| | Statute law is to be distinguished chiefly from common law, which may be defined as the body of legal rules derived from judicial decisions and custom. | | | Statutes that explain or clarify previous enactments or rules of common law are sometimes called declaratory statutes. | | | In order to guide the courts many important statutes contain (usually in a preamble) a statement of the abuses that the legislation is intended to cure or of the general legislative intent. |

| | Legal Definition of Statute |
| | Among the civilians, the term statute is generally applied to all sorts of laws and regulations; every provision of law which ordains, permits, or prohibits anything is a statute without considering from what source it arises. | | | The term remedial statute is also applied to those acts which give the party injured a remedy, and in some respects those statutes are penal. | | | Remedial statutes are those which are made to supply such defects, and abridge such superfluities in the common law as may have been discovered. |

| | [legacy] A Proposed Federal Criminal Statute Addressing the Solicitation of Commercial Terrorism Through the Internet |
| | While both statutes permit a person to avoid criminal liability by manifesting a voluntary and complete renunciation of criminal intent, n85 the Model Statute states that the renunciation is insufficient if the defendant simply removes, retracts, or deletes the solicitation from the Internet. | | | The enactment of the proposed federal statute to criminalize Internet sabotage fills a glaring gap in the federal criminal code, a gap that did not exist even a few years ago, but one that was created by the lightning-fast developments of the information age. | | | Thus, a person violates the statute if he solicits another to commit a crime cognizable as a felony in the state in which the solicited offense was committed, or was intended to be committed. |
