B.

The Constitution is a written document which is considered fundamental for the establishment of a nation-state based in the rule of law. As such, it is the highest form of law which is obeyed by all members of a state and is responsible for establishing the framework for all legislative, judicial, and executive processes. The Constitution, as a legal document, supercedes state law.
