Talk:Private law

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

put it in the miscrop word ok

I have made some fairly savage amendments. It reads better, but could be far more comprehensive. I have added some areas of private law, as having just family law seemed a bit piontless. Arthur Markham 15:44, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Is there different meaning?

at the page 135 of "Legal Research Illustrated" (8th edition),Foundation Press 2002, it said:

A public law affects the nation as a whole, or deal with individuals as a class, and relates to public matters. A private law benefits only a specific individual or individuals.Private law deal primarily with matters relating to claims against the governmnet or with matters of immigration and naturalization.

Is that means that some civil law, such as contract law and torts law, are not private law as this definition? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.31.138.157 (talk) 17:17, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
