D AVRELIVS INGENIARIVS

Praetor Rei Publicae Novae Romae

Edictum Praetorium de Legibus Mutandis


Praetorial edict for the change of laws in 2774

I. In accordance with article I of the Lex Cornelia Domitia de re publica constituenda, the primary duty of the praetors is to cast decisions and interpretation on leges when there is an issue with the validity or interpretation of a law, or part thereof. Exercising iurisdictio, the following decisions are made for the various affected leges that came into force in Q. Arrio (III) A. Tullia cos. or earlier. Subject to intervention of those with the iurisdictio, the following decisions will be published as necessary as commentary on the affected official leges.

II. With the approval of the Lex Arria de decuriis apparitorum, article I of the Lex Arminia de ministris tribunorum, is now in conflict. In line with the legislation of article I of the Lex Cornelia Domitia de re publica constituenda, the most recent lex takes precedence. By this edict, a praetorian comment is to be placed referencing article I of the Lex Arminia acknowledging the impact associated with the now updated Lex Vedia apparitoria. The following comment is to be placed against article I in the Lex Arminia:

“Article I is no longer considered valid, with precedence given to the modifications introduced by the Lex Arria de decuriis apparitorum. Other titles other than viator are now permissible under the Lex Vedia apparitoria.”

III. An accompanying praetorian comment should also be lodged with article V of the now modified Lex Vedia apparitoria, which enforces that all appointees to a Decuriae viatorum are of the Plebeian class, in accordance with the Lex Arminia.

IV. Article III.A. of the Lex Arria Tullia de quibusdam legibus obsoletis abrogandis corrigundisve states required changes to sections III.A.3-4 of the Lex Arria de censu civium aestimando. However, the new lex still publishes new additional text under III.A.2. for the lex Arria. By this edict, article III.A.2. from the lex Arria Tullia will also replace the III.A.2. of the lex Arria de censu civium aestimando.

V. The published version of the lex Minucia de eiuratione magistratuum has found to be misrepresenting the true final form of the comitia approved lex.

A. The publication of this law has contained, for a decade, a variant text for this very same lex which was in fact just a non-final draft of the rogatio, never to be accepted by vote. This draft version was published as the primary text, and the real, accepted text was only given as the second text on this page. The final version of the lex Minucia as accepted by the comitia tributa only addressed the magistrates elected by the comitia tributa, because in those years a strict interpretation of the Constitution prevailed according to which a lex accepted by the comitia tributa may regulate magistrates elected by that comitia, and a lex accepted by the comitia centuriata may regulate only the centuriate magistrates. Consul Minucia Strabo presented first only one rogatio which discussed both the tribal and the centuriate magistrates' resignations in one law. She later corrected it and divided the proposal into two rogationes, one about the tribal magistrates' resignations, to be passed by the tribal comitia, and another about the centuriate magistrates, to be passed by the centuriate comitia. The tribal one passed, the centuriate law failed. Editors of the tabularium of the day, for an unknown reason, decided to put the original, unified law which discussed the resignations of both types of magistrates in one law as the primary text of this lex, but it was not correct, and it was never a law. B. Before any modifications are implemented by the lex Arria Tullia de quibusdam legibus obsoletis abrogandis corrigundisve, the following changes are to be made. By this edict, the unofficial draft text is to be removed from the published lex Minucia and the valid version of the lex Minucia, as accepted by the comitia, is to be published. This is verified through records in the Forum Romanum and attestations of the Curator rei informaticae. Commentary from this edict should be published accordingly with the lex.

VI. The lex Arria Tullia de quibusdam legibus obsoletis abrogandis corrigundisve contains an instruction to change the preamble of the lex Minucia de eiuratione magistratuum. The new text, as voted on and accepted by the comitia, is perceived to have been corrupted or otherwise contains editorial errors. The new preamble of the lex Arria Tullia would have been an exact sentence, unchanged, from the previous version of the preamble, in a form that was contradictory to the other changes in this lex. By this edict, section V.A. of the lex Arria Tullia de quibusdam legibus obsoletis abrogandis corrigundisve is not implementable, and is disregarded when considering the modifications of the lex Arria Tullia to the lex Minucia.

VII. The lex Octavia de sermone references the now defunct Yahoo groups list. By this edict, a praetorian comment is to be lodged against article IV.A. It is to specify for clarity, as follows:

“The previous Yahoo group list mentioned is now defunct. The current general discussion mailing list is currently https://groups.io/g/TheForumRomanum.”

VIII. The lex Galeria de privatis rebus references the now defunct position of the magister aranearius. This office has now merged with the current curator rei informaticae. By this edict, a praetorian comment is to specify that the instance of “magister aranearius” is to be understood to be the “curator rei informaticae”.
