    Statutory law comes into existence when a legislature passes a statute. This statute is then included in the federal code of laws or the relevant state code of laws. Common laws are the rules of law announced in court decisions. These rules include interpretations of constitutional provisions, of statutes enacted by legislatures, and of regulations created by administrative agencies. If there is a conflict, common law or previously decided cases will take precedence.…

    Statutory Interpretation

    • 10 Pages

    The Supreme Court has expressed an interest “that Congress be able to legislate against a background of clear interpretive rules, so that it may know the effect of the language it adopts.” This report identifies and describes some of the more important rules and conventions of interpretation that the Court applies. Although this report focuses primarily on the Court’s methodology in construing statutory text, the Court’s approach to reliance on legislative history are also briefly described. In analyzing a statute’s text, the Court is guided by the basic principle that a statute should be read as a harmonious whole, with its separate parts being interpreted within their broader statutory context in a manner that furthers statutory purpose. The various canons of interpretation and presumptions as to substantive results are usually subordinated to interpretations that further a clearly expressed congressional purpose. The Court frequently relies on “canons” of construction to draw inferences about the meaning of statutory language. For example, in considering the meaning of particular words and phrases, the Court distinguishes between terms of art that may have specialized meanings and other words that are ordinarily given a dictionary definition. Other canons direct that all words of a statute be given effect if possible, that a term used more than once in a statute should ordinarily be given the same meaning throughout, and that specific statutory language ordinarily trumps conflicting general language. “Ordinarily” is a necessary caveat, since any of these “canons” gives way if context reveals an evident contrary meaning. Not infrequently the Court stacks the deck, and subordinates the general, linguistic canons of statutory…

    Law It Act

    New communication systems and digital technology have made dramatic changes in the way we live and the need to transact our daily business. There is a remarkable change in the way people transact business. Businessmen are increasingly using computers to create, transcript and store information in electronic form instead of traditional paper documents. It is cheaper, easier to store and retrieve and speedier to communicate. Although people are aware o the advantages which the electronic form of business provides, people are reluctant to conduct business or conclude and transact in the electronic form due to lack of appropriate legal framework. Electronic commerce eliminates need for paper based transaction. The two principle hurdles which stand in the way of facilitating electronic commerce and electronic governance are the requirements of writing and signature for legal recognition. At present many legal provisions assume the existence of paper based records and documents which should bear signatures. The Law of Evidence is traditionally based upon paper based records and oral testimony. Hence, to facilitate e-commerce, the need for legal changes has become an urgent necessity. International trade through the medium of e-commerce is growing…

    A) Under the Golden Rule, “it is generally considered to be an extension of the literal rule. In its general expression it is applied in circumstances where the application of the literal rule is likely to result in, what appears to the court, to be an obviously absurd result” (Source B). For example, in R v. Allen (1872), the word ‘marry’ was interpreted as meaning ‘to go through a ceremony of marriage’, because using it literal meaning would produce the absurd result that the offence of bigamy would be impossible to commit.…
