Pandect', or Digesta. In the last month of the year AD 530, Justinian, by a constitution addressed to Tribonian, empowered him to name a commission for the purpose of forming a code out of the writings of those jurists who had enjoyed the Jus respondendi, or, as it is expressed by the emperor, 'antiquorum prudentium quibus auctoritatem conscribendarum interpretandarumque legum sacratissimi principes pr'buerunt.' The compilation, however, comprises extracts from some writers of the republican period, Const. Deo Auctore. Ten years were allowed for the completion of the work.

Still, even in this sense it is not in any way to be confounded with property (proprietas).

Ownership is the legal capacity to operate on a thing according to a man's pleasure, and to exclude everybody else from doing so. Possession, in the sense of detention, is the actual exer...
