Summary/Abstract: The article is dedicated to the imperial constitutions in the Theodosian Code concerning a bishop's jurisdiction in civil matters (CTh.1.27.1 and CTh.1.27.2). The compulsory jurisdiction of the bishop's court according to the law of emperor Constantine I promulgated 318 AD (CTh.1.27.1) and the authenticity of the text are justified. The transformation of bishop's jurisdiction to arbitration inter volentes with the constitution promulgated 408 AD (CTh.1.27.2) is demonstrated. The problems of appeal and enforcement of the bishop's decisions under the two imperial laws are discussed.
