Johannes Faber Super Institutiones Justiniani
Rubrics in Justinian's Institutiones, glossed by Johannes Faber:

Glosa videtur sentire et clarius in lectione littus quod sit differentia inter maris littora et fluminum, qr littora maris sunt quousque maximus fluctus pervenit non sic de ripis si flumen inundet (videlicet l. ripa de flu.) Ego credo quod littus maris sit quantum maximus fluctus estuat in hyeme perenniter quando fortiter vento concutitur sed non credo quod illud quod ultra cooperit in plenilunio martii semel vel bis in anno sicut evenit in mari occidentali sit littus per d.S.r. dixit super
I think this is from a printed 1500s copy in the University of Texas Law Library, but the online catalog only shows a mircrofilm copy of the 1480 Lyon edition.
I worked as the Latin expert on a case involving oil royalties from the Laguna Madre, which hung upon whether that body of water was included in a land patent granted by the Spanish crown when it owned Texas.
The Renaissance Latin commentary, which surrounds the medieval Spanish text of Alfonzo el Sabio's Siete Partidas was considered legally binding, and cites a bunch of Roman and medieval Latin law concerning the boundaries of bodies of water and their ownership, including Johannes Faber.
