Statutory vs Common Law

The video tutorial explains the differences between statutory and common law, focusing on their roles in contract law. Statutory law is created by legislators and implemented through regulations by administrative bodies. Common law, on the other hand, is developed through judicial interpretations and appellate court decisions, which clarify and sometimes invalidate statutory laws. The tutorial highlights how these two types of law interact, particularly in contract law, where common law plays a significant role in non-goods contracts, while statutory provisions are more prevalent in goods sales.
