Theories can not become laws, because the purpose of a theory is different from a law.
A theory explains a law. The law of gravity states that there is gravity- this is clearly a fact, and is concrete. Einstein's theory of gravity (or whichever theory is currently supported) explains how gravity works. Theories can be replaced if another, better explanation is formed. New theories do not need to be radically different from their predecessors, and can simply be modifications (although if the modification is very slight, it may still be considered the same theory).
Laws state that something happens, and theories state why.
*note*This is a very quick summary, intended only to answer your question. There are plenty of other details to scientific theory and law, and some pretty interesting court cases that defined them, so consider looking them up.
an observation becomes an thesis through experimentation, proven info and support. a thesis becomes a theory through support and a theory becomes a law through even more support
A theory of criminality based on the principle that an individual becomes delinquent because of an excess of definitions learned that are favorable to violation of law over definitions learned that are unfavorable to violation of law.
A scientific theory and a scientific law are similar in that they both propose to describe and predict the behavior of some aspect of nature in terms of a few basic princples. The main difference is that a scientific theory does not yet have enough evidence to verify its validity. A scientific theory becomes a scientific law after enough evidence has been collected, through experimentation, to be reasonably sure that its description of how nature behaves will always be correct. It often takes as long as a hundred years of experiments before a theory is accepted as a law.
A theory, when proven over time, can become a law. Example: Law of Gravity and Theory of Evolution

It never does - except in people's minds.

Not at all. That it hasn't been proven is what makes it a theory. Once proven, it becomes a law.

A Theory is unproven, but Laws are proven. Theory becomes law after that theory is proven correct.

A scientific theory
When a chemical theory is repeatedly tested and proven to be true under a variety of conditions over a significant period of time, it may be elevated to the status of a law. This indicates that the relationship described by the theory is a fundamental and universally accepted principle in chemistry.
The hypothesis that stands the test of time forms a theory.This theory keeps on suggesting new hypotheses and many scientists exert greater efforts to disprove it but if it survives this doubtful approach,it becomes a law.A law is a uniform or constant fact of nature.It is an irrifutable theory.
