Justinian I · The Digest of Justinian §48.22.10.pr
Prohibition of Restricting Necessary Expenses for Those under House Arrest
Summary
Marcianus states that even if someone is sentenced not to leave their home, they cannot be forbidden from making necessary expenditures.
Notes
- §48.22.10.prnec tamen, ne necessarias impensas faciat — The predicate 'potest damnare' from the preceding chunk (§48.22.9.pr: 'potest praeses quendam damnare, ne...') is understood to be omitted here. Thus, the syntax is reconstructed as 'nec tamen [potest damnare], ne...', meaning 'and yet [he cannot sentence someone] not to make necessary expenditures,' which practically allows the person to make necessary outlays.
