I believe it was called "The Code of Hammurabi"...
The central principle within the code of Hammurabi was fair and just for its ancient era of time. Basically the idea was that all laws and punishments for breaking the laws should be placed in writing so that every citizen knew what the laws were. This was an outstanding achievement.
This statement is a part of the Code of Hammurabi, a legal code created by the Babylonian king Hammurabi around 1754 BC. It is one of the earliest known sets of laws in human history and reflects the principle of lex talionis, or "an eye for an eye."
The earliest known code of law was the Hammurabi code. It was the first laws codified together.

Hammurabi code of laws had a big impact then and now. Back in the Babylonian empire, his code of laws helped the people with every part of their daily lives. They knew what was against the law and what the punishments were if they broke the laws. Hammurabi's code of laws also has a big impact now because it influenced the rules and laws we have today. It contained some ideas that are still found in laws today. For example, we use the method of organization that started in Hammurabi's code(specific crimes had specific penalties). This is the importance of the Hammurabi's code of laws.

If you mean: is Hammurabi's Code still in use somewhere as a code of Law, the answer is no. If you mean: could we decide to use all or part of it as part of our present-day legal system, the answer I'm afraid is also no. Hammurabi's Code was - despite its name - not a code of law. It was a collection of verdicts Hammurabi had made in disputes brought before him. In today's legal systems, practically any dispute you could think of is already covered by existing laws or jurisdiction, or both. You cannot have two systems of law or jurisdiction for the same dispute, and today's jurisdiction would always take first place over Hammurabi's old verdicts.
