  Salic Law - LoveToKnow 1911
So late as the 10th and iith centuries we find certain texts invoking the Salic Law, but only in a vague and general way; and it would be rash to conclude from this that the Salic Law was still in force.

 Lex Salica
In der Lex Salica wurden alte mündlich überlieferte Rechtsgepflogenheiten erstmals schriftlich niedergelegt.
Obwohl wahrscheinlich jünger als der Codex Euricianus und die Lex Burgundionum, bewahrt die Lex Salica mehr Germanisch-Altertümliches, weil der Grad der Romanisierung der Franken zum betreffenden Zeitpunkt noch geringer war.
Diese besondere Bestimmung der Lex Salica wird heute oft als das Salische Recht schlechthin verstanden.

The Lex Gundobada (Loi Gombette) was adopted (c.501) for Burgundians and for cases involving both Burgundians and Romans, while the Lex Romana Burgundiorum (c.506), also from the reign of Gundobad, applied only to the Romans in the Burgundian kingdom.
Most ancient and also most important was the law of the Salian Franks, Lex Salica, first compiled (c.508-11) under Clovis I, which exerted great influence, for it was the fundamental law of the Merovingian and Carolingian rulers and later of the Holy Roman emperors.
The Lex Saxonum and the Lex Angliorum et Verinorum probably owe their compilation to the initiative of Charlemagne; the Lex Ripuaria of the Ripuarian Franks, the Lex Baiuvariorum, and the Lex Alamannorum are distinguished by inclusions of public law.

The Lex Salica, for example, was not the law of a district, it was the law of a race.
Definitions of lex and ius and so forth were learnt by heart; little catechisms were complied1; but of anything that we should dare to call an education in Roman law there are few, if any, indisputable signs before the school of Bologna appears in the second half of the eleventh century.

The Lex Salica is not concerned with the relationship of the king to his subjects; nor did Frankish law make a distinction between civil and criminal law.
Under the Lex Salica, a person found guilty of committing a any crime would be forced to pay a certain fee to the victim (or the victim’s family) and a separate fee to the court.

 Essay - : - Capital Punishment by Madalina Antip
The first written law that regulates sanctions on crimes is lex talionis, which involves punishment in kind and is commonly expressed as “an eye for an eye”.
The second, lex salica involves punishment through compensation and the harm inflicted can be repaired.
As a strict formula of punishment lex talionis is inadequate because if a terrorist kills ten people, taking his single life is technically not a punishment in kind.

The Salic law (Latin lex Salica) was a body of traditional law to govern the Salian Franks that was codified in the early 6th century, during the reign of Clovis I.
Salic law was the basis for the laws of Charlemagne, but by the 12th century, both the Frankish kings and their laws had changed.
As actually interpreted by the Salian Franks, the law simply prohibited women from inheriting, not all property (such as movables), but ancestral "Salic land", and under Chilperic I sometime around the year 570, the law was actually amended to permit inheritance of land by a daughter if a man had no surviving sons.

Lex Baiuvariorum: dated about A.D. 744-748, these Bavarian laws were subsequent to and substantially based on the Alamannic laws, and both strongly resemble the laws of the Merovingian Franks.
Analysis of those sixty-five titles confirms the description of this early Frankish law as "primarily a penal law...concerned with the redress of crimes (murder, theft, mutilation, exploitation of women) by monetary means."54 Twenty titles deal with various aspects of theft,55 eighteen treat acts of violence against persons,56 and twelve are concerned with procedure.
Compiled almost a hundred years later than the Lex Salica, its text is essentially the same as the earlier law upon which it seems to draw as a model.

 AllRefer.com - Germanic laws : Important Codes (Law: Divisions And Codes) - Encyclopedia
Probably the oldest Germanic codes is the Codex Euricianus by King Euric, the personal law of the Visigoths; a related code was adopted in 506 under Alaric II, the Lex Romana Visigothorum, or Breviary of Alaric, for the Roman subjects.
Both were later superseded (c.654) by the Lex Visigothorum, or Liber iudiciorum, compiled under Chindaswinth and Recceswinth; this for the first time applied to Goths and Romans alike.
Most ancient and also most important was the law of the Salian Franks, Lex Salica, first compiled (c.508–11) under Clovis I, which exerted great influence, for it was the fundamental law of the Merovingian and Carolingian rulers and later of the Holy Roman emperors.

 Capital Punishment [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
First, lex talionis retribution involves punishment in kind and is commonly expressed in the expression "an eye for an eye." Second, lex salica retribution involves punishment through compensation, and the harm inflicted can be repaired by payment or atonement.
If a belief in lex talionis retribution is foundational, then, by definition, it cannot be defended by appealing to a prior set of reasons.
Finally, critics of capital punishment argue that the true basis of retributive justifications of capital punishment is not at all foundational, but instead rooted in psychological feelings of vengeance.

In the Lex salica we several times find sunnis, in connection with tricare, tenere, detenere, in order to express a legitimate delay which would excuse a person's non-appearance in court.
Precisely the same conception of idoneus is found in the Lex romana raetica curiensis, where the "clericus idoneus," the well-to-do, "reliable" clerical is opposed to the "inferior," while the credible witness is known as "idonia persona," (8) even as is explicitly stated in the Burgundian laws.
