This section explains that arbitrators are appointed to determine the size of lands and that a party possessing a larger share is compelled to make over the complete portion to those holding smaller shares, as confirmed by a rescript.
[MODESTINUS libro undecimo pandectarum.]
[MODESTINUS, Book XI of the Pandects.]
De modo agrorum arbitri dantur et is, qui maiorem locum in territorio habere dicitur,1 ceteris, qui minorem locum possident, integrum locum2 adsignare compellitur: idque ita rescriptum est.
Arbitrators are appointed concerning the measure of fields, and he who is said to have a larger portion of land in the territory is compelled to assign the full portion of land to the others who possess a smaller portion; and this has been so ruled in a rescript.
- 10.1.7.prhabere dicitur
This is a nominative with infinitive (NCI) construction where qui (referring to is) acts as the subject of the passive verb dicitur. Instead of an impersonal construction like dicitur eum habere ("it is said that he has"), the personal passive construction is used.
- 10.1.7.printegrum locum
Here, integrum locum ("undamaged place" or "complete land") refers to the "proper or complete share/plot" that should be restored to make up for the deficiency in boundary or measurement disputes. It functions as the direct object of the infinitive adsignare.
