CALPURNĬA DE RĔPĔTUNDIS. [[Repetundae].]
CĂNŬLĒIA. (B.C. 445) established connubium between the patres and plebs, which had been taken away by the law of the Twelve Tables.
CASSĬA (B.C. 104), proposed by the tribune L. Cassius Longinus, did not allow a person to remain a senator who had been convicted in a judicium populi, or whose imperium had been abrogated by the populus.
CASSĬA empowered the dictator Caesar to add to the number of the patricii, to prevent their extinction.
CASSĬA AGRĀRĬA, proposed by the consul Sp. Cassius, B.C. 486. This is said to have been the first agrarian law. It enacted that of the land taken from the Hernicans, half should be given to the Latins, and half to the plebs, and likewise that part of the public land possessed by the patricians should be distributed among the plebeians. This law met with the most violent opposition, and appears not to have been carried. Cassius was accused of aiming at the sovereignty, and was put to death. [[Ager Publicus].]
CASSĬA TĂBELLĀRĬA. [[Leges Tabellariae].]
CASSĬA TĔRENTĬA FRŪMENTĀRĬA (B.C. 73) for the distribution of corn among the poor citizens and the purchasing of it.
CINCĬA DE DŌNIS ET MŪNĔRĬBUS, a plebiscitum passed in the time of the tribune M. Cincius Alimentus (B.C. 204). It forbade a person to take any thing for his pains in pleading a cause. In the time of Augustus, the Lex Cincia was confirmed by a senatus-consultum, and a penalty of four times the sum received was imposed on the advocate. The law was so far modified in the time of Claudius, that an advocate was allowed to receive ten sestertia; if he took any sum beyond that, he was liable to be prosecuted for repetundae. It appears that this permission was so far restricted in Trajan’s time, that the fee could not be paid till the work was done.
CLAUDĬA, passed under the emperor Claudius, took away the agnatorum tutela in case of women.
CLAUDĬA de Senatoribus, B.C. 218 (Liv. xxi. 63), the provisions of which are alluded to by Cicero as antiquated and dead in his time.
