Justinian I · The Digest of Justinian §12.2.8.pr
Application of the Oath's Effect to Singular Successors
Summary
Paulus supplements that the effect of the oath also applies to singular successors (those who have succeeded to the thing), meaning no action will be granted against them either.
Notes
- §12.2.8.prin rem successerint — Refers to 'succession to a thing' (singular succession, successio in rem), in contrast to 'succession to a position' (universal succession, successio in locum) in the preceding text of Ulpian (D. 12.2.7.pr). It is a subordinate clause introduced by the conjunction etiamsi (even if), with the verb in the third-person plural perfect subjunctive (or future perfect indicative), referring back to the successors (eos qui... succedunt) in the previous section.
