A: The main sources of Business Law are UK Parliament (West Minister), European Parliament and Scots Legislation. Also, the others are Judicial Precedent, Institutional Writers and Custom.
2. Judicial Precedent is Superior to Statutory Law. Do you agree with this statement?
A: I disagree; the judicial precedent is formed from a case law, it’s known to be the most important source in common law.

Criminal law is something that is very important because it protects the good people in society from the ones who tend to break the law. Each jurisdiction has its own laws and the way things are handled, but overall each jurisdiction has the same basis of criminal law to protect the people and to prosecute the criminals.
Criminal law sets procedures for arrests, searches and seizures, and interrogations. It also establishes the rules that are set in place for a trial and punishment for offenders. Some of the sources of criminal law are common law, criminal statues, and the Model Penal code. Common law is a judge made law that was created by judges by declaring that certain crimes were...

Natural Law – Essay #1
Cicero felt that Natural law is something that was created divinely before humanity was capable of doing so for itself. It is a morality ingrained in us since creation, before there was any set government or politician to create laws. “This power is not only older than peoples and governments but is of the same age as the God who protects and rules both Heaven and earth.” Though he concedes that, “Men introduced such laws to insure the protection of citizens and states, as well as the peaceful and happy lot of mankind.”[1] So to Cicero, as I would believe to any ancient mind, since Natural Law is divine it supersedes anything...

LAW AND ENVIROMENT
Environmental law is a collective term describing international treaties (conventions), statutes, regulations, and common law or national legislation (where applicable) that operates to regulate the interaction of humanity and the natural environment, toward the purpose of reducing the impacts of human activity.
The environment law may be divided into two major subjects: pollution control and remediation, and resource conservation, individual exhaustion. The limitations and expenses that such laws may impose on commerce, and the often unquantifiable (non-monetized) benefit of environmental protection, have generated and continue to generate significant controversy.

If I were suing a customer and I received a notice stating that the customer is filing for bankruptcy the first thing I would do is try to find out what type of bankruptcy the client is filing for.

Classifications of Law
The classification of law starts with the understanding of the two major legal systems, common law and civil law. Common Law is the legal system that emphasizes the role of judges in deciding the meaning of laws and how they apply as a whole. Civil law is relies more on legislation than judicial decisions to determine what the law is. Like common law nations decide the facts in a disputed case, but civil law courts are not obligated to follow recent judicial decisions or presidents. (O. Lee Reed, 2013)

It was first published in 1961 and develops Hart's theory of legal positivism (the view that laws are rules made by human beings and that there is no inherent or necessary connection between law and morality) within the framework of analytic philosophy. In this work, Hart sets out to write an essay of descriptive sociology and analytical jurisprudence.

‘English law is based on an objective theory of contract. The commercial advantage of this approach is that it promotes certainty and predictability in the resolution of contractual disputes. Also as a matter of principle, it is not unfair to impute to the parties to a contract or a potential contact an intention that in the event of a dispute a neutral judge should decide the case applying an objective standard of reasonableness.’
