This is an ongoing project. Here you can find all recent edicts after 2015.

Exceptions are the edicts of Australia which are on the Australia section of the website.

The edicts here will be categorized and added to separate pages as the project proceeds.

INDEX: Return to the Tabularium.

Introduction

Ius edicendi, the right to issue edicta (edicts) is enshrined in the Nova Roma constitution, defined as "the executive resolutions of the officers of the corporation" as per I.C. in the Constitutional Basis.

Edicta form part of the hierarchy of legal authority and legislation within Nova Roma. The constitution is the highest legal authority and takes precedence over all other legislation and any edicta. Below senatus consulta ultima, a legally appointed Dictator’s edicta takes precedence. After all other leges, decreta and normal senatus consulta, various magisterial edicta are permitted in order of office precedence as listed in IV.A. of the constitution.

For edicts to take effect, they must be published to the Forum Romanum, the official list in accordance with Lex Vedia de ratione edictorum. They will then be published here for record keeping. Edicts are also subject to ius intercessionis, intercessio (intercession; a veto) by magistrates of higher authority or from a Tribunus Plebis.

Edicta of the Magistratus Extraordinarii

The magistratus extraordinarii are those offices that are by exception, not part of the central elected government of Nova Roma. Offices include Dictator, Promagistratus (Promagistrate), and special commissioners. A typical promagistratus that can issue edicta are governors. Special commissioners include offices such as the praefectus rei publicae administrandae (chief executive officer) and the curator rei informaticae (chief information officer).

Due to the importance of these offices, and in some cases an absence of term limits, the edicta of the magistratus extraordinarii can be enduring. The edicta of these magistrates can last multiple years, remaining valid, so long as the issuing incumbent remains in the authorized office. Governor's edicta remain valid for the duration of their appointment, in accordance with the Lex Arminia de ministris provincialibus.

As per IV.B.1 of the constitution, a dictator's "...edicta, or the parts of an edictum that are not in conflict with a lex, the day-to-day management, operational actions and decisions implemented by the dictator for Nova Roma that do not create new law conflicting with laws of higher legal precedence, will not become reversed or annulled automatically after the tenure of the dictatura, only the changes to the legal system of Nova Roma which would be in conflict with existing leges, Senatus consulta or decreta".

The edicta of the magistratus extraordinarii are listed by office below:

Dictatorial Edicts

-Table of Dictator Edicts- (Comment: Each edict on it's own page, table will show status)

Title	Description	Date Enacted	Status	Ongoing Legislative Effects

Edicts of Special Commissioners

Edicts of the Praefectus rei publicae administrandae, Officium Administrationis Publicae (Comment: I think a new page here that details more about this role would go well, adding edicts at the bottom. The existing page on the PrPA looks like an SC, so I want to leave as is. If not, we'll expand that page)

Edicts of the Curator rei informaticae, Officum Rei Informaticae (Comment: I believe placing the edicts on this page under a heading is well suited)

Edicta of Provincial Governors

(Comment: Will link to existing tabulariums, if they exist.

Edicta of the Magistratus Ordinarii

The magistratus ordinarii are defined in IV.A. of the constitution. According to the Lex Arminia de ratione edictorum the edicts of these standard magistrates only last as long as their term in office.

The edicta of the magistratus ordinarii are listed by year below:

Edictum aedilis plebis M. Caecilii Metelli Tocaiensis de scriba creando

I. I hereby appoint C. Claudius Quadratus as my scriba aedilicius to the Officium Aedilicium Plebeium to work in my staff, and I recognize your work for the current ludi, therefore his appointment is dated from 19 April.

II. His job is to advise me in my capacity as aedilis plebis, to run games under my authority and officially held by me, or by me and my plebeian colleague, and to encourage cultural activities and ludi participation in Nova Roma.

III. No oath is required. Effective from 19 April.

M. Caecilius Metellus Tocaiensis AEDILIS PLEBIS

EDICTUM PRAETORIUM C. ARTORII DE FORIS PUBLICIS

Preamble Due to the slight upheaval of late in certain communication platforms, a topic has arisen that till now was not very important. Since the tyranny of an illegal self-proclaimed dictator the reputation of Nova Roma got damaged, and we are slowly rebuilding it. Sadly such a new blossoming flower can especially in the age of the internet be easily damaged. To safeguard the reputation of Nova Roma as an organisation, I issue this edictum after I have consulted the curator rei informaticae.

I. Every citizen has the right to open communication platforms as they see fit for gatherings, talks and so on. This is safeguarded by the leges of Nova Roma.

II. Every channel, platform or similar created by a private citizen alone has to be clearly distinguishable from official ways of communication of the Res Publica. This can be done through an attached descriptive word, for example "private", to the name "Nova Roma" or by not using the words "Nova Roma" or "official" or the use of the logo of Nova Roma in a misguiding way.

III. If a citizen talks about Nova Roma in another media platform, he is not allowed to pretend to be a magistrate, senator or otherwise elected or appointed officer.

