Seems like some judges lately are saying, “It was wrong but since I don’t want to be overruled I will let it slide”?

Why not make the higher court actually do the work it takes to overrule? If we are lucky, maybe it’s not a case they take on. If they do and the ruling is overturned, at least you would have done the right thing and tried. And it would be public, the people would know.

I’m sure this judge has good intentions and I certainly don’t understand all the legalities of these things. I also empathize with not wanting the case to be a rollercoaster of rulings and appeals, but it just makes me weep to see these types of rulings.

Am I completely off in my understanding? Please someone with legal knowledge explain to me (in simple terms) these seemingly halfhearted rulings and why it should not make me feel disheartened.
