Is the highest court bound by the Montana family court's earlier decision? No, because the decision was made in a lower court.

It is a court of appeals that reviews decisions of general jurisdiction of the trial courts of Montana, and sometimes, specific legislative courts. Montana's citizens elect the justices of the court.
