The goal of the plebeian was to have clear, written, and published laws. Prior to the Law of the Twelve Tablets, Rome did not have a written code of law. Laws had been religious rules which were kept secret by the priests (who were patricians) and the proceedings of the senate were not published.

In particular, the plebeians wanted protections against the abuse of defaulting debtors by creditors (who were patricians) who imprisoned them, tortured them and sometimes sold them as slaves. This was the issue which had led to the first plebeian rebellion 44 years earlier (in 494 BC), the creation of the plebeian movement and the beginning of the Conflict of the Orders (between patricians and plebeians). Some of the provisions of the law law established procedures for the conduct of the trials of defaulting debtors which provided a degree of protection. It also clarified the rules for the arrest of citizens. In those days there was not a police force and citizens were arrested by other citizens.
