well-founded [or substantiated] decision
Explanation:
choice of resolution or decision depends on context and I cannot think of a way to explain the difference. The idea of course is that a judge or any authority must justify or substantiate his/her decision, can't just say "yes" or "no."

well-grounded decision


Explanation:
well-grounded decision : my suggestion !

Example sentence(s):
  • The challenge of the Constitutional Court judge shall be performed after hearing his opinions, by a well-grounded decision of the Court.
  • I am sure that if Parliament is able to take a very well grounded decision potentially on issues as complex as for instance human fertilisation and embryo research
