The court hears a discrimination case in which they are asked to decide whether local anti-discrimination laws protect against a person being fired because they have red hair. the court holds that since irish people are more likely to have red hair, this is an example of national origin discrimination and anti-discrimination laws should apply. the legislature, following the court ruling, passes a statute saying hair color is not covered by anti-discrimination laws. the legislature's action is an example of:

Revoking common law by new statutory law

Explanation:

Common law is a term used to refer to a decision, made by judges, which depends on the decision made in previous cases and which will influence similar cases in the future. This decision is unprecedented, and judges in this case have all the authority to create a right. In the case shown in the question above, the judges decided that to protect a person who was fired by red hair, a right would be created against an anti-discrimination law.

However, this common law was replaced by a statute law, when after the court, the legislature stated that red hair is not a factor that can be used to invoke a statutory law, which are laws written and approved by federal, state, and local legislatures.
