Abstract
The laws of Cape Verde are unusual in that the islands were uninhabited prior to the arrival of the Portuguese and their legal system. The extent to which Capeverdean law is and is likely to be influenced by Portuguese law is considered. The article concludes that whilst some original legal solutions have been developed in Cape Verde, its limited legal resources and the continuing close ties with Portugal will remain but this should be seen as a strength rather than a weakness of the legal system.
