A REV. STAT. is a type of law that is passed by a government body, like a legislature or court. It can be called an "act" too. There are many different types of statutes, like criminal statutes that define crimes and their punishments, or directory statutes that suggest what should be done but don't require it. Some statutes clarify or explain previous laws, while others create new powers or allow things that were previously prohibited. REV.
