  ACT, civil law, contracts. A writing which states in a legal form that a
  thing has been said, done, or agreed. In Latin, Instrumentum. Merl. Rep.
  
  

  ACT. In the legal sense, this word may be used to signify the result of a
  public deliberation, the decision of a prince, of a legislative body, of a
  council, court of justice, or a magistrate. Also, a decree, edict, law,
  judgment, resolve, award, determination. Also, an instrument in writing to
  verify facts, as act of assembly, act of congress, act of parliament, act
  and deed. See Webster's Dict. Acts are civil or criminal, lawful or
  unlawful, public or private.
      2. Public acts, usually denominated authentic, are those which have a
  public authority, and which have been made before public officers, are
  authorized by a public seal, have been made public by the authority of a
  magistrate, or which have been extracted and been properly authenticated
  from public records.
      3. Acts under private signature are those which have been made by
  private individuals, under their hands. An act of this kind does not acquire
  the force of an authentic act, by being registered in the office of a
  notary. 5 N. S. 693; 8 N. S. 568 ; 3 L. R. 419 ; 8 N. S. 396 ; 11 M. R. 243;
  unless it has been properly acknowledged before the officer, by the parties
  to it. 5 N. S. 196.
       4. Private acts are those made by private persons, as registers in
  relation to their receipts and expenditures, schedules, acquittances, and
  the like.  Nov. 73, c. 2 ; Code, lib. 7, tit. 32, 1. 6; lib. 4, t. 21; Dig.
  lib. 22, tit.. 4; Civ. Code of Louis. art. 2231 to 2254; Toull. Dr. Civ.
  Francais, tom. 8, p. 94.
  
  

  ACT, legislation.  A statute or law made by a legislative body; as an act of
  congress is a law by the congress of the United States; an act of assembly
  is a law made by a legislative assembly.  If an act of assembly expire or be
  repealed while a proceeding under it is in fieri or pending, the proceeding
  becomes abortive; as a prosecution for an offence, 7 Wheat. 552; or a
  proceeding under insolvent laws. 1 Bl. R. 451; Burr. 1456 ; 6 Cranch, 208 ;
  9 Serg. & Rawle, 283.
       2. Acts are general or special; public or private. A general or public
  act is a universal rule which binds the whole community; of which the courts
  are bound to take notice ex officio.
       3. Explanatory acts should not be enlarged by equity Blood's case,
  Comb. 410; although such acts may be allowed to have a retrospective
  operation. Dupin, Notions de Droit, 145. 9.
       4. Private or special acts are rather exceptions, than rules; being
  those which operate only upon particular persons and private concerns; of
  these the courts are not bound to take notice, unless they are pleaded. Com.
  85, 6; 1 Bouv. Inst. n. 105.
  
  

  ACT, evidence. The act of one of several conspirators, performed in
  pursuance of the common design, is evidence against all of them. An overt
  act of treason must be proved by two witnesses. See Overt.
       2. The terra. acts, includes written correspondence, and other papers
  relative to the design of the parties, but whether it includes unpublished
  writings upon abstract questions, though of a kindred nature, has been
  doubted, Foster's Rep. 198 ; 2 Stark. R. 116, 141.
       3. In cases of partnership it is a rule that the act or declaration of
  either partner, in furtherance of the common object of the association, is
  the act of all. 1 Pet. R. 371 5 B. & Ald. 267.
       4. And the acts. of an agent, in pursuance of his authority, will be
  binding on his principal. Greenl. Ev. Sec. 113.
