Also known as legislative act, legislation, act, law
geschreven rechtsregels
A statute is a formal law written and passed by a legislature that declares, commands, or prohibits something. It matters because statutes represent the direct will of elected lawmakers and form the foundation of legal systems, distinct from court decisions and regulations created by executive agencies.

Wetten zijn geschreven rechtsregels. Elke wet is onderdeel van het recht, maar het recht is breder dan enkel wetten. Ook de rechtspraak (jurisprudentie), de rechtsleer en gewoonten zijn rechtsbronnen. De aankondiging van een wet wordt soms een edict genoemd.
