Ulpian confirms the correctness of Neratius' opinion that a usufructuary cannot remove useful things even if he intends to replace them with better ones.
[IDEM libro quadragensimo ad edictum.]
[THE SAME, On the Edict, book 40]
quamuis melius repositurus sit:1 quae sententia2 uera est.
even though he is going to replace it with something better; which opinion is true.
- 7.1.8.prquamuis melius repositurus sit
This concessive clause depends on the infinitive phrase "neque autem ampliare nec utile detrahere posse" at the end of the preceding fragment (D. 7.1.7.3), meaning "even though he intends to replace it with something better." The word "repositurus" is the future active participle of "reponere" (to replace, rebuild), combined with the subjunctive "sit" to denote the subject's intention.
- 7.1.8.prquae sententia
A relative connection using the relative pronoun "quae" in its adjective-like use, referring back to the opinion (sententia) of Neratius mentioned in the preceding fragment.
