Against Olympiodorus
The kin of the speaker and Olympiodorus, involved in discussing claims, witnessing the agreement, and judging the parties' conduct.

Kin of the defendant (and of the accusers) who communicated the impeachment and its charges to him and to whom he gave his initial answer.

My relatives communicated the impeachment to me by letter, and also the charges which they made against me in the Assembly when they brought the impeachment in.
