- 9.2.14.prdandam in eum legatario actionem
This is an accusative-with-infinitive clause serving as the subject of the impersonal dictum est (it has been said), with the copula esse omitted after the gerundive dandam. in eum refers to the heir (ipse heres) who committed the killing, and legatario (to the legatee) is a dative indicating the recipient of the action.
