We order that appeals taken from the decisions of a Praetor, General, or any other magistrate in Sicily, shall be brought in this royal city before the Quaestor; and We desire that the latter shall hear the causes of appeal, render the decision, and refer it to Us, in order that it may be affirmed. If any other civil matter should arise, such, for instance, as the confirmation of a defender, or the decree of a municipal magistrate of a Sicilian city, application must also be made to the Quaestor, and the confirmation shall be made by him, for he is invested with Our full authority.
