Ad Quintum Mucium libri
Ex libro XI
Dig. 4,8,14Pomponius libro undecimo ad Quintum Mucium. Sed si compromissum sine die confectum est, necesse est arbitro omnimodo dies statuere, partibus scilicet consentientibus, et ita causam disceptari: quod si hoc praetermiserit, omni tempore cogendus est sententiam dicere.
Pomponius, On Quintus Mucius, Book XI. If the matter is submitted to arbitration without appointing a day for it to be heard, it is absolutely necessary for the arbiter to fix one, of course with the consent of the parties, and the case should then be decided; because if he should fail to do this, he can be compelled to make his award at any time.
