Perpetual Nature and Transmissibility to Heirs

Passage 2214 of 9271 · Latin

Summary

It is explained that these actions are granted permanently without limitation of time and are transmissible both to the heirs of the plaintiff and against the heirs of the defendant.

[ULPIANUS libro uicensimo octauo ad edictum. ] §14.3.15.prNouissime sciendum est has actiones perpetuo dari et in heredem et heredibus.
[ULPIANUS from the twenty-eighth book on the Edict.] Finally, it must be known that these actions are granted permanently, both against the heir and to the heirs.

Notes

  1. §14.3.15.pret in heredem et heredibus — This coordinates two different grammatical constructions: in heredem (accusative with preposition in, meaning 'against the heir' of the defendant, i.e., passive transmission) and heredibus (dative, meaning 'to the heirs' of the plaintiff, i.e., active transmission).
