Answer:
More harsh.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ideas of justice in the medieval society were more harsh and rigid as compared to the contemporary law and judicial system that protects the rights, security, and liberty of an individual. The medieval justice system was based entirely on biblical ideas of morality and spirituality which considered "man as a sinner by birth". The society was divided into three sections comprises of the priests, the nobility and the serfs and the judicial system consists of three types of courts(manor, royal and church courts) with bishops, deacons, clerks, priests, monks, nuns and clergymen to solve the cases. The entire medieval judiciary was built around the superstitious ordeals(where it was the duty of the accused to prove his innocence) like, the ordeal of fire, cold water, etc. that are representative of the brutality of the law and order system.
