L. was a well-known French humanist jurist and politique who wrote extensively on both Roman and French customary law. He lacks a full-scale modern biography. A brief English-language account, placing him in his time, can be found in N. L. Roelker, One King, One Faith (Berkeley 1996) 32–3. The Godefroy edition of the Corpus Iuris Civilis has many notes and comments by him.
