Based on the opinion of Paulus, it states that in a protest against a new structure or a noxal action, the procurator's allowance of the other party's act is also deemed a defense, provided that security is given for the principal's ratification.
[PAULUS libro octauo ad edictum.]
[PAULUS in the eighth book on the Edict.]
uel in operis noui nuntiatione.1 sed et si seruum ex causa noxali patiatur duci, defendere uidetur: ita tamen, ut in his omnibus ratam rem dominum habiturum2 caueat.
or in the case of a protest against a new structure. But also, if he allows a slave to be led away on account of a noxal cause, he is considered to defend; provided, however, that in all these cases he gives security that the principal will ratify the matter.
- 3.3.36.pruel in operis noui nuntiatione
This phrase connects directly to the end of the previous fragment by Ulpian (§3.3.35.3), grammatically depending on either 'patiatur' (allows) or 'defendere uidetur' (is considered to defend). It signifies that yielding to a protest against a new structure (operis novi nuntiatio) is also treated as a defense by the procurator.
- 3.3.36.prratam rem dominum habiturum
The infinitive 'habiturum' (with 'esse' omitted) forms an accusative with infinitive construction, specifying the content of the security ('cautio de rato') inside the 'ut' clause governed by 'caueat'. The phrase 'rem ratam habere' is a legal idiom meaning 'to ratify or approve an act', meaning that the procurator must guarantee that the principal will not contest the settlement.
