Explains that while imperial agents lack the criminal jurisdiction to deport individuals or permit their return, they possess the authority to prohibit entry into imperial estates to protect tenants.
[CALLISTRATUS libro sexto de cognitionibus.]
[CALLISTRATUS, On Extraordinary Proceedings, book 6.]
Curatores Caesaris ius deportandi non habent, quia huius poenae constituendae ius non habent.
The imperial agents do not have the right of deportation, because they do not have the right to impose this penalty.
Si tamen quasi tumultuosum uel iniuriosum1 aduersus colonos Caesaris prohibuerint in praedia Caesariana accedere, abstinere debebit2 idque diuus Pius Iulio rescripsit.
If, however, they should prohibit someone from entering the imperial estates, on the ground of being, as it were, turbulent or injurious toward the emperor’s tenants, that person must abstain from doing so; and the deified Pius replied to this effect by rescript to Julius.
Deinde neque redire cuiquam permittere possunt idque imperatores nostri Seuerus et Antoninus ad libellum Hermiae rescripserunt.
Furthermore, they cannot permit anyone to return either, and our emperors Severus and Antoninus replied to this effect by rescript to the petition of Hermias.
- 1.19.3.1quasi tumultuosum uel iniuriosum
These accusative singular masculine adjectives modify an omitted pronoun (such as eum) which functions as the object of prohibuerint and the subject accusative of the infinitive accedere ("as a turbulent or injurious person").
- 1.19.3.1abstinere debebit
The subject of the verb switches from the plural (curatores, subject of prohibuerint) to the third-person singular. The subject of debebit is the individual who is banned from entering, implied by "tumultuosum uel iniuriosum".
