Why does Louisiana use a civil law system?

History
2 answers:
Novosadov [1.4K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Napoleon. The legal system in Louisiana—unlike that of any other state—derives from the Civil Code established by the French emperor in 1804. ... In theory, a judge in Louisiana decides a case based on her own interpretation of the code, not those of prior courts

Explanation:

Louisiana is the only Civil law jurisdiction in the United States. Louisiana gets its Civil law legal system from its colonial past as a possession of two Civil law countries, Spain and France. It may be better to think of Louisiana's legal system as a hybrid consisting of both Civil and Common law influences

Which two phrases best explain major direct results of the fall of the roman empire?
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Invasions by Barbarian tribes. The most straightforward theory for Western Rome's collapse pins the fall on a string of military losses sustained against outside forces. Rome had tangled with Germanic tribes for centuries, but by the 300s “barbarian” groups like the Goths had encroached beyond the Empire's borders.

How are social systems from the american revolution impacting american at this time
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The American Revolution produced a new outlook among its people that would have ramifications long into the future. Groups excluded from immediate equality such as slaves and women would draw their later inspirations from revolutionary sentiments. Americans began to feel that their fight for liberty was a global fight.
