Yes. Justinian I was emperors of the Byzantine Empire. Historians have coined this term to indicate the eastern part of the Roman Empire after the fall of the Roman Empire. The Romans did not use this term. They called Roman Empire.
The Corpus Juris Civilis (Body of Civil Law), which was later also called the Justinian Code was commissioned by Justinian I and was published in a second edition in 534. It came in four parts. 1) A Codex (book) which was a review which collected imperial laws going back 400 years (to the time of Hadrian, reigned 117-138 AD) into a single book. It scrapped obsolete or unnecessary laws, made changes when necessary,clarified obscure passages, and harmonised conflicting view among jurists which arose from centuries of poorly organised development of Roman law so as to have a coherent body of law. 2) The Digesta which was a collection of fragments taken from essays on laws written by jurists (mostly from the 2nd and 3rd centuries AD) and which expressed the private opinions of legal experts. It was an advanced student textbook. 3) The Institutiones was a textbook for first year a law student which was a series of extracts from statements on the basic institutions of Roman law from the teaching books by 'writers of authority.' In was largely based on the texts of Gaius, a jurist of the 2nd century AD. 4) The Novellae Constitutiones, which contained laws recently issued by Justinian.

Justinian I was the emperor who formulated the code. He did not actually write the laws, but he revised them and clarified them. Justinian did not revise the laws either. He commissioned legal exerts to collect centuries of Roman civil law and edit a compendium with a selections of these laws. This was called the Corpus Juris Civilis (Body of Civil Laws) and the name Justinian Code was given to it in the Renaissance. The codification of centuries of Roman laws means that the laws were brought together in a single book. In Latin codex meant book. Contadictory or redundant laws were scrapped and relevent ones were revisded when necessary.

code of hammurabi. (i think) it was a question in my civics exam, and this is what i out. Code of Hammurabi is not correct. The code of Hammurabi was the first written set of laws ever, not the laws that simplified roman law. That would be Justinian Law.
