Abstract
The author of this paper argues that judicial ratios can be classified into two different categories: 1) logical ratios, and 2) non-logical ratios. As an example, the author presents four different judicial ratios from four different UK case law. The paper also discusses the criteria which one must be looking at when classifying judicial ratios. The paper borrows ideas from the field of Set Theory and Analytic Philosophy, especially from the work of Bertrand Russell and Ludwig Wittgenstein.
