A quick definition of law in action:

Law in action refers to how the law is actually used and applied in real-life situations, rather than just what is written in books. It is the practical application of the law in the legal system. This is different from the theoretical or abstract concepts of the law that are found in books. Legal realism is a related concept that emphasizes the importance of understanding how the law works in practice.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Law in action refers to the application of the law in real-life situations, as opposed to the law that is written in books. It is the way that the legal system works on a day-to-day basis.

For example, if someone is accused of a crime, the law in action would be the process of investigating the crime, gathering evidence, and presenting the case in court. This is different from the law in books, which would be the specific laws and statutes that apply to that particular crime.

Another example of law in action would be a contract dispute between two parties. The law in action would be the process of negotiating a settlement or going to court to resolve the dispute. This is different from the law in books, which would be the specific laws and regulations that govern contracts.

Overall, law in action is the practical application of the law in real-life situations, and it is an important part of the legal system.
