The concept and features to the coded act (code)

Abstract

This paper contains a classification of the main features of the codified act, which differentiates it from uncoded normative legal acts. One of the key features discussed in the article relates to the dominant position of the code in relation to other normative acts, of the same level, so that the author comes up with a de lege ferenda proposal to enshrine this position. Systematizing the various doctrinal opinions, the author finally comes up with his own doctrinal enumeration of the features that represent, in her opinion, the most relevant characteristics of the codified act.
