Justinian I · The Digest of Justinian §2.14.11.pr
Agreements by Agents Benefiting the Principal
Summary
Presents the ground that an agreement made by an agent can benefit the principal, based on the fact that payment can also be made to the agent.
Notes
- §2.14.11.prsolui ei potest — A combination of the impersonally used 'potest' and the passive infinitive 'solui' (from 'soluere', 'to pay'). Literally meaning 'it is possible for it to be paid to him', it indicates that a valid payment can be made to the agent. The dative pronoun 'ei' refers to the agent (procurator) mentioned in the preceding section (D. 2.14.10.2). The adverbial 'et' ('also') links the capacity to receive payment with the capacity to make an agreement that benefits the principal.
