Public law involves the regulation of the legal system itself, including constitutional interpretation, criminal law, and administrative procedures. It focuses on how the government operates and enforces laws. Private law, on the other hand, deals with laws applied to individuals, affecting relationships between them. Examples include property law, tort law, and contract law. The tutorial emphasizes understanding these categorizations to better grasp the legal system.
