Note 2320 — Chapter XVI · COMITIAL LEGISLATION From the Gracchi to Sulla 134-82
Reading edition
CIL. i. 198. 16. There was under the republic a census qualification for the knights who acted as iudices (Cic. Phil. i. 8. 20), though we have no authority that the limit of four hundred thousand sesterces existed before the principate. Originally Mommsen supplied the lacuna with a statement of the money qualification as here given; but afterward, changing his mind, he filled the gap with “equum publicum habebit habuerit.”
