Why "Decision 17161" ISN'T Binding for Other 1948 Cases and Jure Sanguinis

The Italian Citizenship Podcast

Italy's judicial system has always been a tapestry of rich history and intricate legal nuances. Recently, it's been abuzz with discussions around a particular decision: 17161, passed on June 15th, 2023. On the surface, it might seem like just another ruling from the Italian Supreme Court, the Corte di Cassazione.

While many judicial systems around the world operate on the principle of binding precedents, Italy does things their own way. But how does it differ? Does a ruling from the Supreme Court carry the weight someone more familiar with the US system expect?

Moreover, if you're seeking citizenship through consulates or municipalities, how does this decision impact you?
