Leptĭnes

（Λεπτίνης). An Athenian, known only as the proposer of a law taking away all special exemptions from the burden of public charges (ἀτέλειαι τῶν λειτουργιῶν), against which the oration of Demosthenes is directed, usually known as the Oration against Leptines, B.C. 355. The argument of Demosthenes is directed to the repeal of the law, and was successful in its object. See Demosthenes.