This three rules should be clear and understandable. It safeguards the Reputation of Nova Roma as a whole against any unclear or prematured comments in groups that don't have a clearer insight into the Res Publica. I guarantues that every statement is visible as a personal opinion and not the opinion of the state.

ROGATIO HORTENSIA DE LEGIBUS SCRIBUNDIS (Text of the Law Proposal)

The purpose of this law is to make the Nova Roman legal system more Roman, more authentic and in harmony with with mos maiorum the restoration and celebration of which is the mission of Nova Roma.

I. The Roman names of leges

All leges of the Nova Roman people, the Quirites, past and future, shall be named after the magistrate who put them to vote and presided over their enactment. Even if the actual author who wrote the lex was a different person, regarding the auspices of the law and according to the Roman principles of formality, the legal author is always the convening and presiding magistrate and all leges shall be named after that magistrate. The name of the law shall derive from the nomen gentile of the magistrate.

I.A. It is possible for a lex to bear two names of the two magistrates if the convening magistrate wants to recognize the authorship of his or her colleague. The following options shall be permitted: a lex can be named after the two consules, after two praetores or after two of tribuni plebis. No other combination of magistrates is permitted. If the authoring officer was is a special officer, for example a dictator, consular tribune or other kind of officer with the power to legislate, the lex shall be named after the authoring officer, but with a maximum of two authoring officers of the same rank and title.

I.B. It shall be possible for a presiding magistrate of a legislative comitia to have a co-chairman who is a colleague in the same office for the session and to name the lex after the co-chairing colleague. Alternatively it also shall be possible to hold two comitia sessions at the same time, in complete concert regarding the schedules of the sessions, jointly with another magistrate and to name the lex after the magistrate convening the joint session. However, a lex can bear the name of the colleague of a single chairman presiding magistrate, too, if the presiding magistrate decides so, as described in section I.A.

II. Latin descriptive titles for all laws

The names of leges, including the Constitution and the Constitutional Amendments, which shall also be considered a special lex, of senatus consulta, decreta pontificum, edicta and all kind of legal documents shall be in Latin, formulated according to Roman customs. Incorrect names (whether they are incorrect in grammar or vocabulary only, or in the traditional way of phrasing certain Roman ideas and expressions) shall be corrected under the supervision of the praetores as described in section IV.

III. The Roman format of laws

All laws of Nova Roma shall be phrased and written according to ancient Roman formal requirements. These requirements shall be investigated and described by a committee consisting of at least two officially recognized Latinists and Classical Philologists, appointed to this task by the praetores. This committee shall revise and correct all legal documents, past and future, to ancient Roman format. The enactment of the correction shall be done under the supervision of the praetores according to the method described in section IV.

IV. Correction of laws

All existing and former laws (legal documents) and their names shall be revised and corrected the way as it is regulated in this law to meet the Roman standards described in this law, and to meet the standards of the grammar and orthography of the language in which they are written.

IV.A. The fixing of unauthentic and un-Roman elements, the addition of the missing Roman features shall be enacted in a form of edict by a praetor with the approval of the committee mentioned in section III. The members of the committee shall be mentioned in the edict.

IV.B.1. The correction of English or Latin (or any language) grammatical and idiomatic mistakes in the laws (all types of legal documents) corrected by the curator rei informaticae under praetorian supervision, described by the lex Equitia de corrigendis legum erratis, shall be likewise published in a form of edict by a praetor.

IV.B.2.The correction of simple mistakes of orthography and typology need not be enacted and published in an edict, but changes which alter words and phrases other than orthography or typography done according to the lex Equitia de corrigendis legum erratis shall only be made and shall only take force if these changes are listed and published in an edict by a praetor. It shall not be enough to publish only the corrected text of the law in the edict, the changes made to the text or to the name must be listed point by point, item by item.

IV.C. In the process of correcting the names of the leges, the name of the legislator of a lex after whom the lex was named may not be changed if the person was a consul or praetor (if the lex was made in a comitia centuriata or comitia populi tributa) or a tribunus plebis (if it was made by the plebeian assembly) at the time the lex was enacted, even if the person wasn't involved in the convening or presiding of the comitia which enacted the lex.

IV.D. It shall not be possible to change anything in any legal text in any other way than as described in this law.

V. Modification of laws

If a law is modified by another law, the modified law shall contain the original, unmodified text, and the new, modified text, too. The modifying laws and the modified sections shall be noted in the publication of the modified law. Each modified version of a law shall be displayed in full text separately but in the same page (or available from the same page, the matrix page of that law) in the tabularium. The current version of a law shall always be the first and most prominent, most easily available text of the law in question. The praetores shall decide in edict about the interpretations whether a certain law modifies, supersedes or repeals another law or not when it is not clearly stated in the law itself.

