Publicorum libri
Ex libro II
Dig. 3,2,22Marcellus libro secundo publicorum. Ictus fustium infamiam non importat, sed causa, propter quam id pati meruit, si ea fuit, quae infamiam damnato irrogat. in ceteris quoque generibus poenarum eadem forma statuta est.
Marcellus, Public Affairs, Book II. Blows with rods do not of themselves cause infamy, but the reason for which the person deserved to suffer the punishment does, if it was of such a nature as to render him who was convicted infamous. The same rule also applies to other kinds of punishment.
