De fideicommissaria hereditatis petitione

(Concerning Suits for the Recovery of Trust Estates.)

1Ul­pia­nus li­bro sex­to de­ci­mo ad edic­tum. Ex or­di­ne oc­cur­rit ac­tio quae pro­po­ni­tur his, qui­bus re­sti­tu­ta est he­redi­tas. nam quis­quis sus­ce­pit11Die Großausgabe liest sus­ce­pe­rit statt sus­ce­pit. re­sti­tu­tam he­redi­ta­tem ex se­na­tus con­sul­to, ex quo ac­tio­nes trans­eunt, fi­dei­com­mis­sa­ria he­redi­ta­tis pe­ti­tio­ne uti pot­erit.

1Ulpianus, On the Edict, Book XVI. Next in order comes the action open to parties to whom an estate is delivered. Anyone who receives an estate which has been delivered in compliance with a decree of the Senate in pursuance of which rights of action pass, can make use of the action for the recovery of an estate founded upon a trust:

2Pau­lus li­bro vi­cen­si­mo ad edic­tum. Quae ac­tio ea­dem re­ci­pit, quae he­redi­ta­tis pe­ti­tio ci­vi­lis.

2Paulus, On the Edict, Book XX. And this action has the same effect as a civil suit for the recovery of an estate.

3Ul­pia­nus li­bro sex­to de­ci­mo ad edic­tum. Nec in­ter­est, mi­hi quis ro­ga­tus fue­rit re­sti­tue­re an ei cui he­res ex­ti­ti. sed et si bo­no­rum pos­ses­sor sim eius cui fi­dei­com­mis­sa­ria he­redi­tas re­lic­ta est vel alius suc­ces­sor, per hanc ac­tio­nem ex­per­i­ri pot­e­rim. 1Hanc ac­tio­nem scien­dum est ad­ver­sus eum, qui re­sti­tuit he­redi­ta­tem, non com­pe­te­re. 2Hae au­tem ac­tio­nes mi­hi dan­tur, quae he­redi et in he­redem com­pe­tunt.

3Ulpianus, On the Edict, Book XVI. Nor does it make any difference whether a person was requested to deliver the property to me or to him to whom I am the heir; and if I am the possessor of the estate of some other successor of the party to whom it was left in trust, I can proceed by means of this action. 1It must be remembered that this action will not lie against anyone who surrenders the estate. 2These actions which are granted to me can be brought in favor of my heir, as well as against him.
