Ex libro XXIV
Gaius, On the Provincial Edict, Book XXIV. When the property of a debtor is sold, a creditor who is a blood-relative is preferred to a stranger. Where there are several creditors, and all of them are not relations of the debtor, he to whom the largest sum of money is due shall be preferred.
