This section states that a minor can implore the aid of restoration to his original condition even if he has been condemned as if for contumacy.
[HERMOGENIANUS libro primo iuris epitomarum.]
[HERMOGENIANUS in the first book of the Epitomes of Law.]
Minor etiam si quasi contumax1 condemnatus sit, in integrum restitutionis auxilium implorabit.
A minor, even if he has been condemned as if for contumacy, will implore the aid of restoration to his original condition.
- 4.4.8.prquasi contumax
The word contumax here refers to a "contumacious" or disobedient party who fails to appear in court after being summoned. The phrase quasi contumax condemnatus sit describes a situation where a party is condemned as if in default or for contempt of court, regardless of actual intent. Even against such procedural disadvantages, a minor is allowed to seek the remedy of restoration to the original condition (in integrum restitutio).
