A quick definition of S.L.:

Term: S.L.

Definition: S.L. stands for Session Law or Statute Law. Session Law refers to the laws passed by a legislative body during a particular session, while Statute Law refers to the laws that are written and passed by the government.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: S.L. is an abbreviation that can stand for two different things:

Session law: This refers to the laws that are passed during a particular session of a legislative body, such as a state or federal legislature. Session laws are usually published in a series of books called SESSION LAWS.
Statute law: This refers to the laws that are passed by a legislative body and are part of the official legal code of a jurisdiction.

For example, if the state of California passes a law during its 2021 legislative session, that law would be considered a session law and would be published in the California SESSION LAWS. On the other hand, if the U.S. Congress passes a law that becomes part of the federal legal code, that law would be considered a statute law.
