The text discusses the devolution of a joint legacy of usufruct and ownership, and the non-applicability of the defense of res judicata in subsequent claims for accrued parts of a usufruct.
[PAPINIANUS libro septimo decimo quaestionum.]
[PAPINIANUS in the seventeenth book of Questions.]
Si Titio fructus, Maeuio proprietas legata sit et uiuo testatore1 Titius decedat, nihil apud scriptum heredem relinquetur: et id Neratius quoque respondit.
If usufruct should be bequeathed to Titius, and the ownership to Maevius, and Titius should die while the testator is still alive, nothing will remain with the appointed heir; and this is what Neratius also answered.
Usum fructum in quibusdam casibus non partis effectum optinere2 conuenit: unde si fundi uel fructus portio petatur et absolutione secuta postea pars altera quae adcreuit uindicetur, in lite quidem proprietatis iudicatae rei exceptionem obstare, in fructus uero non obstare scribit Iulianus, quoniam portio fundi uelut alluuio portioni, personae fructus adcresceret.3
It is agreed that in certain cases usufruct does not have the effect of a part; hence if a part of land or of a usufruct is claimed, and, absolution having followed, the other part which accrued is claimed afterwards, Julian writes that in a suit concerning ownership, the plea of res judicata stands in the way, but in a suit concerning usufruct, it does not stand in the way, because a part of land accrues to a part, as if by alluvion, but usufruct accrues to the person.
- 7.1.33.pruiuo testatore
An ablative absolute construction formed with the noun testatore and the adjective uiuo, where the participle of the copula (the verb esse) is omitted ('while the testator was still alive').
- 7.1.33.1non partis effectum optinere
An accusative with infinitive (AcI) construction serving as the subject of the impersonal verb conuenit ('it is agreed'). usum fructum is the subject accusative of the infinitive optinere, and partis is a genitive qualifying effectum ('the effect of a part').
- 7.1.33.1portio fundi uelut alluuio portioni, personae fructus adcresceret
A subordinate clause introduced by the conjunction quoniam ('since'), with the imperfect subjunctive adcresceret as its main verb. In the comparison introduced by the adverb uelut ('as if'), a verb such as adcrescit is omitted. In the contrast between portio fundi ... [portioni adcresceret] and personae fructus adcresceret, the dative personae depends on adcresceret.
