If there is one area that confuses most people's rights when it comes to the right is the distinction between common and statutory law applied in civil litigation and, indeed, the legal world as a whole. In this article we take a stab at what the difference in a way that is very understandable.
The first start is with a definition of each. Ironically, it is also the easiest way to understand the differences. The common law is aCollection of case law, the Court has decided to be one of. Statutory law is a collection of more hard and fast that the body created by legislation and the signature of a manager. Some examples in the explanation of each.

The doctors are about the cost of insurance claims, because it makes it almost impossible to consider the practice of medicine. Legislature required and is a law that says every sentence to $ 750,000 will be cut off one of medical malpractice shall not exceed. If a Governor Executive Leader [or President], this law is signed'Law and the courts must follow it.
Both types of law are subject to review by the appellate courts and ultimately the State Supreme Court or Federal Court. If said court found the lawunconstitutional, is valid to explain. Of the two, the law office successfully challenged the most.
