The Gallic Wars-Caesar-Paragraph 1
Wednesday, May 27, 2009
United States Supreme Court vs. Roman Court
Roman law is one of the most significant influences on American law. Even some individual justices were interested heavily in Roman law, often citing it. In states such as Florida and Texas, this influence was extremely dominant, as they once under civil law systems. Roman law has been a peripheral, or backdrop, of American common law. One specific influence is that Roman and civil law provided a model of systematic legal structure, especially in organizational and conceptual framework. Second, Roman law provided precise vocabulary for complex legal concepts. Third, and most importantly, Roman law provided comparative materials for judging American rules, as well as historical substrata, upon which many English and American rules rest.
