What is Criminal Law?
Defined as that branch of public law which
defines crimes, treats of their nature and provides for
their punishment. It is also sometime referred to as
penal law.
How Criminal Laws originated?
EARLY CODES

CODE of Hammurabi

The Hittites

Code of
Drakon

Laws of Solon

The Revised
Penal Code

Romes twelve
tables

Characteristics of Criminal Law
In prehistoric times there is no written laws to
regulate human conduct, However, men still found
ways to avenge themselves from harm and injury caused
by another. They designed their own system of justice
according to what they believed was right and fair base
on their way of life, beliefs, and the norms of their
times.
Hammurabi, the king of
Babylon is recognized as the
first codifier of laws. The Code
is carved in stone provided the
first comprehensive view of
laws during his time.
The provisions of the
code were premised on the law
of talion (lex taliones), or the
principle of “an eye for an eye,
a tooth for a tooth”.
King Hammurabi
The Hittites existed about two centuries after the
reign of Hammurabi and they eventually conquered
Babylon, the laws of the Hittites may also be
characterized as brutal just like the Code of Hammurabi,
because they used death as punishment for many
offenses.
This was codified by Drakon, an Athenian
lawgiver in Athens, Greece, in seventh century
BC. This is known as the ultimate in severity
because of it’s severe penalties even for simple
offenses.
Solon

Solon is also an Athenian, was
appointed archon and was given legislative
powers. During his time he repealed
almost all the laws of the code of Drakon
and created laws that provided just
punishment. He is one of the first to see
that a lawgiver had to make laws that
applied equally to all citizens and also saw
that law of punishment had to maintain
proportionality to the crimes committed.
Solon is used to prefer to any member of
the Senate of the Representatives.
Roman law began with the twelve tables which
were written in the middle of the sixth century BC
by the Decemvirs. It was written in tables of bronze
and it became the foundation of all laws was created
and new systems of justice were established. And as
for long as men and society exist, laws would
continue to evolve in order to adapt to the changing
times and meet demands of society.
One of the resources of the
Philippine criminal law is Act No.

3815 otherwise known as the Revised
Penal Code or RPC .It was approved
on December 8,1930 and became
effective on January 1,1932. It
remains enforceable up to this day,
except for those provisions that have
already been repealed through the
passage of other special penal laws. It
was translated from the original penal
code by the Committee created by the
virtue of Administrative Order 94
issued on October 18,1927 by the
Department of Justice.
RPC is composed of two
books: Book one and Book
two.
Book one consits of two parts:
basic principles affecting
criminal liability, Articles 1-20
and the provisions on penalties,
Articles 21-113.
Book two contains the felonies
defined with the corresponding
penalties and these are
classified under different titles,
Articles 114-365.
1) It is general application or GENERALITY
2) It is territorial in character or TERRITORIALTY
-Philippine Archipelago
-Atmospheric water
-Maritime Zone
3) It is prospective or irrestrospective or PROSPECTIVE
4) It is SPECIFIC and DEFINITE
5) It is uniform in application
6) There must be a penal sanction or punishment
A one way of classifying crime is according to the law violated,
and one such classification is felony.
Felony or delito is an act or omission punishable by law which
is committed by means of dolo or deceit or culpa or fault and
punishable by the RPC.
Felonies committed by means of dolo or deceits are called
intentional felonies while those committed by means of culpa or fault
are called culpable felonies.
