    Study Notes

    Secondary Rules

    • There are three types of secondary rules: rules of change, rules of adjudication, and rules of recognition.

    Rules of Change

    • Facilitate legislative or judicial changes to primary rules or secondary rules themselves.
    • Include amendatory provisions of law.
    • Necessary to efficiently allow primary rules to be amended.
    • Specify how primary rules may be changed.
    • Example: Federal Constitution can be amended, and statutes can be repealed or modified by later statutes.

    Rules of Adjudication

    • Give power to courts or decision makers to settle disputes.
    • Include rules that empower courts to punish wrongdoers.
    • Set criteria for determining when a primary rule has been broken.
    • Set procedure to be followed when a primary violation has been established.
    • Give authority to judges, commissions, and regulatory agencies to apply secondary rules of adjudication when appropriate.

    Rules of Recognition

    • Define the practice of courts, officials, and private persons in identifying the law.
    • Refer to certain criteria to determine whether a rule is valid or not.
    • Include references to authoritative texts, legislative enactments, customary practices, general declarations of specified persons, or past judicial decisions in particular cases.
    • Allow for prediction of a rule's validity before it is made, based on conformity to the requirements of the rule of recognition.
