The Group Form of Law: The Boundary Form of Law

If an internal organization bearing a law loses its qualification, has the law itself disappeared? This paper shows that the two events cannot simply be identified. The loss of one bearing organization establishes only the withdrawal of that witness; the same Law may continue to stand if another qualified witness remains. The boundary of law is therefore defined as an actual truth-value crossing of the same candidate law under a predeclared comparison protocol, rather than as a change in a particular local structure, formal quantity, or critical parameter. The paper develops boundary criteria at the structural-witness, formal-solution, and applicability-domain levels and distinguishes the loss of one witness from extinction of the last witness. The framework addresses when structural change really constitutes a system-level qualification change without presupposing an already completed mapping to a particular neural or machine-learning system.
