DE FINIBUS LEVATIS

De finibus levatis is a Latin term used in law that means "concerning fines levied." It refers to a statute that requires any fines that have been levied to be read aloud in open court in a solemn manner. This was a common practice in medieval times.

For example, if someone was fined for breaking a law, the fine would be read aloud in court so that everyone present could hear it. This was done to ensure that the fine was fair and that everyone understood the consequences of breaking the law.

Another example would be if a landlord was fined for not maintaining their property. The fine would be read aloud in court so that the tenants and other interested parties could hear it and know that the landlord had been held accountable for their actions.

The examples illustrate how de finibus levatis was used in medieval times to ensure that fines were fair and that everyone understood the consequences of breaking the law. By reading the fines aloud in court, it was believed that justice was being served and that people would be less likely to break the law in the future.
