There are three sources of law:

1. Constitution: The Constitution is the foundation law from which all other laws draw their power.

2. Legislation: The Legislation is passed by Parliament and by provincial legislatures in compliance with the Constitution. These types of statutes may well codify case law that developed in the courts or it may change case law.

3. Courts: The courts hand down judgments that also develop and shape legal principles.
