Statute law are set laws. They are put in place by a high
legislature and cannot be argued against nor changed. For
example, no murder is a statute law because it is set in place
and will and cannot ever change.
However, a common law is a law that is formed, throughout a
life time, it is put in place based on a previous case of crime, in
order to prevent further crime. For example, the case of Victoria
Climbe, her case led to parliament making decisions to update
the Childrens act in 2004 and the ‘every child matters’.
