Law new is legislation that has been proposed, debated and passed by Congress or another legislative body. The law is a set of official rules that governs behavior within a society or country. The law includes constitutional, statutory and regulatory laws. It also includes case law, which is decided by judges in court cases. The law of a country can be categorized by the level of government that makes it, such as federal, state and local laws. A law can be a statute, which is an official written law that a legislature creates, or a regulation, which is a law of a city or other local government.
New laws and rules are created by local, state and federal governments. In addition to federal law, the city of New York has its own laws and rules. These laws and rules can be found in the Laws of the City of New York and NYC Rules.
