Answer:

The code has the same laws for all people

Step-by-step explanation:

The Justinian Code was a collection of laws and legal interpretations developed under the sponsorship of Byzantine emperor Justinian I. It did not constitute a new legal code. It collected past laws and opinions of the greats Roman jurists together with Justinian´s own new laws. By doing this the Justinian Code made laws less complicated because it contains every law considered valuable rephrased for clarity and conciseness.

The Justinian Code was the foundation of civil law it served as a model for modern nations throughout continental Europe and Latin America.

Although the Code gave the slaves the category of person and imposed punishment on those who torture them it still made the difference between free men and slaves.

I hope this answer helps you.
