As a judge in France, Maurice is not allowed to interpret the law but relies on a strict set of codes to determine the outcome of a case. Which type of law is in place in France?

The correct answer is: Civil law system.

Explanation:

A civil law system is the type of legal regime in which the laws set must be literally followed in front of Court and cannot be modified in any sense by the judges. The role of judges under this regime is to dictate the facts of the trial and to come to a decision found in the civil law system.
