In accordance with Imperial Decree 00014 - On Establishment of Legal Codes, the Empire of Lehmark has formally adopted a comprehensive Civil Law Code and a Criminal Law Code. These Codes are to be applied uniformly in all courts and utilized by all legal practitioners within the Empire. They serve as the cornerstone of Imperial Law, providing a structured and coherent legal framework that underpins the system of governance in Lehmark.
The Civil Law Code encompasses a wide array of regulations governing personal, property, and contractual matters, ensuring clarity and fairness in civil proceedings. On the other hand, the Criminal Law Code delineates offenses and their corresponding penalties, fostering justice and order by clearly defining unacceptable behaviours and the repercussions thereof.
Together, these Codes establish a robust legal foundation, fostering a consistent and transparent approach to legal governance. They play a crucial role in maintaining social order and upholding the rights and responsibilities of citizens, thereby contributing to the stability and prosperity of the Empire of Lehmark.
