stare decisis 

A system of binding precedent whereby the legal reasoning used to reach a decision in one case shall be followed in subsequent cases which require similar legal considerations to be made.

It only exists in common law, not codified, legal systems.
Where one judge follows the decision in a previous case is an example of stare decisis being applied.

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
