Is a law of nature about everything in the universe or just about a restricted group of things?

A Reaction
I presume the answer is that while a law may only refer to a small group of things, the law would still have to apply if that group moved or spread or enlarged, so it would have to be universals. A laws confined to one time or place? Maybe.
