Statute


Explanation:
There you are:

From Michaelis:
stat.ute
[st'ætu:t] n 1 estatuto. 2 lei. statute of frauds lei contra a fraude (de 1677). statute of labourers lei do trabalho (1350). statute of limitations lei da caducidade.

And Wikipedia:
Statute
A statute is a formal, written law of a country or state, written and enacted by its legislative authority, perhaps to then be ratified by the highest executive in the government, and finally published. Typically, statutes command, prohibit, or declare something. Statutes are sometimes referred to as legislation or "black letter law."
