Paulus states that restitution should be granted not only for the actual loss of property but also for the failure to make a gain, even if there is no direct depletion of one's existing estate.
[PAULUS libro duodecimo ad edictum.]
[PAULUS in the twelfth book on the Edict.]
Et siue quid amiserit uel lucratus non sit,1 restitutio facienda est, etiam si non ex bonis2 quid amissum sit.
And whether one has lost something or has not made a gain, restitution must be made, even if nothing has been lost from one’s estate.
- 4.6.27.prlucratus non sit
Perfect subjunctive of the deponent verb lucror (to make a gain), with active meaning. It is contrasted with the preceding amiserit (lost), referring to the failure to make an expected gain (lucrum cessans) rather than an active loss of existing property.
- 4.6.27.prex bonis
Ablative of the noun bona (property, estate) governed by the preposition ex. It refers to a direct depletion or deduction from one's existing active assets.
