What are the objectives of the law?

The purpose of Law is to limit and contain harm-to-others.

This is done by:

1. Providing specified formats for contracts, treaties, deals and agreements, then providing registries of these to resolve arguments about opposed memories or interpretations of them later on with these recorded facts from which unbiased third-party arbitration can pronounce final sentence on disputes before they degenerate into violent conflicts.

2. Establishing what constitutes 'harm-to-others' and whether it has occurred; logically and implicitly from the fact that that all conflict starts with, at least, a perception that another or others are violating a plaintiff's life, liberty or property or, at most, clearly doing or having done so.

(Unfortunately Law is exploited by legislators to advance their own interests and agendas. This too frequently violates the life, liberty or property of others and, in effect, generates new grounds for conflicts where none previously existed in diametric contradiction of the purpose of Law.)
