Institutes of Roman Law
Roman jurist who held that the SC Neronianum could confirm a legacy void for defect of the legatee's person.
§ 218. Ideoque si extraneo legatum fuerit, inutile est legatum; adeo ut Sabinus existimauerit ne quidem ex 〈senatus〉-consulto Neroniano posse conualescere: nam eo, inquit, senatusconsulto ea tantum confirmantur quae uerborum uitio iure ciuili non ualent, non quae propter ipsam personam legatarii non deberentur. sed Iuliano et Sexto placuit etiam hoc casu ex senatusconsulto confirmari legatum. nam …
scio tamen Iuliano placuisse, in eo legato quod sinendi modo relinquitur idem iuris esse quod in fideicommissis;
Julianus, however, held that a legacy bequeathed in the form of permission is on the same footing as a trust, and this is now the prevalent doctrine.
