Note 2173 — Chapter XV · COMITIAL LEGISLATION From Hortensius to the Gracchi 287-134
Reading edition
See the literature on the ius postliminii in Schiller, Röm. Staatsalt. 618. There were certain cases of restoration of citizenship, however, which were thought to require a comitial vote; Cic. Balb. 11. 28. But on this question opinions differed; cf. Mommsen, Röm. Staatsr. iii. 656, n. 1.
