The definition of Act of Supremacy in the law of the United States, as defined by the lexicographer Arthur Leff in his legal dictionary is: An English statute of 1558 establishing the supremacy of the Crown in ecclesiastical matters.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The first Act of Supremacy was legislation in 1534 that granted King Henry VIII of England Royal Supremacy, which means that he was declared the supreme head of the Church of England. It is still the legal authority of the Sovereign of the United Kingdom.
