9. Canon law is defined as the legal institutions established by the Church in the twelfth to the sixteenth century. Canon law includes the law of elections, complex rules of clerical ordination, the remedy of restitution, the protection of the poor, the use of oaths and vows, the law of property and economy, the law of baptism, the crime of blasphemy (or heresy), the protection against double jeopardy, laws of papal privileges, the law of excommunication and religious discipline. Canon law was considered to be the law of love and was instituted in contrast to Roman civil law that was notorious in its brutality.
