Statutes are laws written or codified by legislature. They are organized and numbered for reference. Statutes can be either criminal or civil. Typically, there are broad titles, for different broad areas of law (e.g. criminal or family). Each title would be divided into chapters, sections, or some other numbering system by topic. Each jurisdiction has it's own numbering system. For example, 19-6-11 may refer to title 19, chapter 6, section 11.

Examples of statutes?
Statutes are official laws enacted by a legislative body. Examples include the Clean Air Act, the Civil Rights Act, and the Affordable Care Act. These statutes establish legal guidelines and regulations for specific issues within a society.
Can common law override statute law?
Yes and no. In general, in the U.S., a statute overrides pre-existing common law, to the extent of the statute's language. For example, a common law rule may apply to "all contracts". If the legislature later enacts a statute that is stated to apply to "all contracts for the sale of goods," then the statute overrides common law, but only with respect to contracts for the sale of goods.However, a later court case may arise where there is some question to whether the statute applies as written; there is an issue that is not explicitly covered by the statute (for example, the statute may not have defined "goods"). The court may then interpret the statute's unexpressed terms, and in that sense "override" the statute (at least in part) by its interpretation. And that interpretation will be followed in lower court cases.But the right of courts to throw out, or void, statutes because they are unconstitutional is well enshrined in U.S. common law.
