Answer to Question 1

The Code of Hammurabi and the Twelve Tables were some of the earliest known written legal codes. As societies began to grow, judges issued decisions and began to write them down so that other judges could use the decisions. This aided in uniformity. These decisions became known as common law. English common laws were brought over with the early colonists.

These common laws were eventually written into our modern legal code through our legislative branch of government and regulated by the limits placed on the government through constitutions.

Answer to Question 2

True
