expository statute

Read a random definition: in facie curiae

A quick definition of expository statute:

An expository statute is a type of law that explains or clarifies a previous law or court decision. It helps people understand what the law means and how it should be applied. Other types of statutes include laws that require certain actions to be taken, laws that forbid certain actions, and laws that allow certain actions. Some statutes apply to everyone, while others only apply to specific individuals or groups. Statutes can be permanent or temporary, and they can be written to apply to future events or to events that have already happened.

A more thorough explanation:

An expository statute is a type of law that clarifies the meaning of a prior statute or reconciles conflicting judicial decisions. It is also known as a declaratory statute.

For example, if there is a law that is unclear or has been interpreted differently by different courts, an expository statute can be passed to provide a clear explanation of what the law means. This can help to avoid confusion and ensure that the law is applied consistently.

Another example of an expository statute is one that explains the intent behind a prior law. This can be helpful in cases where the original law is ambiguous or has been misinterpreted.

Overall, expository statutes are important tools for ensuring that the law is clear and consistent, and that it is applied fairly and accurately.
