Law is never law unless:

Law is never law unless:

  • (A) It is violated
  • (B) It is enforced by a Sovereign authority
  • (C) It is enforced by moral sanctions
  • (D) It is supported by the religion
The correct answer is (B) It is enforced by a Sovereign authority. This idea stems from the legal theory of John Austin, who argued that for a law to be a true law, it must be issued by a sovereign authority (such as the government or state) and backed by the power to enforce it. According to Austin's Command Theory of law, law becomes valid only when it is enforced by a sovereign body, making enforcement a critical aspect of its existence.
