[PAULUS libro tertio decimo ad edictum. ] §4.8.10.pruel alium arbitrum
[PAULUS in his thirteenth book on the Edict.] or [have chosen] another arbitrator.
Justinian I · The Digest of Justinian §4.8.10.pr
Effect of Choosing a Different Arbitrator
Summary
Presents a very brief and fragmentary opinion of Paulus regarding the case where the parties disregard the original arbitrator and choose another.
Notes
- 4.8.10.pruel alium arbitrum — This is an extremely fragmentary text. It is understood by supplying the context from the preceding passage of Ulpianus (§4.8.9.5), where the litigants disregarded the arbitrator's authority and 'went to court or [chose/went to] another arbitrator.' The accusative 'alium arbitrum' functions as the object of an omitted verb (such as 'elegerint' or 'adierint'), or is governed by the preposition 'ad' understood from the previous clause.
