A Doctor of Canon and Civil Law, from the Latin doctor utriusque iuris, or iuris utriusque doctor, or doctor iuris utriusque ("doctor of both laws") is a scholar who has acquired a doctorate in both civil law and church law. The degree was common among Catholic and German scholars[1] of the Middle Ages and early modern times, but is less so today. In unique circumstances, ex-President of the U.S. Grover Cleveland was given the J.U.D. as an honorary degree by the Augustinian College of St. Thomas of Villanova in 1902.[2]
The degree can be abbreviated in many ways: JUD, IUD, DUJ, JUDr., DUI, DJU, Dr.iur.utr., DIU, UJD or UID.
