1. On Public Prosecution
- Marcel: "On Public Prosecution, Volume 1" - Not all trials on unlawful acts are public prosecutions. Only those conducted under the law of public prosecution, such as the Julian Law on treason, the Julian Law on adultery, the Cornelian Law on murder and poisoning, the Pompeian Law on parricide, the Julian Law on embezzlement, the Cornelian Law on wills, the Julian Law on private violence, the Julian Law on public violence, the Julian Law on electoral bribery, the Julian Law on extortion, and the Julian Law on grain supply, are public prosecutions.
- Paul: "Annotations to the Judgments of the Magistrates, Volume 15" - In public prosecutions, some are death penalty-related, while others are non-death penalty-related. Death penalty-related trials will result in the conviction of the defendant to death or exile, i.e., deprivation of water and fire: through these punishments, the defendant is stripped of their civic status. Other penalties are not referred to as exile but should be called banishment: in such cases, the defendant retains their civic rights. Non-death penalty-related trials will result in fines or physical coercion against the defendant.
- Ulpius: "Annotations to the Sabine Law, Volume 35" - Public prosecutions can be brought against male and female defendants before their deaths.