EDICTUM CONSULARE DE SERMONE ET MODERATIONE FORI (MAIN LIST MODERATION EDICT)

I, Q. Arrius Nauta, consul of Nova Roma for the current year, in the hope of increasing the participation of the citizenry and promoting a more free and lively, yet well-ordered, setting for the gathering and interaction of those who are citizens, including new citizens, of Nova Roma within our principal forum, promulgate the following edict for civil conduct within the Forum Novum Romanum:

I. I hereby rescind the EDICTUM INTERREGIS III DE FORO REI PUBLICAE LIBERAE of interrex Cn. Lentulus Alexander which designated the Saving-Nova-Roma list as the official Main List of Nova Roma in Cn. Lentulo Alexandro T. Domitio Dracone cos. (2016). and suspend the Saving-Nova-Roma mailing list as the official Main List of Nova Roma, and I authorize the TheForumRomanum mailing list as the new Main List of Nova Roma (de facto all business was migrated to here after the victorious solution of the "civil war"). This principal list is the Forum Cassium or the Forum Novum Romanum (also known as The Main List or the ML - https://groups.io/g/TheForumRomanum) founded and owned by M. Cassius Iulianus.

II. The Main List (ML) is open to everyone, regardless of citizenship status. The ML is not open to anyone under the age of 16 years.

III. Citizens are reminded that the ML is a moderated list, and all posts sent to the ML must conform to the requirements and restrictions of the laws of Nova Roma, including the current moderation edict.

IV. Citizens are reminded that the ML is not classified as an adult group and should govern their choice of language accordingly. Additionally, citizens should be aware that posts that may be considered defamatory, libelous or otherwise injurious could give rise to a cause of action either within Nova Roma under any current relevant leges, or macronationally in courts of competent jurisdiction and should therefore govern themselves accordingly.

V. Prohibited, disruptive or offensive conduct, language, or a combination thereof, as defined by either by the moderators, will be dealt with by warnings or imposed moderation or removing from the ML, in escalating measure. The moderators are not bound by precedent in deciding these matters, which will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.The fundamental rules of posting are the following:

V.A. Membership in this forum requires complete dedication and loyalty to Nova Roma. All members are supposed to be fans and supporters of Nova Roma. All members of this mailing list agree to support Nova Roma and its mission for advancing Romanitas and the rebirth of the Roman People united in Nova Roma all over the world. It is not permitted to discuss preferences for, or recruit for, other organizations on this forum. We acknowledge, respect and support all other Roman organizations as our brothers in this path, however, this forum was created and is maintained exclusively for the purpose of promoting Nova Roma. We require our group members to be enthusiastic, respectful, positive and supportive toward Nova Roma and its policies. Insulting and disrespecting Nova Roma and its policies, and any allied organization of Nova Roma will result in moderation and potential removal from the ML.

V.B. Rudeness is not accepted in the ML. Rudeness is a vice, an error in virtue, not worthy of a virtuous Roman. We are, among other things, an educational organization, and we must maintain a standard of tone and behavior. Nova Roma, as a revivalist community, doesn't just simply emulate everything from Rome, but we are reviving the Roman virtues, the best of Rome, particularly the cardinal Roman virtues of "dignitas" (behaving in a dignified way), "pietas" (respectful goodness within society), "gravitas" (self-control and restraint, seriousness in manner, causing feelings of respect and trust in others): "auctoritas" (the ability to make people do what you want, just by being who you are). Impolite words are not acceptable in the Main List. Phrase your criticisms always in a respectful and amicable way. It is not permitted to use harsh, insulting or hurtful language against other list members, or to conduct personal quarrels on the mailing list. Rudeness, impolite tone, insults and ad hominem attacks will result in moderation and potential removal from the ML.

VI. Serious consideration will be taken of any apology or explanation in defense of a behavior for which a penalty may be or has been considered by the moderators with the understanding that, ultimately, the decision of the moderators, subject to all legal forms of redress and veto within the Res Publica, will be considered final.

VII. All posts will be expected to be signed by the poster's Roman name. Roman letter format is mandatory, this is not a chat room or comment section, but the dignified forum of the New Roman People. Latin openings and closings are suggested and encouraged. More information about the use of Latin in email is given here:

http://www.novaroma.org/nr/Latin_for_e-mail

VIII. The business language of this mailing list is English, and its ceremonial language is Latin, but there is no restriction on the use of other languages. However, official communications from state authorities and announcements that concern the entire citizenry must be, or at least summarized. in English. If there is any suspicion or complaint regarding messages written in any language other than English, the moderators may either request an English translation of the suspicious message or have it translated by their scribes or by volunteer NR interpreters.

IX. Any message, in any language, found in default of laws of Nova Roma and this moderation edict, will be treated as violating items IV and V of this Edict and the sender may become subject to stricter moderation if his message contained insults that he hoped to veil by the use of a language other than English. Any future conflict will be adjudicated in compliance with the Lex Cornelia poenalis.

X. This edict shall take effect immediately.

EDICTUM CONSULARE DE QUAESTORIBUS ET AEDILIBUS TRIBUNISQUE PLEBIS PROROGANDIS

I.According to the senatus consultum ultimum de bello civili et de consilio directorum corporationis, the consuls are empowered to take care that the republic suffers no harm, and to do whatever they deem best to establish an interim corporate Board of Directors as quickly as possible.

