Pomponius explains that even a grandson born in the household of an adoptive father loses all rights in the adoptive family upon the emancipation of his father.
[POMPONIUS libro quinto ad Sabinum.]
[POMPONIUS in the fifth book on Sabinus.]
Sed etiam nepos ex filio apud adoptatum patrem1 conceptus et natus per emancipationem2 iura omnia perdit.
But even a grandson born of a son, who was conceived and born in the household of the adoptive father, loses all his rights through emancipation.
- 1.7.14.pradoptatum patrem
Here adoptatum patrem (literally "the adopted father") refers to the adoptive grandfather of the grandson (i.e., the adoptive father of the son). The passive participle adoptatus is used here in the sense of the adjective adoptivus ("adoptive").
- 1.7.14.prper emancipationem
The subject of the emancipation (emancipatio) is the "son" (filius) who was adopted. When the son, who is under the paternal power (patria potestas), is emancipated, the grandson who is dependent on him also loses his familial ties and all rights in the adoptive family.
