civil law Explanation: Civil Law as opposed to Criminal Law. In Switerland for example we differentiate between the codified civil law or "Code des Obligations" and the codified criminal law or Code Penal(criminal). For the basics on the difference between Codified Law and Common Law please check the link. Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_law_(legal_system) |