II. Due to the preparations of the corporate Board of Directors election, our republic would suffer harm caused by the loss of the quaestores from office today, as their term would on today. Likewise, the term of the plebeian magistrates, the aediles and tribunes of plebs would end very soon on 10 December.

III. I deem it to be in the best interest of the republic and in great help toward establishing the legal corporate structure to allow the quaestors and the tribunes and aediles of the plebs to remain in office until 31 December, or until the election of their successors, whichever comes sooner.

II. There are still some governors who didn't report and some important officers who didn't pay the taxes. Hereby I officially reprimand those governors in a verbal reprimand who haven't submitted their provincial reports: the people of the Nova Roman Republic is disappointed in your sense of duty. Please rectify this situation and restore the confidence of the Nova Roman people in you. I have confidence in you that you can rectify this, and fulfill your duties, therefore I give one more extension, see section IV,

III. The curator rei informaticae (chief information officer) of Nova Roma, Cn. Cornelius Lentulus reported to me that our website soon (within 1-2 days) will be able to send mass emails to all citizens, and for this reason, I deem it to be in the best interest of the republic and in great help toward establishing the legal corporate structure to allow the citizens an extra time to finish their tax payments without penalty after the mass email has been sent out and more citizens have become informed than who are currently.

IV. Considering the above said, acting under the SCU, I extend once again the deadline for taxes and the provincial reports of governors until 20 December. On 21 December, all governors will lose their offices who didn't report, and all citizens will lose all titles, ranks and offices who didn't pay the taxes.

V. The following governors would have been automatically removed for non-fulfilment of their reporting duties if I had not issued this edict, whom I urge to submit their report in email to me or to my colleague (or publicly):

II. It shall use the same colors as the Nova Roma flag; featuring the territories making up the province of Germania on a crimson background, with a golden SPQR centered within a simple golden laurel wreath. Above the central images shall read the words 'Nova Roma', with 'Germania' written underneath. It shall adopt the same aspect ratios as the Nova Roma flag when flown or used together. The design is intended to look similar to the Nova Roma flag and that of similar existing provincial designs including Italia, Gallia and Brasilia.

III. The provincial flag will always remain subordinate to the Nova Roman flag. If there is only one flag to be used, that always have to be the Nova Roman flag. The provincial flag shall be used at events only if the event is specifically a provincial internal community event. The Nova Roman flag or vexillum must also be paraded if the provincial flag is to be present for an event. When both are flown together, the Nova Roman flag takes precedence and shall be flown first from the left, with the provincial flag to the right.

PRAETORIAL EDICTUM 73-06: Creation of the project "Munificentia Romana"

In order to implement paragraphs 5 of the Declaration of Nova Roma, I, Titus Flavius Severus, Praetor Novae Romae hereby create the project "Munificentia Romana".

This undertaking is dedicated to the memory of the pious man, resident of Sarmatia and good Roman Octavius Flavius Viscellinus, who died from the consequences of COVID-19. The "Munificentia Romana" aims to help those who are in need caused by the pandemic. Since the medical field is beyond our capabilities, the project is intended to help those whom we can really help, those who have lost their jobs, income and livelihoods as a result of the epidemic.

To implement the project, attract gratuitous funds allocated by prior agreement with the Provincial Council of Sarmatia from the budget of the Provincia Sarmatia.

The procedure, addressees and volumes of charitable assistance are determined by the decision of the project participants (working group).

Let the memory of the pious Roman Octavius Flavius Viscellinus live in our good deeds, through the "Munificentia Romana".

To implement this project, form a working group, and appoint there with all the obligations and privileges prescribed by the laws of Nova Roma:

Q. Vergilius Crassus, M. Marcia Aquilina, A. Flavia Philippa, M. Flavius Celsus.

No oath shall be required.

Edictum Proconsulare de rebus Provinciae Australiae intercedendis

I. Instructed by the senate, on the basis of my authorization as proconsul with greater imperium over certain provinces where I am not the actual governor, including Provincia Australia, I issue a special edict intervening into the internal matters of Australia in order to help and support the favorable developments in the province started by citizen D. Aurelius Ingeniarius.

II. D. Aurelius Ingeniarius started to develop an active local community of Nova Roma within Australia with promising success, entering contact with various Roman cultural organizations with the potential of alliance. As proconsul with supervising authority, I applaud and recognize the efforts of D. Aurelius. The governor of Australia, M. Claudius Nero legatus pro praetore is unfortunately incapacitated to conduct the necessary guiding and directing work and oversight, as he is located in a different geographical area, and as he is busy with other obligations and is currently unable to conduct fast and effective leadership, therefore I intervene with my imperium maius possessed over Australia and give the necessary authorizations to D. Aurelius Ingeniarius in order to build an active province of Nova Roma.

III. I hereby appoint citizen D. Aurelius Ingeniarius as my legatus in Australia, with the full title legatus proconsulis Cn. Lentuli Alexandri in Australia, and with the mandate to represent Nova Roma in my name and under proconsular power and authority. He has the special mandate to recruit citizens, recruit cooperating reenactment groups, and to establish a living and working community of Nova Romans in Australia.

