"Seems to me alot of supposition and theory... I sincerely hope that Quintus Ameilius has proof...
That being said, the charges must be answered... since the charges are against the Praetor himself, a Propraetor must be recalled to judge the trial... we have two.. Spurius Vitruvius Habitus and Quintus Marius Parthicus. One of these men must be voted upon to act as judge. The accused has the option of asking for another's name to be put forward if he feels that neither potential candidate has his best interests at heart, the only rule is that the candidate MUST be currently assigned to an office of Praetor or above. Whomever is elected judge will control the trial process from beginning to end...
That is the Constitution as I read it..."
