Explains the opinion of Celsus and Sabinus that if one person loses a lawsuit regarding a common servitude through their own fault, it should not prejudice the other co-owners.
[MARCIANUS libro quinto regularum.]
[MARCIANUS, book 5 of Rules.]
Si de communi seruitute quis bene quidem deberi intendit,1 sed aliquo modo litem perdidit culpa sua, non est aequum hoc ceteris de dolo2 Celsus scripsit, idque ait Sabino placuisse.
If, concerning a common servitude, someone has indeed rightly claimed that it is owed, but has in some way lost the suit through his own fault, it is not fair that this should be disadvantageous to the others; so Celsus wrote, and he says that this was approved by Sabinus.
- 8.5.19.prdeberi intendit
intendere is a technical legal term referring to the plaintiff's claim of a right in a lawsuit. deberi (passive infinitive) means that the servitude is owed, i.e., that it exists.
- 8.5.19.prceteris de dolo
In the presented text, an infinitive verb is missing between ceteris and de dolo (usually supplied as obesse 'to be disadvantageous' or nocere). This translation assumes the meaning of the judgment 'being disadvantageous' to the other joint owners (ceteris).
