statute's
The act's own
Statute's is the possessive form of statute, a law enacted by a legislative body.
The form typically appears when discussing what belongs to or characterizes a particular law: the statute's language, the statute's requirements, the statute's scope.
A statute's provisions are its specific rules; a statute's intent is what lawmakers meant it to accomplish.
