Civil code

A civil code is a codification of private law relating to property, family, and obligations.

Not to be confused with Civil procedure.

A jurisdiction that has a civil code generally also has a code of civil procedure. In some jurisdictions with a civil code, a number of the core areas of private law that would otherwise typically be codified in a civil code may instead be codified in a commercial code.
