Common Law

The conscience of man derived from usages and customs of immemorial antiquity. It comprises the body of principles and rules of action, relating to the government and security of persons and property. It is in essence the golden rule. Its science is the science of living honestly with one’s self and with other individuals. It is the coalescing of the two great powers bestowed upon man by his creator — the power to reason and the power of the spirit, working together in harmony with the laws of God and nature. It is loyalty-to-self, loyalty-to-truth, as revealed to each individual through his conscience. Being the Law of Conscience, common law cannot be written, it can only be written about. All that can be written about the Common Law is how it manifests itself through the individual who is loyal to self — loyal to his conscience. It is frequently said that in Common Law are the judgments and decrees of courts recognizing these usages and customs, that Common Law is the statutory? and case law? background of England and the American Colonies.

Generally, when the term "law" is used such as "court of law" or "suits at law" the term always means Common Law.
