Word is that you've ordered Ampelius and some other senators from Sardinia, as is claimed, to appear before the appropriate court on criminal charges. I now hear they've been transferred to another tribunal.

If your own recollection matches this account, I think it's only fair that you attend to the enforcement of your own rulings.

Latin / Greek Original

Fama est, quod Ampelium et quosdam alios de Sardinia, ut adseritur, senatores
in crimen adductos forum conpetens observare praeceperis. hos nunc audio ad aliud
indicium esse translatos. quare si ipse ita a te reminisceris iudicatum, aequum esse
i^ arbitror, ut statutis tuis adesse digneris.

XXXnn ante a. 390.
