It is discussed that if someone drives another's oxen into a narrow place causing them to fall, an action on the case (actio in factum) modeled on the Lex Aquilia is granted.
[NERATIUS libro primo membranarum.]
[NERATIUS, in the first book of Parchments.]
Boues alienos in angustum locum coegisti eoque1 effectum est, ut deicerentur: datur in te ad exemplum legis aquiliae in factum actio.2
You drove another’s oxen into a narrow place, and thereby it was brought about that they fell down: an action on the case (in factum) is given against you after the model of the Lex Aquilia.
- 9.2.53.preoque
This is the ablative neuter singular of the demonstrative pronoun eo with the enclitic conjunction -que, meaning "and thereby" or "and by this." It refers back to the action of the preceding clause as the cause.
- 9.2.53.prad exemplum legis aquiliae in factum actio
Indicates that because there is no direct physical contact (failing to satisfy the 'corpore corpori' requirement), the Lex Aquilia itself is not directly applicable, but the praetor grants an action on the case (actio in factum) by analogy, extending the principle of the statute.
