This educational worksheet provides an overview of Justinian's Code, including its historical context and legal principles, with specific scenarios on marriage and assault and battery.

- No, Jim Nastics and Wilma B. McBride could not marry under the Justinian Code of Law because Wilma is still legally married until her divorce is finalized.
- The Code explicitly states that “a woman cannot have two husbands at the same time,” which prohibits bigamy and applies even if a divorce is pending.
- Wilma’s current marital status — described as “in the process of divorcing her first husband” — means she is not yet legally free to remarry, regardless of parental consent or social standing.
