Summary

Prescribes that a litigation procurator must be replaced, even upon the request of the procurator himself.

[PAULUS, in the eighth book on the Edict.] he must be replaced, even if the procurator himself requests it.

Notes

  1. §3.3.24.prmutari debebit uel ipso procuratore postulante — The subject of the main verb mutari debebit is the *procurator* (agent) carried over from the previous section (D. 3.3.23.pr). The future tense *debebit* is used here to express a legal obligation or mandate. *ipso procuratore postulante* is an ablative absolute using the present participle, which, accompanied by the conjunction *uel* (even, or), adds a concessive condition: "even on the application of the agent himself."
