JURISPRUDENCE (bouvier) | JURISPRUDENCE. The science of the law. By science here, is understood that
connexion of truths which is founded on principles either evident in
themselves, or capable of demonstration; a collection of truths of the same
kind, arranged in methodical order. In a more confined sense, jurisprudence
is the practical science of giving a wise interpretation to the laws, and
making a just application of them to all cases as they arise. In this sense,
it is the habit of judging the same questions in the same manner, and by
this course of judgments forming precedents. 1 Ayl. Pand. 3 Toull. Dr. Civ.
Fr. tit. prel. s. 1, n. 1, 12, 99; Merl. Rep. h.t.; 19 Amer. Jurist, 3.

MEDICAL JURISPRUDENC (bouvier) | MEDICAL JURISPRUDENCE. That science which applies the principles and
practice of the different branches of medicine to the elucidation of
doubtful questions in courts of justice. By some authors, it is used in a
more extensive sense and also comprehends Medical Police, or those medical
precepts which may prove useful to the legislature or the magistracy. Some
authors, instead of using the phrase medical jurisprudence, employ, to
convey the same idea, those of legal medicine, forensic medicine, or, as the
Germans have it, state medicine.
2. The best American writers on this subject are Doctors T. R. Beck and
J. B. Beck, Elements of Medical Jurisprudence; Doctor Thomas Cooper; Doctor
James S. Stringham, who was the first individual to deliver a course of
lectures on medical jurisprudence, in this country; Doctor Charles Caldwell.
Among the British writers may be enumerated Doctor John Gordon Smith; Doctor
Male; Doctor Paris and Mr. Fonblanque, who published a joint work; Mr.
Chitty, and Dr. Ryan. The French writers are numerous; Briand, Biessy,
Esquirol, Georget, Falret, Trebuchet, Mare, and others, have written
treatises or published papers on this subject; the learned Fodere published
a work entitled "Les Lois eclairees par les sciences physiques ou Traite de
Medecine Legale et d'hygiene publique;" the "Annale d'hygiene et de Medecine
Legale," is one of the most valued works on this subject. Among the Germans
may be found Rose's Manual on Medico Legal Dissection; Metzger's Principles
of Legal Medicine, and others. The reader is referred for a list of authors
and their works on Medical Jurisprudence, to Dupin, Profession d'Avocat,
tom. ii., p. 343, art. 1617 to 1636, bis. For a history of the rise and
progress of Medical Jurisprudence, see Traill, Med. Jur. 13.

RESPONSA PRUDENTUM (bouvier) | RESPONSA PRUDENTUM, civil law. Opinions given by Roman lawyers. Before the
time of Augustus, every lawyer was authorized de jure, to answer questions
put to him, and all such answers, response prudentum had equal authority,
which had not the force of law, but the opinion of a lawyer. Augustus was
the first prince who gave to certain distinguished jurisconsults the
particular privilege of answering in his name; and from that period their
answers required greater authority. Adrian determined in a more precise
manner the degree of authority which these answers should have, by enacting
that the opinions of such authorized jurisconsults, when unanimously given,
should have the force of law (legis vicenz,) and should be followed by the
judges; and that when they were divided, the judge was allowed to adopt that
which to him appeared the most equitable.
2. The opinions of other lawyers held the same place they had before,
they were considered merely as the opinions of learned men. Mackel. Man.
