Answer:

Private and Public Laws

Step-by-step explanation:

The Justinian Code is a collection of laws developed under the Byzantine emperor Justinian I. His law came to be known as the Corpus Juris Civilis which tried to bring law and order back to the Byzantine.

Private laws deal with individuals where it settles disputes among groups of people and compensates victims.

Public Laws regulate the conduct of the government in its relations with its citizens. Some of its laws include tax law and criminal law.
