How judges apply the law to specific disputes may depend in part on
their personal philosophical views. Therefore, a proponent of the Historical School of
jurisprudence may decline to move away from past rules because of his/her hesitance
to move away from time tested methods, while a proponent of Positivism will follow
that theory of law and thus weigh the costs and benefits to all parties involved before
rendering a decision. Yet, the decisions each reaches may be the same.
