What is the importance of having a written law code

 A written law code (as opposed to a unwritten one) provides all sides a security that the law will stay the same and that all people will have a fair access to it - for example if the law says something about a marriage, you can be sure that this won't be twisted later by people interpreting the law differently (as could be the case in an unwritten law) - in case of doubt, you can look at the original
