Hungarian Nobility
The Hungarian nobility consisted of a privileged group of individuals, most of whom owned landed property, in the Kingdom of Hungary. Initially, a diverse body of people were described as noblemen, but from the late 12th century only high-ranking royal officials were regarded as noble. Most aristocrats claimed ancestry from a late 9th century Magyar leader. Others were descended from foreign knights, and local Slavic chiefs were also integrated in the nobility. Less illustrious individuals, known as castle warriors, also held landed property and served in the royal army. From the 1170s, most privileged laymen called themselves royal servants to emphasize their direct connection to the monarchs. The Golden Bull of 1222 enacted their liberties, especially their tax-exemption and the limitation of their military obligations. From the 1220s, royal servants were associated with the nobility and the highest-ranking officials were known as barons of the realm. Only those who ...

Corpus Juris
The legal term ''Corpus Juris'' means "body of law". It was originally used by the Romans for several of their collections of all the laws in a certain field—see ''Corpus Juris Civilis''—and was later adopted by medieval jurists in assembling the ''Corpus Juris Canonici''. Later the term was used for comprehensive collections of laws in the US, as in ''Corpus Juris Secundum''. The term is commonly used to refer to the entire body of law of a country, jurisdiction, or court, such as "the ''corpus juris'' of the Supreme Court of the United States." The phrase has been used in the European Union to describe the possibility of a ''European Legal Area'', a ''European Public Prosecutor'' and a ''European Criminal Code''. Eurosceptics in the United Kingdom attacked the plans, which they saw as a threat to the criminal law traditions of some member states, such as jury trials by independent juries, habeas corpus, and prohibitions against double jeopardy.
