Royal orderly
A royal ordinance ( French ordonnance royale or du roi ) was a legislative act of the kings of France from Philip IV (whose first was created in 1287) to Louis XVI. The affected period comprised the late Middle Ages and the beginning of the modern era . Earlier decrees proclaimed more public law , while later ones had more provisions of private law as their content. The designation of individual sections in the orderly was articles.

Ordonnance de Tour
The article 125 contained in the ordonnance de Tour (issued in 1452 by the Capetian Charles VII ) ordered that official collections of customary law be created for the entire empire . This measure made it possible to record what had been collected according to various legal areas and regions in coutumes and, with the involvement of representatives of the nobility , put it into effect by the king as valid law with lettres patentes .
This was significant for the history of law insofar as customary law - which as unwritten law differed from other law, was now recorded in writing. So it was z. B.
to disposal. The amount of data to be dealt with was very extensive, so that this project from the collection to the writing of the coutumes was not carried out until the reign of Charles IX. ended. (↑ see also Das Ancien Droit )
