The correct answer is A: impartial justice would be weakened. A court should decide cases according to the Constitution, law, evidence, and fair procedure rather than according to applause, anger, public pressure, or the popularity of one side. Impartiality means that the court does not favour a person or group and gives each side a fair hearing. The steps are simple: identify the influence, which is popular pressure; ask what courts must resist; connect independence from outside pressure with impartial justice. Option A is correct because a decision based on popularity may ignore law and treat parties unequally. Option B is wrong because adult franchise means the right of eligible adult citizens to vote, not the fairness of judicial decisions. Option C is wrong because parliamentary majority concerns the number of legislative members supporting a position. Option D is wrong because party campaigning is a political activity and is not the principle being tested. Judicial independence does not mean judges are above the law; it means they can apply the law without improper influence. Memory cue: courts follow law, not applause.
