The Legal Procedure of Cicero's Time  (English, Paperback, Greenidge A. H. J.)

1901. Greenidge writes in the Preface that the leading design of this book is to furnish students of Cicero's writings with a clue to the chief legal difficulties which they will meet with in their reading. These difficulties are far more numerous in the sphere of procedure than in that of substantive law; and, as it was quite impossible to write a work of moderate compass which dealt with both branches of the subject, I have thought it better to confine my attention mainly to the former; although, as will easily be understood, it has proved impossible to deal thoroughly with the procedure of the period which I have treated, without touching on many questions of pure law; so intimately are these bound up with the forms in which they were presented to the courts. Partial Contents: Book I. Civil Procedure. Part I. The Courts of the Monarchy and Early Republic; Part II. The Courts of the Ciceronian Period; and Book II. Criminal Procedure.
