Introduction

This lex serves the purpose of refining Nova Roma's offices to better serve the interests of the State. In recent years an insufficient number of qualified candidates stood for election to these positions, leaving them vacant. This lex addresses the need for a more effective and easier alternative for filling these positions; and to give the Senate more direct oversight especially concerning the filling of the electoral magistracies which conduct, count and oversee the elections of officers in Nova Roma.

This lex supersedes and repeals all previous leges and Senatus Consulta in this jurisdictional area. This includes but is not limited to the following:

http://novaroma.org/nr/Lex_Equitia_de_vigintisexviris_(Nova_Roma)

http://novaroma.org/nr/Lex_Galeria_de_editore_commentariorum_(Nova_Roma)

http://novaroma.org/nr/Lex_Apula_de_magistro_araneario_(Nova_Roma)

http://novaroma.org/nr/Lex_Labiena_de_iure_edicendi_vigintisexvirorum_(Nova_Roma)

((I. Abolishing all current vigintisexviratus offices))

Effective immediately the positions that were covered under the lex Equitia de vigintisexviris are no longer independent offices that are elected by the Comitia Populi Tributa; nor are the offices listed in this lex to be classified as vigintisexviri positions.

((II. Abolishing the magistracy of rogator, transforming it to a censorial apparitor))

Effective immediately the office of the rogator, whose responsibility was focused on registering qualified voters, issuing voter codes, and administering the routine citizenship application process reverts to the censores office to be filled at the discretion of the censors’. This position, if filled will have the same ranking and distinction as a scribe appointment with all the same rights, responsibilities and century point allocations therein. The independent office of rogator is now extinct.

((III. The new office of diribitores)

Effective immediately the offices of custodes and diribitors are combined.

A. A new office is created called diribitores with four positions available to be appointed by the Senate by proposal of the presiding magistrate. A minimum of two individuals must fill this position at all times.

B. The diribitores will have the duty to count the votes and tie breaking in the voting processes in the Comitia Centuriata, Comitia Populi Tributa and Comitia Plebis Tributa – in compliance and in accord with the leges governing the vote count and ties breading procedures governing each Comitia.

C. The Senate may appoint individuals for suffect (partial term), full year terms, or multiple years.

D. Since the diribitores are by definition privy to the details of the election process, they may not run for any elective office while they serve in office as diribitores.

((E.)) Appointment of Diribitors: As senatorial appointments the presiding magistrate (i.e. consul, praetor or tribune of the plebs) may present individuals to the Senate for consideration. The Senate has the right and privilege to accept or reject candidates for the diribitor position(s).

((F.)) In the event of an emergency: An emergency is described as having 20 days or less to an upcoming Comitia summons – the Presiding magistrate may issue an edicta appointing individual(s) pro-tempore to serve as a diribitore – for one election cycle only. To be specific it means only one summons of one Comita only (Comitia Centuriata, Comitia Populi Tributa, and Comitia Plebis Tributa). No individual can be named Pro Tempore Diribitor for more than one time in a calendar year. However that individual may be considered by the Senate for a suffect appointment.

((IV. Editor commentariorum and magister aranearius))

Editor commentariorum and magister aranearius (webmaster) are the two remaining positions.

((A.)) The editor commentariorum shall be responsible for the production, publication, and distribution of the official publications sponsored by the State. The editor commentariorum shall be appointed by a vote of the senate. The editor commentariorum shall be appointed for suffect (Partial term), full year terms or multiple years . The standard Senatorial appointment should be for a minimum of 2 years.

((B.)) The magister aranearius shall be responsible for the design, maintenance, and any alteration of the official web site(s) sponsored by the State. The magister aranearius shall solicit input from the other magistrates and institutions of Nova Roma regarding content for the web site. The magister aranearius may be appointed for suffect (partial term), full year term or multiple years. The standard Senatorial appointment should be for a minimum of 2 years.

((V. Census points))

The positions of the diribitor, editor commentariorum and magister aranearius shall receive the same number of points as the office of quaestor.


Notes

The curator rei informaticae added custom numbering and titles in double parentheses to those paragraphs were it was missing from the original text. The grammatically incorrect text of Section V. "The Century Points for the positions of the Diribitore, Editor Commentariorum and Magister Aranearius shall receive the same number of points as the Office of Quaestor." was corrected to the current one.
