States that those who serve as assessors in their province beyond the time permitted by imperial constitutions are not considered to be absent on public business.
[PAULUS libro tertio ad legem Iuliam et Papiam.]
[PAULUS, On the Julian and Papian Law, Book III]
Hi, qui in prouincia sua ultra tempus a constitutionibus concessum1 adsident,2 publica causa abesse non intelleguntur.3
Those who act as assessors in their own province beyond the period granted by the imperial constitutions are not understood to be absent on public business.
- 4.6.37.prconcessum
The perfect passive participle of concedere in the neuter accusative singular, modifying the preceding noun tempus (period). The ablative of agent a constitutionibus (by the constitutions) is dependent on this participle, forming the phrase "the period granted by the constitutions."
- 4.6.37.pradsident
The verb adsidere (or assidere) here refers to serving as an assessor (assessor), a legal advisor who sits by a provincial governor or magistrate to assist them. In this context, it describes remaining in this office beyond the legally permitted term.
- 4.6.37.prnon intelleguntur
An instance of the nominative with infinitive (nominativus cum infinitivo) construction. The subject of the passive main verb intelleguntur (Hi, qui...) also functions as the logical subject of the infinitive abesse, meaning "they are not understood to be absent."
