Litigation In Roman Law
Most accounts of how the classical Romans sued each other tend to show the opponents willingly cooperating under the guidance of a magistrate, until their case was ready for trial. This book paints a picture of litigation that is far less polite and far less orderly. It examines how the rules of procedure coped with the typical pretrial delays.
