This section rules that a slave who causes damage to the same property both before the acceptance of the inheritance and after being freed is liable under both actions, as these are considered distinct acts.
[PAULUS libro trigensimo nono ad edictum.]
[PAULUS, in the thirty-ninth book on the Edict.]
Si seruus ante aditam hereditatem1 damnum in re hereditaria dederit et liber factus in ea re damnum det, utraque actione tenebitur, quia alterius et alterius facti2 hae res sunt.
If a slave, before the inheritance is accepted, has caused damage to property belonging to the inheritance, and, after being made free, causes damage to that same property, he will be liable under both actions, because these matters belong to distinct acts.
- 9.2.48.prante aditam hereditatem
The preposition ante (before) is followed by the noun hereditatem and its agreeing perfect passive participle aditam, forming a construction equivalent to 'before the acceptance of the inheritance' (similar to the ab urbe condita construction).
- 9.2.48.pralterius et alterius facti
Genitive of quality or description, used predicatively with the subject hae res (these matters) to indicate that they arise from or belong to distinct acts.
