Pomponius states that if a neighbor suffers damage from an opening where no servitude exists, the stipulation for threatened damage (damnum infectum) must apply.
[POMPONIUS libro trigensimo secundo ad Quintum Mucium.]
[POMPONIUS, in the thirty-second book on Quintus Mucius.]
Si quid igitur ex eo foramine, ex quo seruitus non consistit, damnum uicinus sensisset,1 dicendum est damni infecti2 stipulationem locum habere.
Therefore, if a neighbor should have suffered any damage from that opening, on which a servitude does not exist, it must be said that the stipulation for threatened damage has place.
- 8.2.29.prsensisset
The pluperfect subjunctive expresses a counterfactual condition in the past ('if he had suffered') or a hypothetical event completed prior to the time of the main clause ('if he should have suffered'). In this context, it refers to potential or actual damage arising from the hole discussed in the previous section.
- 8.2.29.prdamni infecti
A genitive modifying stipulationem, meaning 'of threatened damage' (damage not yet done). It refers to the legal remedy (stipulatio damni infecti) whereby a neighbor is required to provide security against potential future damage arising from their property.
