Classification of magistracies
The praetores are the second highest executive magistrates and vice-presidents of the Nova Roman Republic and are considered as lower colleagues and deputies for the consules. There are two praetores in Nova Roma and their principal duty is to oversee the official fora and to administer the judicial sytem.
The office of the current praetores can be found here.
To stand for election as praetor, a potential candidate is required to be at least 27 years old, must be assiduus, must have been a citizen of Nova Roma for at least three years, and must have held one or more of the following positions for at least six months: tribunus plebis, plebeian aedilis, curule aedile, quaestor, or Senator.[1]
Duties and powers of the praetores
The Constitution of Nova Roma says about the praetores:
- 3. Praetor. Two praetors shall be elected by the comitia centuriata to serve a term lasting one year. They shall have the following honors, powers, and obligations:
- a. To hold Imperium and have the honor of being preceded by six lictors;
- b. To issue those edicta (edicts) necessary to engage in those tasks which advance the mission and function of Nova Roma and to administer the law (such edicts being binding upon themselves as well as others);
- c. To call the Senate, the comitia centuriata, and the comitia populi tributa to order when the Consuls are unavailable;
- d. To pronounce intercessio against another praetor or magistrate of lesser authority;
- e. To appoint scribae (clerks) to assist with administrative and other tasks, as they shall see fit.
- 3. Praetor. Two praetors shall be elected by the comitia centuriata to serve a term lasting one year. They shall have the following honors, powers, and obligations:
