Questions about the Jewish Code of monetary and civil law.
Choshen Mishpat is the Hebrew for "Breastplate of Judgement". The term is associated with one of the four sections of Rabbi Jacob ben Asher's compilation of halakha (Jewish law), Arba'ah Turim. This section treats aspects of Jewish law pertinent to finance, torts, legal procedure and loans and interest in Judaism.

There is a significant overlap between money and choshen-mishpat-civil-law, but each contains questions that the other doesn't. For example, questions about currency would generally not be tagged choshen-mishpat-civil-law, and questions about property damage would generally not be tagged money.
