Turkey is a civil law country whose legal system is mostly based
on Roman law.
The main source of law is legislation rather than the court
precedent. The Grand National Assembly of Turkey is the main
legislative authority in Turkey.
Court precedents are not binding for the other Turkish courts,
except for the decisions of the General Assembly on the Unification
of Judgments of the Court of Cassation. However, the first instance
courts and regional courts of appeal are likely to follow the
jurisprudence of other chambers of the Court of Cassation. Doctrine
is another important source for the interpretation of the law.
