the rules would be considered the statutes with the elements needed to satisfy the statute?

[@lawschoolplaybook]

Generally, rules can come from written laws (statutes, regulations, etc.) or from case synthesis (common law). In either scenario, you can break rules into sub-rules or elements. Does that help?

[@niikas22]

@@lawschoolplaybook yes that helps!! I am just confused a little on the sub rules. For example, an element of crim liability is a guilty mind. That would be the rule but then sub rule would be Penal Code 2.01 that says "no person shall purposely, knowingly, recklessly, negligently, xyz." Right?

[@lawschoolplaybook]

@niikas22 It sounds like you might be reversing the rule and subrule. For example, the BIG rule for something like burglary might be "breaking and entering the dwelling of another at night with the intent to commit a felony therein." The elements, each of which would have its own subrule (or definition), might then be breaking | entering | dwelling of another | night | intent. Does that help? You are breaking down a big rule into smaller component parts to see if each is met, so intent is typically a smaller element (or one piece) of a bigger rule....
