§4.8.10.pr

​uel alium arbitrum1

​or [have chosen] another arbitrator.

Syntax notes1 item
  1. 4.8.10.pruel alium arbitrum

    This is an extremely fragmentary text. It is understood by supplying the context from the preceding passage of Ulpianus (§4.8.9.5), where the litigants disregarded the arbitrator's authority and 'went to court or [chose/went to] another arbitrator.' The accusative 'alium arbitrum' functions as the object of an omitted verb (such as 'elegerint' or 'adierint'), or is governed by the preposition 'ad' understood from the previous clause.
