Not all cases are published, howeer, and there is considerable debate in many jurisdictions about the precedential alue of unpublished decisions. 不是所有的案例会出版，然而，关于未出版的判例的先例性价值在诸多管辖地有着大量的争论。
Decisions by courts do not establish legal precedents, but important decisions by the SPC are highlighted in official guidance and have precedential effects. 法院的裁决并不构成司法判例，但是最高人民法院的重大决策则会成为官方参考依据并有判例作用。
