Utförlikt

Utförlikt is a Swedish term that broadly translates to "similar in execution" or "likewise done." It's often used in a legal or procedural context to indicate that a specific action, process, or outcome is comparable to another that has already been established or described. The word itself is a compound of "utför" (to carry out, to perform) and "likt" (like, similar).

The concept of "utförlikt" is not tied to a single specific legal doctrine but rather appears as a descriptive phrase in various contexts. For instance, a court might state that a certain evidence was handled "utförlikt" another case, implying that the methodology and treatment of the evidence were analogous. Similarly, in administrative procedures, a decision might be described as having been made "utförlikt" a previous ruling if the underlying reasoning and steps taken are the same.

The practical implication of "utförlikt" is that it can serve to streamline proceedings or create precedent without necessarily requiring an explicit citation of a formal legal principle. It suggests a degree of consistency and predictability in how actions are performed or decisions are reached within a given system. While not a legal term of art in itself, it points to the importance of established practice and the expectation that similar situations will be handled in a similar manner.
