Dicta are judicial opinions expressed by the judges on points that do not necessarily arise in the case .
2 .
Dicta are regarded as of little authority ,
on account of the manner in which they are delivered ;
it frequently happening that they are given without much reflection ,
at the bar ,
without previous examination . "
If ,"
says Huston ,
J .,
in Frants v .
Brown ,

Rawle ,
292 , "
general dicta in cases turning on special circumstances are to be considered as establishing the law ,
nothing is yet settled ,
or can be long settled ." "
What I have said or written ,
out of the case trying ,"
continues the learned judge , "
or shall say or write ,
under such circumstances ,
maybe taken as my opinion at the time ,
without argument or full consideration ;
but I will never consider myself bound by it when the point is fairly trying and fully argued and considered .
And I protest against any person considering such obiter dicta as my deliberate opinion ."
And it was considered by another learned judge .
Mr .
Baron Richards ,
to be a "
great misfortune that dicta are taken down from judges ,
perhaps incorrectly ,
and then cited as absolute propositions ."
