What body of laws covers the rights of parties in contracts?

  1. Civil Law

  2. Criminal Law

  3. Common Law

  4. Corporate Law

The correct answer is: Common Law

The correct answer is C Common Law. Civil Law typically deals with disputes between private parties, and while contracts may be involved, it is not specifically focused on the rights in contracts. Criminal Law applies to crimes, not contracts. Corporate Law focuses on the legal structure and obligations of corporations, not contracting parties. Common Law is a body of laws based on court decisions and precedents, and contract law falls under this category because it is primarily created and enforced by the courts.