IV. In addition to the previous office, I hereby appoint D. Aurelius Ingeniarius as the vice-governor of Provincia Australia, with the title praefectus provinciae Australiae administrandae. In this capacity, he reports to governor M. Nero legatus pro praetore Australiae, and secondarily, to me as his shared supervisor. His task is to govern Australia in lieu of the incapacitated governor, unless and until the governor becomes actively governing or instructs him otherwise. In case of need, I reserve the right to intervene, but intend not to, unless absolutely needed.

V. Oath of office is required, this edict takes effect immediately.

II. The magistrates, all the officers of the state, the priests and all citizens are hereby invited to offer sacrifices for L. Cornelius Sulla Felix on this next a.d. IV Id. Sex. (10 August).

III. Financed by donations, the Senate and People of Nova Roma, the Nova Roman Republic shall send a flower wreath and a ribbon inscribed with "NVLLVS AMICVS MELIOR NVLLVS INIMICVS PEIOR : NOVA ROMA AD SVLLAM" (No better friend, no worse enemy. From Nova Roma to Sulla) and a placard listing his offices to L. Sulla's funeral and/or to his grave or urn or memorial place.

Edictum consulare de Parilibus Pacis Deorum

I. After Nova Roma received the new Palladium and came into the possession of the worldwide renascent Roman People in its 20th year, on the Ides of October Sex. Lucilio C. Claudio P. Annaeo Q. Catulo tr. mil. cos. pot. (2770 AUC / 2017) at the Completion of the Founding of the New Roman Nation, and the Confirmation of the Declaration was issued by the royal decree of the interim rex sacrorum and interrex Cn. Lentulus Alexander, in which Nova Roma proclaimed itself as the property of all Romans around the world, and after the leaders of Nova Roma presented the new Palladium and Nova Roma in Rome on the Parilia C. Claudio T. Domitio (II) cos., (2771 AUC / 2018) in the 20th Anniversary, the Sacred Year of Concordia, Nova Roma entered a new phase in the history of Roman revivalism and reconstructionism, where a fully established New Roman People can honor the Roman gods. After all these important steps, this year the Parilia, the birthday of Rome, and the Pascha or Easter fall on the same day, today.

II. The end of the history of our ancestors, the ancient Romans, was marked by an exacerbated religious conflict between the traditional Roman religion and the Christian religion, when Rome adopted the Christian religion as its state religion, and the old religion of our gods was banned. Rome fell, and the Roman People soon disappeared as an entity and identity. There are still among us who cannot forget that Christianity eliminated our ancestral religion, however, during the 1500 years after the fall of Rome, Christianity also became an ancestral religion of Rome, and almost all of the ancestors of the present day Nova Romans were Christians generations after generations since the fall of Rome. The state religion of Rome was Christian ever since, and Christianity rules Rome and the inhabitants of Rome today. We cannot deny these facts, and as a polytheist culture, we cannot deny the divinity of the Christian god or the validity of the Christian religion, either. We cannot continue to consider the Christian god a foreign god, either, after his cult in Rome was established about 1950 years ago and it has been the official religion for 1600 years. It would be impietas not to recognize the god of our more recent ancestors, because honoring our ancestors is the core of the Roman religion. The period of hostility or ambivalence shall end, and we shall reconcile the old gods of Rome with the Christian god of Rome.

III. Based on the advice of pontifex Cn. Lentulus, I interpret the coincidence of the Parilia and the Pascha as a sign for Nova Roma: after the recent developments of Nova Roma, the Completion of the Founding, the establishment of the new Palladium, the bringing of the Palladium back to Rome, the Roman gods are pleased, and the Christian god of Rome and the old gods of Rome are giving a joint sign together on the birthday of Rome: the rebirth of Rome has really started.

IV. For all these reasons, I hereby give the mandate to pontifex Cn. Cornelius Lentulus, praefectus rei publicae, quaestor, to conduct the Parilia rituals in my name and under my consular, head of state, auspices, and I order him that he request all the gods of Rome, the Lares, Manes, Penates and Genius of the Roman People, that they recognize this Parilia as the start of a new era in Roman revivalism, and that they confirm the new Pax Deorum, not only because Nova Roma has made its contract with them at the Completion of the Founding ceremony, which has been dutifully maintained, but also as a recognition that the revival of the Roman People is the will of both the old Roman gods and the Christian god of Rome, who can be worshiped as one of the gods of Rome and the Roman People, in order to establish the new Pax Deorum.

Edictum de nuptiis festis publicis Cn. Lentuli et Popilliae

Cn. Cornelius Lentulus who was acclaimed as pater patriae by the senate for his numerous merits of developing the live aspects of Nova Roma in the greatest extent, for his achievements of making Nova Roma thrive for over the last decade and his efforts of saving Nova Roma in the past few turbulent years, is having a Roman confarreatio wedding on a.d. XVII Kal. Oct. (September 15) with T. Popillia Laenas. This is an extremely rare occasion of modern or Nova Roman history that we can publicly celebrate an official state wedding according to the most ancient Roman traditions. It is an important event of reconstruction and restoration of Roman way of life as practiced within community in our time, and it deserves our attention, support and good wishes, not only as a serious event of Roman reconstructionism, but also because Cn. Cornelius Lentulus gave so much to our community that we Nova Romans are almost like his greater family, and as family, we shall celebrate this joyous day with newly weds.

