This section states the legal principle that if both parties have acted with malicious intent, they cannot bring an action on fraud against each other.
[MARCIANUS libro secundo regularum.]
[MARCIANUS, in the second book of Rules.]
Si duo dolo malo fecerint, inuicem de dolo non agent.1
If two persons have acted with malicious intent, they shall not bring an action on fraud against each other.
- 4.3.36.prde dolo non agent
The verb agere is used in its technical legal sense of "to bring an action" with the object actionem omitted. Combined with the prepositional phrase de dolo (concerning fraud), it means "to bring an action on fraud." The subject is duo from the preceding clause.
