How do federal public laws, session laws, and codified statutes differ?
Federal law is the body of law created by the federal government of a nation. A federal government is formed when a group of political units, such as states or provinces join together in a federation, surrendering their individual sovereignty and many powers to the central government while retaining or reserving other limited powers as. As a result, two or more levels of government exist within an established geographic territory. The body of law of the common central government is the federal law. Session laws govern the proceedings of the legislature. Codified statutes are the enacted laws published in formal written documents.