For these reasons, the praetorship of Nova Roma wishes to remark the day of the wedding of Cn. Cornelius Lentulus and Popillia Laenas, and I declare the day of a.d. XVII Kal. Oct. (September 15) as a public festival as part of the Ludi Romani, and I officially call the magistrates, priests and citizens of Nova Roma to pray and make offerings for the wedding and happy marriage of Cn. Lentulus and Popillia so that their Nova Roman marruage bring blessings to our republic as well, that Cn. Lentulus can continue and increase his contributions and now with an extended family, and hopefully many children who would then join the ranks of the active and dedicated citizens of Nova Roma.

Good wishes and reports about the performed offerings should be sent to the forums of Nova Roma and to the couple privately at Cn. Cornelius Lentulus' address: cn_corn_lent@yahoo.it

As a.d. XVII Kal. Oct. (September 15), the wedding day of Cn. Cornelius Lentulus and Popillia Laenas is declared a public holiday, the courts of Nova Roma and the praetorial offices will be closed that day.

and

Cn. Cornelius Lentulus PONTIFEX PRO PONTIFICE MAXIMO

From here, reverse chronological order is followed:'

EDICTUM CENSORIS P. ANNÆI CONSTANTINI PLACIDI DE DESIGNATIONE PRINCIPIS SENATUS

Preamble

Inasmuch as the Senatus Consultum de Ratione Senatus X.C.5.g. stipulates the following:

“If the Princeps Senatus cannot be contacted either between the call to convene and the call to order during a formal meeting of the Senate in session, then the Censors shall appoint a Senator of their choice to act for the princeps senatus during that session only. That Senator should match exactly or as close as possible, in their opinion, the requirements under X.A. Should the Princeps Senatus subsequently declare himself/herself present before the call to close, the appointment of the acting Princeps Senatus shall be automatically terminated.”

in my capacity as the sole Censor of Nova Roma, I am issuing the following unofficial, non-corporate censorial edictum to be enacted as temporary measures, not to be held as binding under the corporate constitution of Nova Roma, Inc. or the regulations of the State of Maine:

I. In my capacity as the sole Censor of Nova Roma, I declare that the current Acting Princeps Senatus, L. Cornelius Sulla Felix, cannot be contacted, because he, as one of the organizers and leaders of a coup d’etat against the Nova Roman Republic, attacked the res publica, the rule of law and the legal order, and the Senate and People of Nova Roma, and by doing so, he removed himself from among the good standing citizens of Nova Roma and from the commonwealth of law and order of Nova Roma; and because, by every reasonable assessment of his character, his involvement in the proceedings of this honorable Council can be expected to be greatly subversive, disruptive and driven by malicious agenda of enforcing only his strictly personal goals on his own advantage, his involvement and contacting him is reasonably expected to provoke his vicious attacks against the law-abiding citizens of Nova Roma, and it would result in his obstructing the procedures of this lawful Senate to the detriment of Nova Roma and to the cause of restoring the res publica; thus I conclude, confirm and declare that contacting the current Acting Princeps Senatus, L. Cornelius Sulla Felix, and involving him into the business of this Order, is impossible, as he is not among the honorable citizens of Nova Roma, as it is dangerous and potentially very harmful, given his and his faction’s agenda; therefore it is against the interests of the Senate and People of Nova Roma, and against the spirit of our laws.

II. In the absence of the official, corporate Acting Princeps Senatus, I appoint Senatrix A. Tullia Scholastica to act as Princeps Senatus during our next session only.

III. This unofficial, non-corporate censorial Edictum shall not have any legal meaning or official status either under the laws of the State of Maine or within the context of Nova Roma, Inc. as a corporation chartered in the State of Maine, USA; however, it shall become an official Edictum of the Nova Roman Censor upon later confirmation by the lawful, legal state and corporate authorities of Nova Roma after order is restored to the Republic.

IV. Authorized by the NONCORPORATE SENATUS CONSULTUM ULTIMUM ON THE APPOINTMENT OF A NONCORPORATE INTERREX AND ON THE HOLDING OF NONCORPORATE ELECTIONS, the voting will be conducted by e-mails, by a method specified on the opening day of the voting period.

V. Authorized by the NONCORPORATE SENATUS CONSULTUM ULTIMUM ON THE APPOINTMENT OF A NONCORPORATE INTERREX AND ON THE HOLDING OF NONCORPORATE ELECTIONS, the time between this convening of the Comitia and the start of voting is hereby shortened from the period required by the lex Cornelia de ratione comitiorum centuriatorum, because the favorable auspices were obtained explicitly for 10th October, and there is urgency not to delay this elections for more weeks.

