On the senate's decree limiting the scope of documents that a person facing a claim by the treasury is compelled to disclose to an informer.
[MAURICIANUS libro secundo de poenis.]
[MAURICIANUS, on Penalties, book 2]
Senatus censuit, ne quisquam eorum, a quibus quid fisco1 petetur, alia instrumenta delatori cogatur edere, quam quae2 ad eam causam pertinerent, ex qua se deferre professus est.3
The senate decreed that no one of those from whom anything is claimed for the imperial treasury should be compelled to disclose to an informer any other documents than those which related to the case on the basis of which the informer professed that he was bringing the accusation.
- 2.13.3.prfisco
Dative of advantage (dativus commodi) meaning "for the imperial treasury", indicating that the claim is being made for the benefit of the treasury.
- 2.13.3.pralia instrumenta ... quam quae
The correlative construction alia ... quam (other ... than). quae is a relative pronoun (neuter plural nominative) with the antecedent instrumenta omitted, meaning "other than [the documents] which...".
- 2.13.3.prse deferre professus est
The subject of professus est (third-person singular perfect of the deponent verb profiteor, "to profess") is the informer (delatori), taking the accusative with infinitive construction se deferre ("that he brings [the accusation]") as its object. deferre here means to bring an accusation or report.
