Best Answer

Yes. Federal law, state law and even municipal law prevail over negotiated contracts.

A contract that requires one party to violate the law (e.g. a contract for an assassination), or relies on a concept invalidated by law (e.g. a contract for the sale of a slave) is unenforceable. Any law suit for breach of such a contract would be dismissed as soon as the violation of the applicable law was demonstrated. This is common to all jurisdictions based on British common law.
