480.0. "Judgement vs. View - what's the difference?" by SLDA3::MATHUR () Tue Mar 08 1988 09:49

The difference betweeen a judgement and a view/opinion.

For example, when a judge expresses his/her VIEW, the view doesn't impact
anything. However, when he passes a JUDGEMENT, he may be affecting the lives of
the defendant and/or the plaintiff. 

What does it mean when you or I say, "I don't like Jim_bob."

    Is that a judgement or a view or is there no difference?

    	A judgement is conclusive in nature while a view is merely an
    observation.
    
    	Note that "I dont like Jim_bob" is an awareness of one's
    reactionary feelings toward the observation, while "Jim_bob is
    an ...." is conclusive in context.

    I agree with .1  but only to a certain extent! A judgement has a
    degree of finality to it as opposed to a view, but that does not
    mean that a view in not final and binding. In my opinion a judgement
    is just a stronger form of view.
480.3Evidence and presidence for judgements?PSG::PURMALCa plane pour moiThu Mar 10 1988 18:3813
        I would venture to say that judicially a judgement must be
    supported by facts (laws, previous rulings, etc.) whereas a view
    or opinion need not have precidence.
    
        For example a judge may have the view that all litterbugs should
    be forced to eat their litter, but they may not pass that as judgement
    because the laws in force do not support that judgement.
    
    
        Ouside the judical arena judgements and views are close, but
    a judgement implies the inclusion of evidence.
