This section discusses the scope of the duty to restore inheritance property when the possessed assets change after the lawsuit is brought, the remedy for insufficient sureties, and the calculation of fruits from things received in pledge by the deceased.
[GAIUS libro sexto ad edictum prouinciale.]
[GAIUS in his sixth book on the Provincial Edict.]
Si quo tempore conueniebatur possessor hereditatis, pauciores res possidebat, deinde aliarum quoque rerum possessionem adsumpsit, eas quoque uictus1 restituere debebit, siue ante acceptum iudicium siue postea adquisierit possessionem. et si fideiussores, quos dederat, ad litem non sufficiant, iubere eum debebit proconsul ut idonee caueat. ex diuerso quoque si pauciores postea possidebit, quam initio possidebat, si modo id sine dolo eius acciderit, absolui debet quod ad eas res quas desiit possidere.
If, at the time when the possessor of the inheritance was sued, he possessed fewer things, and then assumed possession of other things too, he will, if defeated, have to restore those as well, whether he acquired possession before or after the acceptance of the trial. And if the sureties whom he had given are not sufficient for the litigation, the proconsul will have to order him to give suitable security. Conversely, also, if he shall later possess fewer things than he possessed at the beginning, provided that this happened without his fraud, he ought to be acquitted as regards those things which he ceased to possess.
Fructus computandos2 etiam earum rerum, quas defunctus pignori accepit, Iulianus ait.
Julian says that the fruits of even those things which the deceased received in pledge are to be calculated.
