Justinian I · The Digest of Justinian §47.9.2.pr

Territorial Scope of the Edict on Shipwrecks

Passage 7989 of 9271 · Latin

Summary

An extremely brief juristic fragment addressing that the scope of the edict on shipwreck concerns the place as well as the time.

[GAIUS libro uicensimo primo ad edictum prouinciale. ] §47.9.2.pret loco,
[GAIUS, on the Provincial Edict, book twenty-one.] and regarding the place,

Notes

  1. §47.9.2.pret loco — Corresponds to `de eo tempore` (regarding that time) in the preceding passage by Ulpian (§47.9.1.5), with the preposition `de` understood before the ablative `loco`. It indicates that in applying the edict to things taken from a shipwreck, the spatial scope (place) should be interpreted in the same manner as the temporal scope.
