Legal System of the United Kingdom of Russia, Athens, Puerto Rico, and Snelly

The Legal System of the United Kingdom of Russia, Athens, Puerto Rico, and Snelly is one of the most complicated sets of laws that govern day to day life in the United Kingdom. The two most important systems of Laws are Imperial Law's, those whence are set forth by the Monarch of the United Kingdom, and Religious Law, those Laws which are divine and can never be changed because they where made by the God's and interpreted by the Priest. Royal or Republican Laws, which are local laws created for each Republic or Kingdom of the UK, no two republics or kingdoms have the same set of laws. Then there comes Senatorial Laws, those passed by the Imperial Senate. Parliamental laws, those passed by the Parliament. Common Law, those that are passed by the government as a whole. Local Law which are passed by munipalities, villages, and small republics and kingdoms. Statuary Law or statute law is written law set down by a body of legislature or by a singular legislator.

History
The first laws created where the Laws of Koshem, the dietary religious laws written by St. Bishop the First. From that point on Laws have interlapped, overlapped and created complicated systems. No one court is above all others, the Constitution of the United Kingdom stipulates that a central court is unnecessary, but each city is given it's right to write laws.

Death Penalty
The Death Penalty as controversial as it may seem in most Galactic Federation states is entirely legal in all of the United Kingdom, except for the Holiest Sites in Athenaism, where it is forbidden that anyone be killed in front of the Gods. The Death Penatly is created in two ways, by either local or Imperial Decree. Religious Law has not been used or seen as a form of the Death Penalty as often as it once was as most people fear disavowing the God's, how ever Death Sentences have been carried out on religious moral in the past. The Majority of Sentences are carried out either for Murder or Crimes Against the Government, crimes against other people that are deemed as heinous have also been sources for capital punishment.