VI. This unofficial, Non-Corporate Session of the Comitia Centuriata shall not have any legal meaning or official status either under the laws of the State of Maine or within the context of Nova Roma, Inc. as a corporation chartered in the State of Maine, USA; however, it shall become an official Session of the Nova Roman Comitia Centuriata upon later confirmation by the lawful, legal state and corporate authorities of Nova Roma after order is restored to the Republic.

III. The temporary diribitores, Sex. Lucilius Tutor and Q. Arrius Nauta, shall have access to the Cista e-mail box, and they shall count the votes, supervise the electoral porcess and report the results as required by the laws of Nova Roma in force.

IV. No other change is done to the regular electoral process as defined by the laws of Nova Roma in force.

V. After the results of the election have been announced, pontifex Cn. Cornelius Lentulus is authorized by this edict operating under the NONCORPORATE SENATUS CONSULTUM ULTIMUM ON THE APPOINTMENT OF A NONCORPORATE INTERREX AND ON THE HOLDING OF NONCORPORATE ELECTIONS, to convene the Comitia Curiata to invest the consules designati with imperium. This present edict also validates the Comitia Curiata session certified by pontifex Cn. Cornelius Lentulus which ceremonially invested Cn. Cornelius Lentulus Alexander with imperium, adding the commentary that neither the imperium of the interrex needed, nor the that of consuls need Comitia Curiata approval when operating under a senatus consultum ultimum. As per the instructions of this present edictum, the lex curiata de imperio on the newly elected non-corporate consules will take effect immediately after the first lictor curiatus has witnessed the investment.

VI.

EDICTUM CENSORIS P. ANNÆI CONSTANTINI PLACIDI DE DESIGNATIONE PRINCIPIS SENATUS

Preamble

Inasmuch as the Senatus Consultum de Ratione Senatus X.C.5.g. stipulates the following:

“If the Princeps Senatus cannot be contacted either between the call to convene and the call to order during a formal meeting of the Senate in session, then the Censors shall appoint a Senator of their choice to act for the princeps senatus during that session only. That Senator should match exactly or as close as possible, in their opinion, the requirements under X.A. Should the Princeps Senatus subsequently declare himself/herself present before the call to close, the appointment of the acting Princeps Senatus shall be automatically terminated.”

in my capacity as the sole Censor of Nova Roma, I am issuing the following unofficial, non-corporate censorial edictum to be enacted as temporary measures, not to be held as binding under the corporate constitution of Nova Roma, Inc. or the regulations of the State of Maine:

I. In my capacity as the sole Censor of Nova Roma, I declare that the current Acting Princeps Senatus, L. Cornelius Sulla Felix, cannot be contacted, because he, as one of the organizers and leaders of a coup d’état against the Nova Roman Republic, attacked the Res Publica, the rule of law and the legal order, and the Senate and People of Nova Roma, and by doing so, he removed himself from among the good standing citizens of Nova Roma and from the commonwealth of law and order of Nova Roma; and because, by every reasonable assessment of his character, his involvement in the proceedings of this honorable Council can be expected to be greatly subversive, disruptive and driven by malicious agenda of enforcing only his strictly personal goals on his own advantage, his involvement and contacting him is reasonably expected to provoke his vicious attacks against the law-abiding citizens of Nova Roma, and it would result in his obstructing the procedures of this lawful Senate to the detriment of Nova Roma and to the cause of restoring the Res Publica; thus I conclude, confirm and declare that contacting the current Acting Princeps Senatus, L. Cornelius Sulla Felix, and involving him into the business of this Order, is impossible, as he is not among the honorable citizens of Nova Roma, and it is dangerous and potentially very harmful, given his and his faction’s agenda; therefore it is against the interests of the Senate and People of Nova Roma, and against the spirit of our laws.

II. In the absence of the official, corporate Acting Princeps Senatus, I appoint Senatrix A. Tullia Scholastica to act as Princeps Senatus during our next session only.

III. This unofficial, non-corporate censorial Edictum shall not have any legal meaning or official status either under the laws of the State of Maine or within the context of Nova Roma, Inc. as a corporation chartered in the State of Maine, USA; however, it shall become an official Edictum of the Nova Roman Censor upon later confirmation by the lawful, legal state and corporate authorities of Nova Roma after order is restored to the Republic.

EDICTUM TRIBUNICIUM II Lucilii Claudii Annaei Lutatii on diplomatic relations with other Roman organizations

I. This edictum is an unanimous decision of all the four tribuni militum consulari potestate, and it determines the short term policy on the diplomatic relations of the Non-Corporate Nova Roma with three other Roman organizations that had ultimately originated in Nova Roma but left our Roman res publica and nation due to the atrocities and abuses committed by the Sulla-Caesar Faction between 2009 and 2015.

II. The Non-Corporate Free Nova Roma acknowledges, respects and recognizes the members of the “Res Publica Romana” Organization (est. 2011), “Roman Republic” Organization (est. 2016), and “Roma Aeterna” Organization (est. 2017) as brothers on the Roman path that we walk on together, and Nova Roma insists that these organizations (as well as all other benevolent Roman groups) must maintain mutual respect, friendship and good intentions towards each other.

