Theories are a a broad range of hypothesis (educated guesses) that were pieced together. Laws are theories that have been proven; a unifying explanation that has been supported by testing. Basically, a theory is like a first draft, and a law is the final result.
A theory, when proven over time, can become a law. Example: Law of Gravity and Theory of Evolution
A law cannot become a theory, as laws are higher in scientific hierarchy than theories. Theories may become laws when the evidence for their factuality proves that the theory meets all established requirements set forth by the theory. If at any point in the scientific method a theory is disproven for the criteria that it sets forth, it can never be considered a Law. The hierarchy is thusly: Hypothesis < Theory < Law.
The difference between theory and natural law is that a theory is a framework, while a natural law is a single rule, usually expressed in mathematics. They are not two different stages of acceptance among scientists (as it is sometimes claimed in error); they are two completely different things; a theory does not evolve into a law with when sufficient evidence for a theory has been gathered for example. For example consider: The Theory of Special Relativity <-- Theory Speed of light is constant <-- Law Theory of Electromagnetism <-- Theory Divergence of the Magnetic field is zero <-- Law Quantum Field Theory <-- Theory Conservation of Energy <-- Law
A theory is just an idea of how things work a law is a theory already proven that applies anywhere just depending of the variables used in the law
A natural law is an empirical observation held to be true. A theory explains why the law holds true.
command of sovereign sanctioned by punishments is law by imperative theory and law as legal science of norms is by pure theory of law.
A theory, when proven over time, can become a law. Example: Law of Gravity and Theory of Evolution
Pure Theory of Law was created in 1934.
A law is a description of a naturally occurring phenomenon, whereas a theory attempts to explain a law.
It was a law not the theory because this principle has also proved by him.

A theory explains how something works - a "law" is just a thumb nail description of a theory.
Ozone depletion is a theory. It is not a law because it is not passed to government.

a law is something that is true and a theory is an opinion or thought that can be proven wrong.
law is based on fact theory is a concept/idea
