Scots law
Scots law is a unique
legal system
with an ancient basis in
Roman law
. Grounded in
uncodified
civil law
dating back to the
Corpus Juris Civilis
, it also features elements of
common law
with
medieval
sources. Thus
Scotland
has a
pluralistic
, or 'mixed', legal system, of which
South Africa
law is comparable, and, to a lesser degree, the partly
codified
pluralistic systems of
Louisiana
and
Quebec
.
