Recovery of Funeral Expenses from Estate Debtors

Passage 1816 of 9271 · Latin

Summary

Gaius adds that as a means of raising funeral expenses, the money may be collected from the debtors of the estate if it can be easily done.

[GAIUS libro nono decimo ad edictum prouinciale. ] §11.7.13.pruel a debitoribus si facile exigi possit.
[GAIUS in the nineteenth book on the Provincial Edict.] or from debtors, if it can easily be collected.

Notes

  1. §11.7.13.pruel a debitoribus — This fragment continues Ulpian's statement in the preceding section (D. 11.7.12.6) regarding the raising of money (pecunia expediatur / distrahi aut pignerari iubebit). A governing verb phrase of similar import is ellipted here, and the preposition "a/ab" indicates the source (the debtors) from whom the money is to be collected.
