VII.   Law

A Precept is a valid law created in accord with a rule, teaching or principle and issued as a written command by a Juridic Person, subject to the limits of their authority, in accordance with these canons and the procedures of their body.

A Precept is not valid, but an inferior and false document if it does not conform to these canons.

A Precept is the second highest form of law that may be promulgated within the limits of law of a Juridic Person. A Prescript may not be issued unless permitted for a specific purpose under the laws of the Juridic Person by a college of legislators of a Juridic Person holding such authority.

Only three (3) types of Juridic Person may issue a valid Precept, Supreme, Global and Civil:

(i) A Precept Issued by a Supreme Juridic Person is called an Edictum; and

(ii) A Precept Issued by a Global Juridic Person is called an Consultum; and

(iii) A Precept Issued by a Civil Juridic Person is called an Prescriptum.

A Precept may not be abrogated, nor overturned by a lesser Juridic Person, only by a higher Juridic Person by Precept, or higher Official Person by Decree.

By definition, no inferior juridic person of Inferior Roman Law, Sharia Law or Talmudic Law has any valid authority to issue a valid Precept. Any by-law of an inferior Juridic person claiming to be a prescript automatically causes such a by-law to be null and void from the beginning.
