In sect. 8 Cicero shows that Archias was a citizen of Heraclia and so came under the first requirement of the law; in sect. 9 he claims that his client had also complied with the other two requirements (domicilium and professio).

civitatem datam, i.e. by the law before cited.

professione, list of declarations.

conlegio: the praetors, when regarded as a whole, could be spoken of as a "board."

cum, while.

Appi, i.e. Appius Claudius, husband of Caecilia (the friend of Roscius: see Rosc. Am., sect. 50) and father of the infamous Clodius.

Gabini: see Introd. to Pompey's Military Command.

damnationem: he was condemned, B.C. 54, for extortion on complaint of the Achaeans.

L. Lentulum: nothing further is known of him; he probably presided over a court (judices) to determine cases involving citizenship under the new law.
