Concurrence of Penal Actions and Non-Extinguishment

Passage 9190 of 9271 · Latin

Summary

It states the principle that when multiple actions, especially penal ones, concur concerning the same matter, one never extinguishes another.

[ULPIANUS libro octauo decimo ad edictum. ] §50.17.130.prNumquam actiones, praesertim poenales, de eadem re concurrentes alia aliam consumit.
[ULPIAN, in the eighteenth book on the edict.]\n\nActions, especially penal ones, which run together concerning the same matter, never consume one another.

Notes

  1. §50.17.130.practiones... alia aliam consumit — For the plural subject noun 'actiones', the predicate part uses the distributive pronouns 'alia' (feminine singular nominative) and 'aliam' (feminine singular accusative) with the singular verb 'consumit' to express a reciprocal relationship ('one does not consume another').
