The definition of the "peremptory edict" obtained after a third summons, explaining that its name derives from "destroying" (perimere) the dispute by preventing further evasion.
[IDEM libro octauo disputationum.]
[THE SAME, in the Eighth Book of Disputations.]
et tertium: quibus propositis1 tunc peremptorium2 impetret. quod inde hoc nomen sumpsit, quod peremeret3 disceptationem, hoc est ultra non pateretur aduersarium tergiuersari.
and a third; and when these have been issued, then he may obtain a peremptory edict. This has taken its name from the fact that it destroys (perimere) the dispute, that is, it does not allow the opponent to prevaricate any further.
