Adds that the agreement not to sue made by a filius familias also benefits his father when sued in an action concerning enrichment, or when acting as the son's defender if he so prefers.
[GAIUS libro primo ad edictum prouinciale.]
[GAIUS, On the Provincial Edict, book 1]
uel de in rem uerso,1 uel si quasi defensor filii, si hoc maluerit,2 conueniatur,
or [sued] concerning what has been turned to his profit, or if he is sued as if he were a defender of his son, if he should prefer this,
- 2.14.20.prde in rem uerso
The phrase depends on the omitted structure of the conditional clause 'si... conueniatur' from the preceding sentence (§2.14.19.pr), referring to being sued in an action concerning enrichment (actio de in rem verso).
- 2.14.20.prsi hoc maluerit
Subjunctive perfect (or future perfect indicative). The subject is the father (pater) understood from the context, and the demonstrative 'hoc' anticipates and refers to the following clause 'quasi defensor filii... conueniatur' (being sued as his son's defender).
