Medieval law - Chuseiho

Japanese: 中世法 - ちゅうせいほう
Medieval law - Chuseiho
In Japan, it refers to the collective term of national laws and individual corporate laws that emerged between approximately the 11th and 12th centuries and the 16th century.
[The formation of medieval law]
When ancient states collapsed and dynastic states emerged in their place around the 11th and 12th centuries, a new legal system developed to replace the now hollowed-out Ritsuryo law and support the dynastic state. This was called Kugeho. However, unlike the Ritsuryo law, the framework of the Kugeho was not established all at once by the enactment of a large-scale legal code. It was formed through a long process of hollowing out the Ritsuryo law through partial revisions and abolition, and substantial amendments through new interpretations, and gradually taking root.

Japanese:
日本ではおよそ11~12世紀から16世紀までの間に現れた国家法および個別の団体法の総体をいう。
【中世法の形成】
 11~12世紀ごろ,古代国家が解体し,代わって王朝国家が姿を現すと,形骸化した律令法に代わる新しい法体系が成長して,王朝国家を支えることとなる。公家法とよばれるものがそれである。ただ公家法は,律令法のように大規模な法典の制定によって一気にその骨格ができ上がったのではなく,律令法に対する部分的改廃や新しい解釈による実質的な修正などによって,律令法を空洞化し,漸次新しい根を張っていく長い過程を経て,形成されたのであった。
