The law of [[Packilvania]] ([[Packilvanian]]: (''luKhanon aBakhilfaniya'') consists of statute, judicial precedent, religious law and customary law. Customary law is law that emanates from long-observed tribal traditions. Judicial precedent arises from the substantive legal interpretation of legal matters by the judiciary. Religious law arises from the dogma, rules and customs of religious communities as enumerated by scripture, ritual etc. In contrast statute consists of laws emanating from the Constitution via the [[Sultan of Packilvania|Crown]].
The Constitution is the highest law in the country. This means that no other law may contravene the Constitution. Furthermore, it states that the Constitution may only be amended by the consent of the Parliament and the Sultan. The Constitution also states that the Supreme Court shall have the final authority to interpret the application of the Constitution. It states that the Crown shall have the power to make law by statute which may supersede all other laws insofar as the Crown abides by the Constitution.
