Affinity or Succession to the Adversary

Passage 505 of 9271 · Latin

Summary

Paulus describes the situations where a representative is connected to the adversary by affinity or becomes their heir.

[PAULUS libro octauo ad edictum. ] §3.3.22.praut adfinitate aliqua aduersario iungatur, uel heres ei existat;
[PAULUS, in the eighth book on the Edict.] or if he should be joined to the adversary by some affinity, or should become his heir;

Notes

  1. §3.3.22.priungatur — The third-person singular present passive subjunctive. This verb and the subsequent `existat` continue the list of verbs inside the conditional clause introduced by `si` (if) in the preceding chunk (§3.3.21.pr), expressing a hypothetical condition.
  2. §3.3.22.prei — Dative singular pronoun referring to the preceding `aduersario` (the adversary). It depends on `heres` to denote the relation "his heir".