III. The Non-corporate Nova Roma will enforce a policy on our communication fora that will require posters of our fora to be polite, respectful and positive towards all these aforementioned Roman organizations. The Non-corporate Nova Roma will defend our Roman brothers and sisters in whichever community they belong to. Insulting and disrespecting any of these Roman organizations will result in moderation and potential removal from our communication fora. We respectfully expect the aforementioned groups to apply the same policy regarding Nova Roma on their own communication fora.

IV. Our aim is to maintain peaceful coexistence, the mutual ban of insults between our organizations and cooperation for the greater good of the Roman revivalist movement. This might include help to each others’ organizations when in trouble: the content and nature of this help must be discussed each time the necessity arises. Future cooperation can include common projects, decided and discussed from idea to idea. The decision about common projects and cooperative actions shall be decided by the tribuni militum consulari potestate, unless the decision affects areas under the authority of the senate, the people or the priestly colleges, in which case the decision shall be made by the bodies affected.

V. For inter-organizational negotiations and discussion, the Non-corporate Nova Roma elects to conduct discussions on a third party platform, which shall be, for the time being, a Facebook chat group, and Nova Roma shall be represented by the tribuni militum consulari potestate who can delegate this role to their appointed representatives. The names of the current inter-organizational representatives, who are delegated to stand in for their appointing consular tribunes, are:

1. Consular Tribune Sex. Lucilius is represented by T. Domitius Daco as Proconsul, 2. Consular Tribune P. Annaeus is represented by Cn. Cornelius Lentulus as Praefectus Officio Tribunicio Praetorio and Quaestor, 3. Consular Tribune C. Claudius will represent himself, 4. Consular Tribune Q. Catulus will represent himself.

+[[Category:Legal system (Nova Roma)]]
+'''INDEX''': Return to the '''''[[Legal system (Nova Roma)|Tabularium]]'''''.
+==Introduction==
+'''''Ius edicendi''''', the right to issue ''edicta'' (edicts) is enshrined in the ''[[Lex_Cornelia_Domitia_de_re_publica_constituenda_(Nova_Roma)|Nova Roma constitution]]'', defined as ''"the executive resolutions of the officers of the corporation"'' as per I.C. in the Constitutional Basis.
+Edicta form part of the hierarchy of legal authority and legislation within Nova Roma. The  [[Lex_Cornelia_Domitia_de_re_publica_constituenda_(Nova_Roma)|constitution]] is the highest legal authority and takes precedence over all other legislation and any edicta. Below ''[[Senatus Consulta Ultima (Nova Roma)|senatus consulta ultima]]'', a legally appointed Dictator’s edicta takes precedence. After all other ''[[List of leges (Nova Roma)|leges]]'', ''[[:Category:Decreta (Nova Roma)|decreta]]'' and normal ''[[:Category:Senatus consulta (Nova Roma) |senatus consulta]]'', various magisterial edicta are permitted in order of office precedence as listed in IV.A. of the [[Lex_Cornelia_Domitia_de_re_publica_constituenda_(Nova_Roma)|constitution]].
+For edicts to take effect, they must be published to the ''[https://groups.io/g/TheForumRomanum Forum Romanum]'', the official list in accordance with ''[[Lex Vedia de ratione edictorum (Nova Roma)|Lex Vedia de ratione edictorum]]''. They will then be published here for record keeping. Edicts are also subject to ''ius intercessionis'', ''intercessio'' (intercession; a veto) by magistrates of higher authority or from a Tribunus Plebis.
+==Edicta of the Magistratus Extraordinarii==
+The ''magistratus extraordinarii'' are those offices that are by exception, not part of the central elected government of Nova Roma. Offices include ''Dictator'', ''Promagistratus'' (Promagistrate), and special commissioners. A typical promagistratus that can issue edicta are [[List of current governors|governors]]. Special commissioners include offices such as the ''[[Praefectus rei publicae administrandae (Nova Roma)|praefectus rei publicae administrandae]]'' (chief executive officer) and the ''[[Curator rei informaticae (Nova Roma)|curator rei informaticae]]'' (chief information officer).
+Due to the importance of these offices, and in some cases an absence of term limits, the edicta of the magistratus extraordinarii can be enduring. The edicta of these magistrates can last multiple years, remaining valid, so long as the issuing incumbent remains in the authorized office. Governor's edicta remain valid for the duration of their appointment, in accordance with the ''[[Lex Arminia de ministris provincialibus (Nova Roma)|Lex Arminia de ministris provincialibus]]''.
+As per IV.B.1 of the [[Lex_Cornelia_Domitia_de_re_publica_constituenda_(Nova_Roma)#IV._Magistrates|constitution]], a dictator's ''"...edicta, or the parts of an edictum that are not in conflict with a lex, the day-to-day management, operational actions and decisions implemented by the dictator for Nova Roma that do not create new law conflicting with laws of higher legal precedence, will not become reversed or annulled automatically after the tenure of the dictatura, only the changes to the legal system of Nova Roma which would be in conflict with existing leges, Senatus consulta or decreta"''.
+:The edicta of the ''magistratus extraordinarii'' are listed by office below:
