Preferred term

burial laws  

Definition(s)

  • Unlike laws regulating the insurance industry, the legal profession, or matters of inheritance, burial laws found in the United States do not possess a common theme or thread of statutory logic. Each is different, and many are silent where others are detailed. [Source: Encyclopedia of Death and the Human Experience; Burial Laws]
