Framework
What is the Legal Framework?
The legal framework refers to the system of
laws, regulations, and principles that govern
our society. It provides a structure within
which individuals, organizations, and
governments operate, defining their rights,
responsibilities, and obligations.
The Sources of
Law
The legal framework is built upon various sources
of law. These sources include:

 Constitutional Law
 Statutory Law
 Case Law
 Administrative Law
Constitutional Law

the body of rules, doctrines, and


practices that govern the
operation of political
communities.
 Statutory
Law
Statutes are laws enacted by
legislative bodies at the federal, state,
and local levels. They address a wide
range of issues and provide specific
guidelines and requirements.
Case Law
Case law, also known as common law or
judge-made law, refers to legal
precedents established through court
decisions. These decisions interpret and
apply statutes and constitutional
provisions to specific cases.
 Administrative Law

Administrative agencies, such as the


Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or
the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC), create regulations and rules that
govern specific industries or sectors.
