A '''principle of law''' is a codified philosophical statement ("[[principle]]"), which represents the core of a [[law]] as found in a [[constitution]], in [[precedent]], or else is interpreted to arise from either or both.

As most legal systems are [[nation]]alistic frameworks built upon a small core of legal concepts, [[jurisdiction]] and [[sovereignty]] often have bearing in making statements of principle.
Legal conservatives may tend to be accordingly restricted or "[[practicality|practical]]" in their concept of a legal principle, while liberals tend to be more inclusive and [[universalist]].
Three principles of law are A)that the state is responsible for criminal law
B)Equility before the law and
C)The presumtion of innocence
