This paper provides a structural validation of the Paton System within a normative domain by analysing legal systems and institutional collapse. It demonstrates that stable legal systems operate under admissibility constraints defined by internal consistency, enforceability, and legitimacy. Breakdown occurs when constraint drift leads to loss of admissibility, resulting in systemic instability and collapse. The results confirm that governance systems follow the same lifecycle structure as computational and physical systems.
