Catholic Canon Law
The canon law of the Catholic Church () is "how the Church organizes and governs herself". It is the system of religious laws and ecclesiastical legal principles made and enforced by the hierarchical authorities of the Catholic Church to regulate its external organization and government and to order and direct the activities of Catholics toward the mission of the Church. It was the first modern Western legal system and is the oldest continuously functioning legal system in the West, while the unique traditions of Eastern Catholic canon law govern the 23 Eastern Catholic particular churches '.

The jurisprudence of Catholic canon law is the complex of legal theory, traditions, and interpretative principles of Catholic canon law. In the Latin Church, the jurisprudence of canon law was founded by Gratian (jurist), Gratian in the 1140s with his ''Decretum Gratiani, Decretum''. In the Eastern Catholic canon law of the Eastern Catholic Churches, Photios I of Constantinople, Photios holds a place similar to that of Gratian for the West. Much of the legislative style was adapted from that of Roman law, especially the Justinian I, Justinianic ''Corpus Juris Civilis''. As a result, Roman ecclesiastical courts tend to follow the Roman law style of continental Europe with some variation. After the fall of the Roman Empire and up until the revival of Roman law in the 11th century, canon law served as the most important unifying force among the local systems in the civil law tradition. The canonists introduced into post-Roman Europe the concept of a Rule according to higher law, high ...
