Justinian I · The Digest of Justinian §6.2.4.pr
Delivery for Payment and the Publician Action
Summary
Delivery for the purpose of discharge (payment) is presented as another just cause that justifies the Publician action.
Notes
- 6.2.4.pruel soluendi causa — A construction where the gerund soluendi (genitive of solvere, 'to discharge, pay') modifies the ablative causa ('for the sake of, on the basis of'). The compilers of the Digest connected this fragment directly to the preceding passage of Ulpian (D. 6.2.3.1, concerning delivery based on a judgment) to provide an additional example of a 'just cause' (iusta causa) for the Publician action.
