Role of arbiter in Roman classical law

Original language description

The paper deals with the role of the jury in Roman court proceedings. It presents the basiccharacteristics of Roman civil procedure in the classical period. It points out the differences be-tween the older period of so-called proceedings by means of statutory actions (legis actiones)and proceedings by means of so-called procedural formulas. The emphasis is on the classicalperiod of Roman law. The court proceedings of this period differ in substance from both theolder and the Justinian proceedings. The judicial process of the Emperor Justinian is basedon the type of extra ordinem procedure that was introduced during the reign of the Romanemperors. This procedure has all the characteristics of a modern judicial procedure – the trialis presided over by a professional judge, appointed by the State and trained in law, the legal ef-fects of the proceedings occur when the action is served, there is a possibility of appeal withina hierarchical system of appeal courts, etc. The court proceedings under classical law are muchless formal and based on greater cooperation between the parties; the parties themselvesdetermine the conditions under which they will submit to the judge‘s judgment, and the stateonly authorizes the parties‘ agreement. The parties also choose the arbitrator in whom theyhave confidence and to whom they entrust the fate of their dispute. The arbitrator focuses noton the legal evaluation of the dispute, but only on proving particular facts that are alleged bythe parties during the process. The arbitrator‘s judgment itself is as binding and immutable asthat of a modern court and can also be – very quickly and effectively executed by the power ofthe state.
