===Statute===
Statute in Packilvania is passed by the Legislative Council of the [[Parliament of Packilvania]] and signed into law by the [[Sultan of Packilvania]]. The [[Council of Ministers of Packilvania]] has the power to propose laws. This can emanate from the internal processes of the executive branch or from the instruction of the Sultan. Statutes in Packilvania are called acts of Parliament. Proposals for statutes are known as bills. Statutes are numbered based on the order in which they received Royal assent and the year in which that assent was received. The national budget is a type of statute which requires the approval of the Consultative Assembly. Treaties in Packilvania are ratified by the Sultan however some statutes might need to be passed to bring effect to their provisions.
===Decree===
A decree is an order or formal instruction issued by the Sultan. Decrees can be issued for issues such as internal boundaries, the appointment of executive, judicial, legislative, ecclesiastical and military state officials and compositions of executive and bureaucratic agencies, territorial waters, and matters relating to the [[Imperial Court of Packilvania]], issuing of passports, declaration of war, ratification of treaties, and imperial family, titles and ranks of the [[nobility of Packilvania]] etc.
===Case law===
Case law is created by the [[judiciary of Packilvania]]. When a court states its verdict on a case, it provides an explanation of what the law means and how it applies with respect to the facts of the case presented. This part of the verdict becomes part of the law. Specific matters relating to the case or opinions about the law in general inspired by but not exclusively or specifically restricted to the facts of the case are not binding. Case law can only be overturned by passing statute or decree or by the decision of a higher court.
===Delegated law===
Delegated law is any law that arises from statute or a decree. This arises when a higher structure gives a lower structure the power to pass laws over a small area of the government's work.
* Regulations are issued by government agencies and executive departments.
* Provincial laws are passed by the Legislatures of the provinces.
