Regulæ Juris,[1] also spelled Regulae iuris (Latin for 'Rules of Law'), were legal maxims which served as jurisprudence in Roman law.[2]
Not to be confused with Rule of law.
The term is also a generic term for general rules or principles of the interpretation of canon laws of the Catholic Church; in this context, they remain principles of law used in interpreting Catholic canon law, despite no longer having any binding forces of law since the 1917 Code of Canon Law abrogated them[citation needed].
