527 Emperor Justinian I (527 – 565)

Inheritances of Jewish Children

The Orthodox children of heretics, who have not sinned against them, shall receive undiminished what is due them in intestacy; a last will done in violation of this shall be invalidated, with the except of the manumissions, if they are not prevented by any law. If they shall sin in anything against their parents, they shall be charged and punished. Even those who have sinned shall have a quarter of their property, contrary to the testaments. The same also in regard to Jews and Samaritans.
