Lex Aurelia iudiciaria

The Lex Aurelia iudicaiaria was a Roman law, introduced by the praetor Lucius Aurelius Cotta in 70 BC. The law defined the composition of the jury of the court investigating extortion, corruption and misconduct in office, the perpetual quaestio de repetundis.[1] Previously exclusive to senators, the juries henceforth included equites and tribuni aerarii.[2][3]
