The term you are looking for is "Statutory law." Statutory law is the body of law created by legislative statutes or written laws passed by a legislative body. It is often in the form of formal written codes, and it contrasts with common law, which is developed by judges through decisions in individual court cases. Statutory law is a crucial component of legal systems in many countries and jurisdictions.
