[Iulianus libro secundo ex Minicio. ] §16.3.10.prNec aduersus coheredes eius, qui dolo carent, depositi actio competit.
[JULIANUS libro secundo ex Minicio.] Nor does the action on deposit lie against his co-heirs, who are free from fraud.
Justinian I · The Digest of Justinian §16.3.10.pr
Action on Deposit Barred against Innocent Co-Heirs
Summary
Establishes that the action on deposit cannot be brought against the co-heirs of a wrongdoer if they themselves are free from fraud.
Notes
- §16.3.10.prcoheredes eius, qui dolo carent — The relative pronoun qui (nominative plural) takes the plural noun coheredes as its antecedent, rather than the immediately preceding singular genitive eius. The pronoun eius refers to the heir who committed the fraud (mentioned in the preceding section 9.pr), and the clause qui dolo carent qualifies his co-heirs who themselves are free from fraud.
