What is a civil law code?

A set of laws created by a court as a result of a lawsuit
A set of laws enacted by a ruling body
A set of laws that are based on tradition
A set of laws that are enforced by a criminal court

The correct answer is: A set of laws enacted by a ruling body

A civil law code is a set of laws that are created to regulate the private relationships and disputes between individuals, organizations, and businesses. This includes areas such as contracts, property, family law, and torts. The other options are incorrect because - Option A is referring to common law, which is based on court decisions rather than written laws. - Option C is referring to customary or traditional law, which is not necessarily written or codified. - Option D is referring to criminal law, which deals with offenses against the state rather than private disputes.
