A member of plebeian nobility in easy circumstances young Labeo entered public life early. Marcus Antistius rose quickly to the praetor ship but undisguised antipathy for the new regime and brusque manner he occasionally gave expression to Republican sympathies in the Roman Senate Senate what Tacitus ref Ann. iii. 75 ref calls his incorrupta libertas proved an obstacle to his advancement. His rival, Gaius Ateius Capito jurist Ateius Capito , a loyal client of new ruling powers, was promoted by Caesar Augustus to the consul ate even though Labeo was in line for the job Smarting under the wrong done him, Labeo declined the office when it was offered to him in a subsequent year. ref Tac.

She was a deaconess of the early church . According to legend, she was the daughter of a Roman civil servant who was secretly Christian, and raised his daughter in the faith, and she became a deaconess in the Christian Church church .

The lex Aquilia was a Roman law which provided compensation to the owners of property injured by someone s fault. The provisions of the Lex Aquilia The lex Aquilia strictly, a plebiscite was possibly enacted in 286 BC , or at some other point in the 3rd century BC. It was concerned with damage done from damnum iniuria datum , damage unlawfully inflicted , a kind of a delict or tort , albeit with differences from tort as known in modern common law systems and the Scots Law of Delict. The most pertinent provisions were in the first and third chapters of the law. Only a limited subset of torts was included in the law as enacted. The first section stated that someone who unlawfully, or wrongfully as it later became known, killed another man s slavery slave s or herd animal pecus should pay the owner the highest value that the slave or the beast had over the past year. Ut qui servum servamve alienum alienamve quadrupedem vel pecudem iniuria occiderit, quanti id in eo anno plurimi fuit, tantum aes dare domino damnas esto. D. 9.2.2.pr If anyone wrongfully kills another s male or female slave or four footed herd animal, let him be ordered to pay the owner whatever its highest value was in the preceding year. According to Gaius s Institutes, the second chapter of the lex covered the following scenario By the second head an action is established to recover the amount against the adstipulator, who, in fraud of the stipulator, has formally released a debt.
