Callistratus discusses the interpretation of "absence without malicious intent" as a condition for relieving those absent on state business, explaining that failing to return when possible or arranging to be absent on state business for other benefits excludes one from the privilege.

Item hi; qui rei publicae causa sine dolo malo afuissent.1 dolum malum eo pertinere accepi, ut qui reuerti potest neque reuerteretur, in eo, quod per id tempus aduersus eum factum est, non adiuuetur:2 ueluti si alterius grandis commodi captandi gratia id egerit, ut rei publicae causa abesset, et reuocatur3 ab isto priuilegio,
Likewise those who had been absent without malicious intent for the sake of the state. I have understood that malicious intent extends to this effect, that one who is able to return and yet did not return is not assisted in respect of what was done against him during that time: for example, if for the sake of grasping some other great advantage he so managed that he was absent for the sake of the state, and he is barred from that privilege,
- 4.6.4.prhi; qui... afuissent
The main verb of the clause (such as "are assisted" or "are deemed to be absent") is omitted and must be supplied from the preceding context of the edict's relief provisions.
- 4.6.4.preo pertinere... ut... non adiuuetur
The ut clause (noun clause) details the substance of the infinitive phrase eo pertinere (to extend to this effect, to mean this).
- 4.6.4.prreuocatur
This is the main verb of the apodosis relative to the conditional clause si... egerit (perfect subjunctive or future perfect indicative), expressively determining the legal consequence of exclusion from the privilege in the present indicative.
