the Romans asserted their entire
independence in the domain Of law.
Their innovations had the stamp OF
originality. Bat these did not COM
prise any close connection between
bar and bench. It is noteworthy
that during very long period in
the history Of Roman law there was
no exact counterpart Of our Judge.
The maglstratus was a public oil
cal charged with the administra-
ton of law. The jpdcx was a sne-
cies OF referee appointed by the
magistrate to hear and report upon
a particular case. Then there wa,
an arb!tcr who ed alone or with
others in arbitration cases (ar5i-

questions.
