p.173, Citing Heinrich Canisius (1548-1610), Commentarius in titulo de regulis iuris libri VI. decretalium (Coloniae Agrippinae 1662) 575 Ius commune dicitur favorabile, ut pote ab omnibus ob publicam utilitatem receptam. Hinc odiosa censentur, quae juri communi contariantur, uti privilegia, dispensationes, statuta singularia . . . Omnis dispositio in dubio recipit interpretationem a jure communi (Ius commune is said to be  preferred as received according to the public good by everyone; those thing are considered hateful which are contrary to the Ius commune, such as privileges, dispensations, private laws; every act that is doubtful must be interpreted according to the Ius commune) Boniface VIII, Liber sextus, De regulis iuris 28: "Quae a iure commune exorbitant, nequaquam ad consequentiam sunt trahenda."(Those things that deviate from common legal norms must never be taken as precedent)
