Not to disagree but English Common Law does also have an impact on not only the Supreme Court but on the lesser courts. Precedents still currently matter even if they were decided when we were still a colony.
Eh, precedents matter, but only to the extent that the Supreme Court thinks they matter. There's no Super Supreme English Common Law Court to tell the Supreme Court they need to reconsider the case in light of whatever colonial law.
