Legal effect is legally binding, which means that people should act in accordance with the law and must abide by it. The legal effect of a contract means that it conforms to the conditions and procedures prescribed by law, so it is protected by law.

Basic overview

2, the scope of the law. Including:

(1) Prescription refers to the time when the law takes effect and the time when it ends;

(2) Space effectiveness refers to the area where the law takes effect (including territorial sea and airspace). General national laws are applicable to the whole country, and local regulations are only effective in this region;

Generally speaking, legal effect can be divided into normative legal documents and non-normative legal documents. The validity of normative legal documents, also known as legal validity in a narrow sense, refers to the validity or scope of application of the law, that is, who, what, where and when the law is binding. The legal effect mentioned in this chapter is a narrow legal effect. The validity of non-normative legal documents refers to the legal validity of judgments, rulings, arrest warrants and licenses.
