The Freedom of the Seas (Mare Liberum) Hugo Grotius 1 citation
The praetor's edict is quoted-in-substance as a formal legal source.
Labeo, for example, in commenting on the praetor’s edict, ‘Let nothing be done in a public river or on its bank, by which a landing or a channel for shipping be obstructed’, said there was a similar interdict which applied to the sea, namely, ‘Let nothing be done on the sea or on the seashore by which a harbor, a landing, or a channel for shipping be obstructed’.
