In the area of slave law, Miró established new rules that affected both slaves and their masters. Under the French Code Noir (Black Code), masters were given virtually complete legal authority over their slaves. Spanish slave law respected the rights of slave owners, but also gave slaves the right to complain to the Cabildo about poor treatment. Miró also instituted the Spanish practice of coartación (self-purchase) for slaves. Under this system, slaves could accumulate money and property. If they earned enough, they could even buy their own freedom. If their master did not wish to sell the slave or set a price, the slave could appeal to Spanish authorities and have a price set. How did Miró’s laws compare to Spanish laws on the practice of slavery in Louisiana? Miró’s laws were less relaxed than the more open Spanish laws.
