Magistracy overview


The praetores are the second highest executive magistrates and vice-presidents of the Nova Roman Republic and are considered as lower colleagues deputies for the consules. There are two praetores in Nova Roma and their principle duty is to oversee the official fora and to administer the judicial sytem.

To stand for election as praetor, a potential candidate is required to be at least 25 years old as of the effective date of office, must already have served at least six months as a consul, praetor, aedilis, quaestor, tribunus plebis, magister aranearius (formerly curator araneae), editor commentariorum (formerly curator differum), rogator, or provincial governor and must be assiduus.

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.
