LEX ARMINIA DE MINISTRIS PROVINCIALIBVS

This law applies to clarify a specific case in the Lex Arminia de Edictis.

  1. Due to the passing of Potestas et Imperium, when there is a change of Propraetor or Proconsul in a province, all of his provincial apparitores (such as Scribae, Legati, etc.) are automatically relieved from their duties. If the new propraetor or proconsul desires to keep a previous apparitor, he must re-issue an edictum nominating him or her.
  2. Confirming the Lex Arminia de Edictis, all provincial edicta are automatically revoked when there is a change of propraetor or proconsul, and the new magistrate does not confirm them in his Imperium.
  3. When the term of a Propraetor or Proconsul of a province is extended by the Senate, there is no need to re-issue the edicta of the previous year; the same magistrate is the issuer.

Passed by Comitia Populi Tributa, Yes-25; No-7; Abstain-3
