CAECĬLĬA DE CENSŌRĬBUS or CENSŌRIA (B.C. 54), proposed by Metellus
Scipio, repealed a Clodia Lex (B.C. 58), which had prescribed
certain regular forms of proceeding for the censors in exercising
their functions as inspectors of mores, and had required the
concurrence of both censors to inflict the nota censoria. When
a senator had been already convicted before an ordinary court,
the lex permitted the censors to remove him from the senate in a
summary way.
CAECĬLĬA DE VECTĪGĀLĬBUS (B.C. 62), released lands and harbours in
Italy from the payment of taxes and dues (_portoria_). The only
vectigal remaining after the passing of this lex was the Vicesima.
CAECĬLĬA DĪDĬA (B.C. 98) forbade the proposing of a Lex Satura, on
the ground that the people might be compelled either to vote for
something which they did not approve, or to reject something which
they did approve, if it was proposed to them in this manner. This
lex was not always operative.
