So, let's start the round-up! Illegal, or unlawful, describes that which is either prohibited or not authorized by law. In general, conduct is made illegal by statute, rule, or regulation. Rules make conduct illegal in a non-legal setting. For example, rules often dictate how a game is played. Statutes make conduct illegal and are punishable by law. Violation of a statute can result in civil forfeiture or criminal prosecution. Regulations are created by administrative agencies. Violation of a regulation often results in administrative law proceedings or legal action.
