Sententiarum libri
Ex libro IV
Dig. 1,5,14Paulus libro quarto sententiarum. Non sunt liberi, qui contra formam humani generis converso more procreantur: veluti si mulier monstrosum aliquid aut prodigiosum enixa sit. partus autem, qui membrorum humanorum officia ampliavit, aliquatenus videtur effectus et ideo inter liberos connumerabitur.
Paulus, Sentences, Book IV. Those beings are not children who are born formed in some way which is contrary to the likeness of the human race; as, for instance, where a woman brings forth something monstrous or unnatural. A child, however, which has more than the ordinary number of human limbs seems to be, to some extent, completely formed, and therefore may be included among children.
Dig. 29,2,95Paulus libro quarto sententiarum. Recusari hereditas non tantum verbis, sed etiam re potest et alio quovis indicio voluntatis.
Dig. 32,4Paulus libro quarto sententiarum. A patre vel domino relictum fideicommissum, si hereditas ei non quaeratur, ab emancipato filio vel servo manumisso utilibus actionibus postulatur: penes eos enim quaesitae hereditatis emolumentum remanet.
Paulus, Sentences, Book IV. Where a trust is left to be executed by a father or a master, and the estate is not obtained by him who has emancipated his son, or manumitted his slave, the beneficiary of the trust can bring a prætorian action against the said son or slave, because the profits of the estate which he has acquired remain in his hands.
Dig. 32,21Paulus libro quarto sententiarum. Nutu etiam relinquitur fideicommissum, dummodo is nutu relinquat, qui et loqui potest, nisi superveniens morbus ei impedimento sit. 1Fideicommissum relictum et apud eum, cui relictum est, ex causa lucrativa inventum extingui placuit, nisi defunctus aestimationem quoque eius praestari voluit. 2Columnis aedium vel tignis per fideicommissum relictis ea tantummodo amplissimus ordo praestari voluit nulla aestimationis facta mentione, quae sine domus iniuria auferri possunt.
Paulus, Sentences, Book IV. A trust can also be left by a mere motion of the head, provided he who does so is also able to speak, unless some disease with which he is suddenly attacked prevents him from using his voice. 1It has been established that where a trust is left, and the property to which it relates is ascertained to belong to the party to whom it was left by reason of a valuable consideration, the trust will be extinguished, unless the deceased intended that the appraised value of the property should also be paid to the owner of the same. 2Where the columns or timbers of a house are left under a trust, the highest authority has decided that only such parts of the building can be delivered which may be removed without injuring it, and that no statement of the appraised value of the same shall be made.
Dig. 38,10,9Paulus libro quarto sententiarum. Στέμματα cognationum directo limite in duas lineas separantur, quarum altera superior, altera inferior: ex superiore autem et secundo gradu transversae lineae pendent, quas omnes latiore tractatu habito in librum singularem conteximus.
Paulus, Sentences, Book IV. The direct line of relationship is divided into two parts, one of which is the ascending and the other the descending. Collateral lines are also derived from the ascending line as well as from the second degree. We have explained more fully in a special Book everything which has reference to all these.
Dig. 40,11,4Paulus libro quarto sententiarum. Nec filio patroni invito libertus natalibus suis restitui potest: quid enim interest, ipsi patrono an filiis eius fiat iniuria?
