A quick definition of jus canonicum:

Term: Jus Canonicum

Definition: Jus Canonicum is a type of law that was created by the Western Church between the 12th and 14th centuries. It is a set of rules that govern the practices and beliefs of the Church. The law has grown over time and is now codified in the Codex Juris Canonici of 1983. Jus Canonicum is also known as Canon Law or Church Law. It has had a significant impact on the development of English law, as many judges in the early Middle Ages were ecclesiastics who were familiar with its doctrines. In England, Canon Law is concerned with regulating the affairs of the Church of England.

A more thorough explanation:

Jus canonicum is a Latin term that refers to the body of western ecclesiastical law known as canon law. This law was compiled from the 12th to 14th centuries and has grown steadily since then. It is now codified in the Codex Juris Canonici of 1983, which replaced the previous version from 1918.

Canon law is a body of law developed within a particular religious tradition, and it regulates the affairs of the Church. It has had a significant influence on the development of English law, as many judges in the royal courts during the early Middle Ages were ecclesiastics familiar with the chief doctrines of canon law.

For example, canon law has influenced the law of marriage and divorce in many countries. In the United States, for instance, canon law has been used to determine the validity of marriages in cases where one or both parties are Catholic.

Another example of the influence of canon law is in the regulation of religious societies. Canon law provides guidelines for the establishment and governance of religious orders, such as monasteries and convents.

In summary, jus canonicum refers to the body of western ecclesiastical law known as canon law, which regulates the affairs of the Church and has had a significant influence on the development of English law and the regulation of religious societies.

Hi everyone! Decided a bit too late that I wanted to go into law. GPA currently stands at 3.76 (one more semester to go) and I'm interested in going into immigration law. Anybody got any advice for LSAT studying and applications? I plan on taking a gap year to have some time for internships and such :)

Apply for the LSAT fee waiver to try to mitigate the cost of materials! 7Sage is $1 for a year if you have the fee waiver. I also think you should try to work in an immigration firm in some way to see if it’s something you really want to pursue and to add to your resume. Good luck!!! One tip I would also give is to not sign up for the LSAT until you’re practice tests average are around the score you’re aiming for
