(1 point)

O They wanted to become a republic and needed new laws in place to do so.
O They were worried that older Roman Law hadn't yet been translated into Latin.
O They felt that their interests were secondary to those of priests and patricians.

Answer 1

Answer is They felt that their interests were secondary to those of priests and patricians

Reason

Romans felt that legal decisions were being arbitrarily decided and a push was made to write down the law in order to better anticipate how decisions would be made.
The written recording of the law in the Twelve Tables enabled the plebeians both to become acquainted with the law and to protect themselves against patricians' abuses of power.
