This provision calls for the orderly settlement of debts (i. e. fair treatment for both debtor and lender) and protection of an individual’s property. The king could not seize the land of a debtor if that individual had enough personal property (i. e. property other than land) to cover the debt. In turn, those who had given a loan could claim the land of the debtor as well as the rents from that land until the debt was paid. Which law is it?
• Rule of law
