Constitutions of Catalonia

The Constitutions of Catalonia, or Catalan constitutions, were the laws of the Principality of Catalonia, introduced by the Count of Barcelona and passed by the Catalan Courts. Continuing the legal framework of the earlier Usages of Barcelona, the first constitutions passed by the Courts were promulgated in 1283, and the last in the Corts of 1705 to 1706. They took precedence over other legal rules, including royal decrees, and could be revoked only by the Catalan Courts themselves. Compilations of the constitutions and other Catalan rights followed the Roman tradition of the Codex.
