Against Apaturius
The formal arbitration process set up between Apaturius and Parmeno, involving Phocritus, Aristocles, and the speaker, which collapses amid accusations of document tampering.

no, before the action had been brought, while I was lying ill and not knowing whether I should recover, and was denouncing the defendant to all who came to see me as the one who dealt the first blow and was the perpetrator of most of the maltreatment I received,—it was then, I say, that he would have come to my house without delay, bringing with him a number of witnesses;
