Answer:

Primary Authorities :

Statues, regulations, jurisdiction, trial court, cases.

Primary Persuasive Authority :

Constitution, legislation.

Law review articles, trial courts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Primary persuasive authority means law. Following a law is mandatory and statute provides the regulation which are required to be followed or else it will be regarded as crime. Secondary persuasive authority is not law but it leads to the law and helps explain the terms and standards of the law.
