History

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

In a legal term, Dissent is defined as an opinion in at the end of a legal case written by one or more justices to express their disagreement against the viewpoint of the majority during the rulings of a court judgment.

Consequently, the purpose of dissent is to endeavors to solicit for relatively acceptable court decision. The power of dissent, however, lies in its capacity to impact the forthcoming but similar lawsuits.

Hence, the power of dissent is the ability to influence the public belief, give rise to civil societies and movement, and perhaps reverse or improve the outcome of a court judgment and legislation in the future years.

A vivid example is the case of Louis Brandeis’s 1928 dissent in Olmstead v. United States.
