Introduction

Ius edicendi, the right to issue edicta (edicts) is enshrined in the Nova Roma constitution, defined as "the executive resolutions of the officers of the corporation" as per I.C. in the Constitutional Basis.

Edicta form part of the hierarchy of legal authority and legislation within Nova Roma. The constitution is the highest legal authority and takes precedence over all other legislation and any edicta. Below senatus consulta ultima, a legally appointed Dictator’s edicta takes precedence. After all other leges, decreta and normal senatus consulta, various magisterial edicta are permitted in order of office precedence as listed in IV.A. of the constitution.

For edicts to take effect, they must be published to the Forum Romanum, the official list in accordance with Lex Vedia de ratione edictorum. They will then be published here for record keeping. Edicts are also subject to ius intercessionis, intercessio (intercession; a veto) by magistrates of higher authority or from a Tribunus Plebis.

Edicta of the Magistratus Extraordinarii

The magistratus extraordinarii are those offices that are by exception, not part of the central elected government of Nova Roma. Offices include Dictator, Promagistratus (Promagistrate), and special commissioners. A typical promagistratus that can issue edicta are governors. Special commissioners include offices such as the praefectus rei publicae administrandae (chief executive officer) and the curator rei informaticae (chief information officer).

Due to the importance of these offices, and in some cases an absence of term limits, the edicta of the magistratus extraordinarii can be enduring. The edicta of these magistrates can last multiple years, remaining valid, so long as the issuing incumbent remains in the authorized office. Governors' edicta remain valid for the duration of their appointment, in accordance with the Lex Arminia de ministris provincialibus.

As per IV.B.1 of the constitution, a dictator's "...edicta, or the parts of an edictum that are not in conflict with a lex, the day-to-day management, operational actions and decisions implemented by the dictator for Nova Roma that do not create new law conflicting with laws of higher legal precedence, will not become reversed or annulled automatically after the tenure of the dictatura, only the changes to the legal system of Nova Roma which would be in conflict with existing leges, Senatus consulta or decreta".

The edicta of the magistratus extraordinarii are listed by office below:

EDICTUM PRAETORIUM DE COMITIIS CENTURIATIS CONVOCANDIS ET DE SUFFRAGIIS FERENDIS


I. I hereby convene and I summon a Non-Corporate Session of the Comitia Centuriata to gather in the Free Forum of Nova Roma (the "Saving Nova Roma" mailing list) in order to vote on proposed legislations, the rogatio Aurelia de legionibus and the rogatio Aurelia de familiis gladiatoriis et ludis gladiatoriis.

The Contio begins now immediately 14:30 PM Rome Time today, a.d. VIII Kal. Ian. C. Claudio Quadrato et T. Domitio Dracone coss. (25th December 2018).

II.. The auspices were taken by Pontifex Cn. Cornelius Lentulus authorized by Augur C. Claudius Quadratus, and were favorable.

III. Authorized by the consular edict of consuls C. Claudius and T. Domitius, the time between this convening of the Comitia and the start of voting is hereby shortened from the period required by the lex Cornelia de ratione comitiorum centuriatorum, because of the urgency due to the end of the year and pressure from partner organizations to regulate this aspect of our activities. Under the accelerated procedure, contio-type debates are allowed until even the very last day of the voting session. The schedule for this Non-Corporate Session of the Comitia Centuriata:

Contio will begin at 14:30 PM Rome Time on 25 December 2018 Contio will end at 24:00 PM Rome Time on 31 December 2018 Voting will begin at 15:00 PM Rome Time on 24 December 2018 Voting will end at 24:00 PM Rome Time on 31 December 2018

IV. Authorized by the NON-CORPORATE SENATUS CONSULTUM ULTIMUM ON THE CONTINUED OPERATION OF THE RES PUBLICA DURING THE CRISIS, the voting laws are temporarily changed as follows:

V.A. As the perpetrators of the illegal dictatorship and the so-called “corporate” senate still maintain control of the corporate infrastructure, communication channels and the normal voting tools of Nova Roma, refuse to defer to lawfully established procedure, disallow any exercise of electoral process and willfully impede legislation, voting shall be conducted by e-mail. The e-mails containing the votes shall be sent to the following e-mail address, designated as the Cista:

cista2771@gmail.com

V.B. The voter's e-mail must contain the full Roman name of the voter and the votes on the rogationes (law proposals), which can be: V.B.1. uti rogas, abbreviated as UR or VR (yes), V.B.2. antiquo, abbrevated as A (no), V.B.3. abstineo, abbreviated as ABS (abstain).

Voters must vote on TWO law proposals and they must specify which vote refers to which proposal.

VI. The diribitores appointed by consul C. Claudius shall conduct the technical organization of the voting process, including the vote counting.

VII. The text of the proposals will be sent as a separate announcement.


Datum est a.d. VIII Kal. Ian. C. Claudio Quadrato et T. Domitio Dracone II coss. (25th December 2018) in the Year of the 20th Anniversary, the Sacred Year of Concordia.
