    Substantive and Procedural Law

    Substantive law is the body of law concerned with people’s rights and responsibilities. Procedural law concerns the process of enforcing and defending these rights and responsibilities. For example, murder is a criminal offence under substantive law. But the rules to be followed when prosecuting an offender of that law are a form of procedural law. Substantive law defines the ends or objectives of the law. Procedural law lays out the means to achieve those ends.
